they have matching bed head...

how gorgeous was blake in the opening scene of gossip girl this week? i loved her pale coral earrings, perfect bedhead pony and the dress was unreal. long sleeve mini's are so chic. plus, the mint green/teal colour was amazing. a must have colour, especially on blonds. the episode was actually pretty good this week too, finally!

the met

my met favourites. every year it's an overload of glamour and the most beautiful dresses. i loved leighton (in marc jacobs) and taylor, all bohemian and flowy . the ultimate 90's grunge slip dresses. leighton was perfectly styled. i adored the headpiece and the floral print, my runner up for best dressed. i thought taylor embodied a young drew barrymore in ralph lauren and i love the idea of that dress as a wedding gown. anne hathaway (in valentino) and camille belle make the list for perfect sweetheart necklines, my weakness. camille was especially stunning in jason wu, both at the gala in red and at the after party in green. stam had my #1 model look. i adored the dark purple colour of her rachel roy, her perfect gold jewels and how it hugged every curve. you don't have to show everything to be sexy, **cough** blake**:) + her hair and make up = flawless. i loved katy perry's light up cute circuit confection because it was fun and very true to her personal style. sometimes celebrities lose themselves in big gowns but katy rocked katy. finally, i wasn't disappointed by two of my favourite style icons kate bosworth and sienna miller. sienna looked so radiant in pucci with jude by her side, but i think kate's beaded retro inspired valentino dress was my top pick of the night.

hey isn't that the girl from gossip girl?

i wasn't going to post while in nyc, but i had to share the most incredible day of "oh my god" sightings.

it started with dree hemingway at intermix, not as tall as i expected but prettier wearing harem pants and carrying chanel,

then taylor momsen at topshop. she was wearing knock off chloe susans, ripped jeans, plaid and enough eyeliner to stock a mac. still, she looked very pretty and so t a l l.

finally the day capped off with kate lanphear in brooklyn. the elle goddess was rocking her fav. studded marc jacobs bag (seen above), converse and that bob, so tiny....

three blond blond blond babes.

fashion and beauty haul #2

this is my second haul video. it features recent beauty purchases from gosh and mac cosmetics, as well as all the goodies my parents picked up for me on their trip to portugal. i'm a very lucky girl.
as always, i appreciate feedback on these videos and if there are any particular things you'd like to see in them.
i will probably do another haul video after i return from my nyc trip next week, because i'm sure i'll be doing a lot of shopping.

***side note, how good is gossip girl and vampire diaries so far? i'm loving them. it was so sweet when chuck was trying to keep blair motivated on her school domination this week, he's the best. i;m also freakishly obsessed with hell's kitchen, which is weird as i've never watched the show before. i really want dave to win, team one armed bandit. he would fit in perfectly in whistler.

boot scoot

over the knee socks, scrunched down+knee high boots= a look i love.
so happy my mom got me a bunch on her trip.
these are an older pair and they have a great crochet detail.

i feel like you guys need a life update, but there's really not much going on.

i prepping for my nyc trip in a week and a half, working a lot and enjoying the fall.

i'm loving gossipgirl and vampire diaries. my sister bought me the jurassic park dvd so i'm hyped to watch that in the next few days and i'm excited to get away with the boy up north next week for a mini-break. he's a musician and he leaves on sunday to spend a few weeks writing at a cabin on the shores of lake huron. he'll have no car, tv, internet or other distractions, but i still get to come visit ;)

i wanna hold your hand

my reasons for posting this picture:

• it's chuck and vanessa (i know it's really ed westwick and jessica szohr but humor me)
  
• they both look amazing, great basics, great hair, great accessories and i love the pop of colour.
• gossip girl was back this week and the fashion was really stellar as was the last 5mins of the show, scandalous
• i love chuck bass ♥
• i'm also one of the few people who actually loves vanessa
• they're so cute together and they're holding hands ♥ * squeals with glee inside***
• i had to post this so paige could see it, we text each other after we watch each episode and dish on all the good bits, omfg paige! check them out.

*i promise to go back to being a grown adult in my next post and discuss only serious issues plaguing the fashion industry.
