My baby cares just for me.

I listen to this every morning, there's just something about Ella and Louis together. Her voice just serenades me, even though it's a bit melancholic it's just perfect. Then I play a little Nina Simone and it's great way to start off my morning.

I've got whole playlists of lovely ladies singing about heartbreak and romance, hearing that raw emotion just gets to me.

A prime example of that is Robyn singing acoustic. As everyone already knows she is fabulous but her acoustic sets are just amazing. You better believe I've cried to her sets more than once, and I wasn't even sad to begin with! She just brings it out of me.

I'm going to sleep, finally. Exams are done and I need to recuperate, my nerves are shot. Outfit post coming up today or tomorrow. have a lovely day folks.

 I am an avid lover of red nail polish so I just thought I would post some of my cheap favourites. I love a darker red that's still bright enough to be noticed in contrast to my all black attire. These are my favourite shades, and the ones that have worked the best although I have invested in clear top coats and base coats because that whole "guaranteed to last 5-10days" nonsense is the biggest lie since OJ Simpson. 
I'm currently wearing the Rimmel lasting finish PRO on the far right.
As for top coats I would recommend Seche Vite, or Sally Hansen Complete Care  extra moisturizing 4 in 1 treatment. My manicures end up last longer than a week thanks to these.

I am looking for a darker red bordering on black for spring because I'll be wearing lighter colours and looser clothing, so I'll be on the hunt, If anyone has favourites or recommendations please do share in the comments section!

One of these mornings you're going to rise up singin'

[fake] Leather Jacket (Forever 21), Cardigan (Sheinside), Top (Ebay), High Waisted BDG Jeans (Urban Outfitters), Doc Martens Drury boot from the Kensington Collection (Vixens and Angels),Double Spike Necklace (Ebay), Black Satchel (vjstyle) 

Salutations, I've had a rough day but I'm still truckin'. I only had one exam today so I was pretty casual today, I actually wore a crop top instead but I came home to find this lace top waiting for me so I decided to take a few pictures. Honestly after a dreary day, it's actually so nice to come home to a package sitting there all nice  neat waiting to be ripped open (haha I need to get my mind out of the gutter!)

The bag is a Proenza Schouler PS1 look a like that I had gotten for 30$ (they seem to have to come to their senses and upped the price by 20 dollars though, how disappointing.) These jeans I got on sale for 30 instead of 50 dollars because I am a sales shark, I literally just lurk about and emerge when sales appear. This cardigan came a few days ago and boy am I happy about it. I kept seeing it on my favourite bloggers and checked it out seeing as how I love shopping on Sheinside. I thought the price of 40 dollars was a little steep (in case you haven't noticed, i'm a cheapo y'all) but I loved it so much and decided I needed a "grownup cardigan" because I've never actually bought one, I would just inherit, borrow (a nice word for steal), or trade from my family and friends. It's really nice and warm and cozy I would recommend it to anyone who's on the fence about buying it, it's definitely worth it :)

I'm currently studying for my deferred midterm and my upcoming final exams. I'm dead tired and ridden with anxiety so this is my way of relaxing, making sets on polyvore. (Yes making sets with clothes I will never afford haha) I'll try not to make my posts too sparse and post a video to give away a few items this week. Fingers crossed I make it through this week.

I hope all is well to whomever reading!

But it's alright, It's okay, I got the time but the time don't pay.

Leather Jacket (Forever 21) Tank top (Zara) Studded Belt (Forever 21) Bucket Bag (ebay) Skirt (Mom's Old Skirt) Boots (Urban Outfitters) Studded Iphone Case (DIY)

So today I was going through an old stack of clothes that my mom was giving away while I was looking for my skull scarves (that are NOWHERE to be found. I'm still weeping) Somehow I found these old maxi knit skirts and they looked like they would fit so I tried them on and fell in love. I asked my mom about them and she said she was throwing them out because they were "outdated". I found some more stuff, as usual. Some of the stuff my mom throws/gives away is amazing. I always get so many inquiries on the clothes my mom passes down to me, they're usually one of a kind from old lines that are discontinued so I am forever grateful ^__^

I would have accessorized with one of my scarves but they're somehow missing, I feel like I left them in Montreal which is seriously stressing me out. but anyhow I took a few shots (I tried to smile) I had to goof off on the last one after being so serious.

Oh and I'll be posting a video soon to review all the items I received from Ebay and giving away a few items to anyone who would be interested!

PU Leather Platform wedges (ebay)  Giuseppe Zanotti sculpted wedges.

I can't post many outfit posts at the moment because it's so cold out and I need a new tripod (aspiring blogger problems amirite?) but I thought I would share this find. I've never personally been a huge fan of wedges for me as in I thought I couldn't find a pair wedges I would actually wear but I've always liked them on other people but I seem to be turning a new leaf. I actually bought a pair of creeper wedges (yes!) a few weeks ago which I'll eventually share and I'm semi eyeing these bad boys (pictured above) on ebay, I'm picturing outfits in my head and they seem like they could possibly really werrrk. Only hitch is I hit my ebay spending limit this month (I try to keep myself on budget) not to mention my savings took a hit a while ago. *sigh* I'm waiting this one out but in the meanwhile here's a few looks that include Zanotti wedges.
