Catching Dreams

Some of you may notice there's something a little different about my blog, maybe that it has a new name and layout? In addition to that my whole attitude towards blogging has changed. I am going to just go the flow and not stress out about posting or planning post just let them happen when they happen. The blog's new name actually randomly came to me while I was walking to work, oddly enough. I realized while I do love fancy and pretty things, I am most comfortable in leggings, motorcycle boots, free flowing tops and funky unique jewellery ( rather than expensive stuff). A lot of my style is inspired by bohemian and gypsy like fashion and recently my personality has changed to a more positive outlook and letting go of negativity. I decided let go off a lot of things that were holding me back and making me unhappy. And you know what? So many good things have happened since then like finding a good job (with amazing & fun co-workers) , finally getting out of debt and starting to be more independent from my parents. Enough with the deep stuff, let's get to the fun stuff...

Lipstick: Red Revival by Maybelline New York

Red lipstick is always something that I loved, the retro vixen feeling you get from wearing it. Sometimes I get a little self conscious wearing it because my lips are quite full as it is but I just forgot about and wore it with confidence. That's the best thing you can wear every day... Also I'm wearing one of my favourite rings my aunt and uncle gave me as a present years ago and it did used to be silver. I think it has the word compassion written in Sanskrit, which definitely a good thing to have to remind you of everyday to be compassionate.


Denim Shirt: Gap
Tank Top & Jeggins: Joe Fresh
Necklace: Forever 21
Boots: Madden Girl by Steve Madden ( The Shoe Company)

This outfit was from last week and I thoroughly enjoyed wearing it, especially since it had my all my favourites. My motorcycle/gypsy boots I have had for three years now and never want to get rid of them, even if the insides are fall apart.  I have also had an obsession with dream catchers lately, they seem to have a calming effect on me, I have a gorgeous image on one as my twitter background. I felt so free in dream catchers, butterflies and  gypsy boots. The butterfly nails were actually Sally Hansen Salon Effects nail polish strips, which I will be doing a review of soon, if you have been curious about trying them.

And more exciting news I finally got an I-phone (after much anticipation and planning) from Telus. I got a really good deal thanks to back to school promotions and a gift card from a friend. Funny things about getting the phone was that the sales person who sold me my current phone actually sold me my previous one which was three years ago. My case is from Griffin, is purple which is my favourite colour and has a paisley pattern etched into it. It maybe be hard to see

It's Time For A Change



To the few people who do read and follow my blog, I thank you very dearly and appreciate it. Recently I have been thinking more about the blogging world and how it can be a bit materialistic. I am wondering if I just enjoy reading blogs instead of having one, since I am actually a very private person. I realized that when starting the blog I was trying to portray something I wasn't, influenced by all the blogs I follow. I am going to be doing a whole over haul for the blog, new logo, layout and even name. Fashion is definitely something I have always loved and though about going into for a career but I have recently been considering it more lately. Possibly marketing or web design since I find creating layouts and logos. We'll see what the future holds...
