Patent Leather & More overpriced stuff

Hey! I've been very, very busy lately and nearly no time to get in some posts. July was my absolute bussiest month! Anyway, I've been seeing patent leather everywhere I shop, so ta-da! inspiration. But get ready for some anecdotes in this post. Sit tight...

Hehe, I'm watching Next! Whoa, that's random.

..........................................................................

THE DREAM ON'S OF PATENT LEATHER:


^
I must admit, when I saw this Prada bag in the store, I was like; OMG I neeeeeed that!... then, I looked at the price.
Do you love it, or do you loooove it!?


^
Two words: KiLLER. SHOES. (Burberry, yeah, right!) If I was planning on buying $1,000 shoes any time soon... (also, they're waaaay too high)

^
What adorable boots!... um. never gonna happen.


^
I absolutely love headbands... so, A Miu Miu one that's patent leather is even better - but, it's called OVERPRICED.

..........................................................................

MORE GOODIES:

& the Music Obsession: (as you can tell, because the song on my blog is from the CD)

Riot!, the new Paramore CD. It's awesome...



.............................................................................

i WANTED this headband- but I was so mad when I found out it was $62. Grrr.


.............................................................................

And I end with two celebrity photos I really like...

All [three] look stylish working the 'boho' look:

1) Kiera Knightley's style is effortless, but looks very put together all the same. I love this boho look.


2) The Olsen twins look chic in their matching styles; the aviators, the blonde do's, the whole boho look as well.


Emily is... single again :(

LOVE this blog! They have patent sandals like those studded ones in the UK. New Look has some coming out in Autumn as does Barratts. Maybe look out for them on ebay?

I like the red Prada, but the style, not so much for me.

Those black heels and boots are def something I would never wear!!!

I love the Olsen Twins Style, as well as Keira's.

I want patent shoes so badly. Keira looks fab as ever. Hmmm, I think that stuff might just be a bit out of my price range!

That headband is so cute!

Thanks! I was asking that same question a few weeks ago to Robot-Walk.

I don't actually know how I did it. But I don't have to change my layout the HTML way, there's this full automatic thing that makes it a lot easier to change your background or put on an extra link. You can change it, via layout. But I don't quiet know how.

I hope that you are getting this, if not, feel free to ask me more about it :)!

And I love those strappy heels.
