OTK Boots and Randomness

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009 | 68 Comments

Haven’t been online much. A friend of mine stayed with me this weekend. She wanted to go shopping for a Christmas dress so we went out to a lot of the department stores and boutiques. Mostly Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale’s though. Took these snaps at Neiman Marcus while she tried on some things

I was excited to get to wear my blazer out! :sparkleup:
It wasn’t too cold or too hot! PERFECT!
Went to the Nanette Lepore boutique. It has to be the prettiest boutique in the area (suck on that dior!)

One of the girls working there commented on my blazer. She said she can really find some great ones at the thrift store. That comment made my day! Hahahaa! I like brand things, but after a full day in upscale stores I needed some realistic financial savvy fashion comments!

I did pretty well with saving my money I guess, given the amount of cuteness ’round me (hello Marc by Marc lovely item temptation,) but I did try on some over the knee boots I ended up getting…

Found them at Bloomingdale’s. After looking at the $400+ price tag on all their OTK style boots I was feeling pretty defeated. Neiman Marcus didn’t even HAVE any OTK styles. Then I found some Calvin Klein’s on the clearance rack! OTK on clearance!? SWEET! Tried them on, LOVED THEM. I wasn’t going to get them though. Just because~ …I was talking myself out of them when Mike whipped out an extra 30% off coupon and took them to the register and bought them. HAHAHAAA! He said that these are good winter boots that’ll last. He knows my plight of trying to find OTK boots this season. I got them for $120 :good:

My favorite part about these is that they can be worn all the way up or folded down to be at the knee!

When I got home I was flipping through Pinky and Mike commented on how nearly all the boots in the magazine were OTK style and he smiled this sorta “win” grin. HAHAHAA

Anyway~~
I’m waiting for Mike to come from work and cook dinner. I’M HUNGRY! Speaking of food, aren’t these bear pancakes Momoeri made the cutest!? Looks easy too with just banana and those quick melt chocolate writers! :cake:


Nana dyed her hair from blonde to copper gold~ She also thinned out some of the extensions. It’s nice because it’ll help her look less generic in the shoots now, but damn, I still don’t like her with those extensions *saaaaad*!! I just loved her shorter locks and I think they fit her better. Now it’s sometimes hard to even tell it’s her in Popteen, haahaa! I just think she looks so generic now. Still gorgeous, but fades more into the background I guess.

I do love her current nails though!! They’re more my length, hahaaaaa! So I don’t feel that they’re impossible to achieve! I have everything for this look too, EXCEPT TIME! UGH!


I was going through ニコるん’s blog and stumbled upon this photo taken of some Gals at Disney Sea and I spotted one girl wearing those great jeffrey campbell fringe boots I tried on last March at Free People! :good:


Game news~~
Besides being busy with my friend this weekend, I haven’t been online much due to video game addiction too~ :haha:
We got Super Mario Bros Wii Sunday and have been playing it nonstop! It’s both nostalgic and new thanks to side-scrolling and co-op mode! Mike’s always Mario and I’m always yellow Toad whose random screams & squeals sound just like Princess Peach (for example, when tagging the half-way point don’t tell me that’s NOT Peach’s voice!)

Screenshot from IGN. We only play 2 players. I can’t imagine having 4! It’s gotta be pure madness!! It’s bad enough when Mike takes BOTH items from a coin box!! To have 3 other people scrambling around… insanity I bet! LOL


It’s so odd playing co-op though. I haven’t really played any of the Mario Bros since High School. I didn’t bother with the DS game and though I did pick it up during college now & then it was nothing compared to the marathon sessions of replay I did during High School with my “Super Mario All Stars!” But it’s also great to share in that classic OMGIHATEYOUPIRANHAPLANT rage the games always cause!

Just picked up Left 4 Dead 2 today too! Will play this later tonight when all 3 of us can play (Me, Mike, his Brother.) I already played the demo and have discovered the glory that is the machete in this new version! THANK YOU! IT’S GLORIOUS! Haahaa.

I really need to kill some zombies tonight too. PMS is enraging my emotions all day. Only thing about this game I don’t like is how long missions are. Before you know it 2 hours have passed and it’s midnight and your early train doesn’t wait for no one. LOL At least it’s New Orleans this time around, (close to home! hahahahaga)

PopSister and Buys

Tuesday, April 28th, 2009 | 61 Comments

I am completely fried (mentally!) Had an all-day conference today and then again tomorrow. The conference rooms are icy cold but it’s still crazy hot outside! And I’m so tired of hearing about TWITTEROMFFFFFFFGGGG! But anyway~ it had its productive moments/statements. The food was dreadful though. And this year no snack foods during breaks!? WTF!? I might lose 5lbs just b/c their lack of feeding me! Anyway~



I just had a few things to say about PopSister! I know I got it on Saturday and I tried blogging sooner but that failed.

Along with the magazine my friend sent me this really cute Tsubasa hair clip! It’s featured in the issue too :noki4:



Anyway, LOVE POPSISTER! I like it a lot more than Popteen. It’s more casual but also more grown up (ie. the outfits don’t show as much skin which is nice!) I also noticed that PopSister refers to itself as a “street” magazine. A gyaru street magazine sounds a bit redundant but you can tell that they’re doing more of a casual angle. I like that personally because My work-life outfits are more CanCam/Soup style (lol odd pairing but it best describes it!) and my non-work style is much more young & casual.
