<br />
My way overdue Polyvore account has proven to be one of the rougher factors weighing on my bank account. Creating looks... really? Like, how could I create a look and then not actually own it or wear it? Ha Ha ya right.<br />
<br />
Now I've almost found time to simultaneously shop and blog at the same time. Wow, things are about to take a real turn... for better or worse. (better, obviously)<br />
<br />
<br />
It summer time, what else is there to do than wear things that hardly qualify as clothing? No one can judge.... well ya they can but at least i can say I care substantially less, as long as the sun is out. Cropped tops and shorts are pretty much the route too be taking this summer, if you ask me.<br />
<br />
And see... nude and gold? I've never even done it before, but Polyvore made me realize that... yes, I do in fact need to shop a lot more until I can make this happen.<br />
<br />
Sorry bank account.<br />
<br />
<br />
and there is more to come................ :)</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
You know those days where you have to wake up, really early,
and drag your ass to wherever you need to be- in my case… school. Its still
sort of dark out and your half contemplating the extent of how terribly unhappy
you are in this moment and half wondering WHY you aren’t just skipping yet
another Monday morning art class. (I mean I love art but I don’t love anything before
9:30am…at least)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
And then you have to throw on some scary puffy jacket and
your hair is half straight and half in ringlets, and your mascara is already
running down your face and your defining what it means to be a mess more and
more by the second. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Well it was one of those days for me, but thankfully I
snapped out of it when I realized that the holiday spirit is in the aiiiirrr. I
got up, watched some Hepburn, painted my nails to resemble somewhat of a
Christmas present, made some Christmas tea, listened to some Christmas classssics
and now I even managed to write this blog post! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
So this is my attempt at passing on the holiday joy to everyone
else having one of those days. So below is sort of like a pre-holiday bad day
survival kit. I mean- how could you not smile listening to Marilyn Monroe sing
Santa Baby...?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Unless of course it’s a Monday… then all I can say is good
luck to you….</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
You know those times when you spend a bit too long staring
at something that’s so perfectly perfect? Then you have to hit yourself a few
times, at first to break the daze and then again to snap back into reality to
realize if its really that perfect or if you’ve just been shopping for a few
hours too many (I think that’s what they call a retail high?.... ill take it!).
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Then if your in the Alexander McQueen store you realize that
yes, in fact it is THAT PERFECT, and you must then hit yourself again for not
thinking of it yourself. But then you realize that you aren’t the genius that
designs for McQueen… which explains why you didn’t think of it yourself. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I always find myself in the McQueen store just sort of
drooling over the endless beauty and having ongoing flashbacks to the medieval
times (not that I witnessed them or anything, but you know what I mean). </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Like, why does the combination of pearls and gold and black
and red have such a powerful affect one me? Woah, its kinda scary when I think
about it- like hypnosis or something. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I think I always have the subconscious feeling that if I go
into the McQueen store, some of the beauty will emanate onto me, and ill leave
feeling just a bit more pearly and golden and medieval and, cool. Then again I’d probably have to buy
something for that to happen. Although I did try on a gold and pearl neck cuff,
does that count for anything? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
So Medieval. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">

<o:p> </o:p>Had a great time tonight at the Jcrew event hosted by the
Beckerman twins, Sam and Cailli Beckerman- Writers of the <a href="http://beckermanbiteplate.blogspot.ca/">BeckermanBiteplate</a>. Perks of living in

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
No matter what month or season, JCrew always succeeds to make
‘preppy’ so friken appealing, even when I’ve convinced myself otherwise. But
now I wonder, why would I ever convince myself otherwise? And all the sparkle
really brings out even more of my premature holiday excitement. I mean, you
walk into the store and everything is either jeweled, beaded or has some sort
of metallic detail on it. Have you seen their accessories?!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Well, I got a half blurry insta with the Beckermans, and a
holiday worthy shirt out of the night, AND the gift bag came with a reeeally
nice bracelet- so I’d call it a success. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
It seems boarder line illegal to mention that exceedingly
controversial name and not state my life altering, game changing, overly
opinionated life statement on the girl (or are we not allowed to call her a
girl anymore!? :O)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
However this isn’t a “is she or isn’t she a feminist” post-
nor a post that’s debating her vulgarity or taking a stance on her ability to
twerk. However if someone doesn’t start patrolling me, I cannot accept
responsibility for the direction in which my rants may veer. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Is it possible to just get sick of controversy? I mean
vagina this, nudity that, menstruation and masturbation! The M-squared! With
all this Miley Cyrus and Petra Collins all over the place it is truly blurring
the lines between who’s actually creating a movement and who’s just
brainstorming ideas to write the next SNL skit.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I’m getting sick of all this controversy and everyone
profusely shoving their believes down each others throat… we’re all starting to
choke if you ask me. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
So without further ado I am going to state my opinion….
Disregarding her half (or fully) naked endeavors, or her pornographic (or not
pornographic?) Terry Richardson photo shoots… I must admit I do like how she
accessorizes. Most of the time- I mean the times that don’t include double buns
or a flailing tongue. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I remember reading an interview where she mentioned how she
always has a big bag full of accessorize- from big Chanel chains and rings to
ear cuffs and I’m assuming a few sticks of bright red lipstick. I must admit, I
have always been a bit overly obsessed with wearing red lipstick, all day,
everyday… I don’t see why not! Anyways… You never know when a duffle bag full
of accessorize may come in handy, right? Miley, I may have to copy you on that
idea. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
And look… don’t get me wrong, I’m not about to hop on stage
naked and bare all to billions of people with a foam finger and Robin Thicke by
my side (not that I really had the option to begin with), but I also wouldn’t
go as far as calling Miley a disgrace to all man kind. She’s clearly doing her
thang… and if its really that disgusting then you better not buy a ticket to
her concert! Noone is forcing anyone to watch her skimp around half nude! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
If at this point my lack of depth has fazed you, or my
not-meant-to-be-opinionated- but-opinionated-nonetheless post has irritated
you, or if you’re just yawning at this point- at least you’ve read this far. I mean
Miley seems so fascinating these days, if the joke on a dubble bubble wrapper
was about her I bet you’d even read that! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Following are some pictures of her (better) accessorizing. </div>

you’re afraid, and you don’t know what your afraid of…” as Audrey would put it.</div>

Or in other words, you know those days when you’re feeling a

makes it a bit harder to get rid of them. “Well, when I get the mean reds the
only thing that does any good is

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
A guilt-ridden splurge on a dress for an event that was not
entirely guaranteed to be part of my near future, ended in an outcome as
uncertain and uncontrollable as the process itself. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
And now again in English: I bought the perfect elaborately-elegant
dress that I originally thought only existed in my deepest and most hallowed
dreams. Excited to wear it to an event that is referred to as ‘Bat Ball’ aka
‘Prom’, at a school I do not attend, nor – at the time- did I have an invite to. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
And although the invite was eventually nice, I could have done without the fact
that the dress code read ‘Gowns’ defeating all chances any of us had at looking different from one another. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
At which point my strategic planning ahead backfired, leaving
me with one week to find a gown. Of which two of those days are occupied by a
holiday and a photo shoot, and 4 of them I more or less should be at school
rather than downtown. </div>

When I was in New York back in November with my mother, I
remember saying, after scouring the many department store “Lets make a bet…
that the spring colors will be pastels”. I couldn’t be gladder my psychic
tendencies didn’t fail me on this one.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So I’m not really sure what I’m more excited for now; spring
itself, or the fact that its going to be somewhat of a time warp back to an era
that I sort of do, sort of don’t wish I lived in…. I mean, I’m pretty sure all
girls are programmed to go weak in the presence of the perfect shade of pink. </div>

So, on a long car ride home from a dinner on Lincoln road, I
got thinking back to when… I had an invalid animosity towards the perfect pair
of Manolo’s. Now don’t get me wrong, this was OBIOUSLY a while back, during a
much more naïve and uncertain time period in my existence; its safe to say that
version of me is long gone. Thankfully it became more apparent that the perfect
pair of sleek and ‘proper’ Manolo’s, is a necessity to find the equilibrium to
an otherwise unconventional outfit. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And this all is relevant to the point because, It reminded
me of the other day when I penalized the Roger Vivier section of the various
grand department stores in New York, because I foolishly prejudged them to be ‘too
proper’ to suit my provisional ‘not-quite-the-queen-of-England’ wardrobe. Well
once again, thankfully I can say, I was misguided. I don’t see why you can’t
treat Roger Vivier as a relatively more lavish form of Manolo’s (well, that
statement is not always true, but you get the just). I’m thinking, why not
dress them to suit the occasion; at this point once I acquire a pair myself, I
may just end up wearing them everyday. Because, why not?</div>

Once again, I witnessed an outstanding and enjoyable Dave
Matthews concert. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The band featured many songs from his new album ‘Away From
the World’, including my provisional favorite ‘Broken Things’. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The vague but relevant lyrics ‘Well how could we know that
our life could be so full of beautifully broken things’ manages to further
conclude the fact that Dave, just has a better way with words than basically,
well, anyone.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And once again, my friends and I succeed to come off as a merely
psychotic pair, dancing …or…er…..spasing, sincerely off beat, appearing as
though were nearly about to explode. In the least harmless way of course, with
all the right intentions, of being two hopeless die hard fans, just feeling the
music a bit too much.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And not to mention my music-induced high off life feeling
that is always present after a satisfying concert led me to buying too much
Dave Matthews merchandise than actually necessary. But really, I just see it as
a harmless splurge.</div>

<br />
The stores redesign is unlike any other I have seen, and really increases the pleasure of gallivanting from boutique to boutique.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The winter themed décor obviously put a permanent smile on my face; even the sparkly snowy-ornament-decorated tree-branches/wreath things, hanging off the wall, managed to make the thought of a good snow fall, make me feel all warm and happy.<br />
<br />
The successful turnout, though, made it really difficult to snap a good picture of the evening, seeing as every time I tried I ended up just stalker-ishly capturing images of the tops of people’s heads.<br />
<br />
The abundance of people never got in my way of trying on amazing pieces, obviously. Its just so easy to fall in love with something that’s so perfectly stunning.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Out of the few pictures I was able to take, the following things have me feeling like the queen of England, and really hoping my future husband reads my blog… ;)<br />
<br />
<br />
Some of the following pictures weren't taken the night of the event, but seemed too difficult to leave out.<br />
<br />
Check out the website for undeniably better pictures, of what i am displaying and more. Because who can really get enough of looking at jewellery?<br />

The only downside is I haven't quite figured out how/ if its possible to write captions on my pictures, which eliminates people being pleasantly misguided to my blog when searching clearly fabulous related things. Oh well, I'm putting googles complexity to waste. :( <br />
It'll just make for 2-step blog posts, and less attentive school classes. <br />
Teachers, Need not worry; Knowing me I'll be over this fascination before it's noticeably even begun. <br />
<br />
Anyways, to the point, please. <br />
New York made it fairly discernible that gold is seriously trending. All. Gold. Everything. <br />
Literally, and I like it. <br />
Could not be more suitable pertaining to my premature holiday excitement.<br />
<br />
As put by Anna Dello Russo "10 christmas party rules: rule number 3- chose a GOLD: You will emphasize the idea to be a Christmas GIFT to be unwrapped." <br />

<br />
While I'm sitting in Saks' delicious 'Cafe SFA' I'm coming to realize how extremely necessary it is to share the pictures I just took of 3 stunning Valentino bags. <br />
<br />
At first glance I was apprehensive about loving them. Thankfully they're 'double-take' material, because when I looked back I realized that although extravagant, they are Absolutely beautiful; about first on the list of bags I wish to see on my shoulder. (Ofcourse still a runner up to my new best friend Pashli satchel, whom I will tell you about later)<br />

She has brought extensive upset everywhere, to say the least. With all my usual odd ways of speech aside, I seriously want to express the importance of being aware and helping, through donations and any other ways; as the just of this blog post (and all my others) was not meant to be heavy and serious. I don't mean to give implications that I ACTUALLY don't care. <br />
<br />
Anyways the worst Sandy has done to me was threaten to come between my mother my anticipated New York trip. Thankfully fait is inevitable. <br />
<br />
I recall earlier this week in the depths of my disappointment, when Sandy turned poor LaGuardia into what appeared to be an ocean, telling my mother I'd be willing to walk there as a mean of transportation. <br />
<br />
My father, in attempt to bring light to the situation said " you could always come to Indianapolis with your brothers and I to watch the game... There's a Nordstroms there..." I appreciate the offer dad but, lets just say, I'm glad they drained LaGuardia. (Now, only if they could do the same with the rest of the ocean, that is New York) <br />
<br />
After the emotional instability of my week that was a result of how shopping in New York has a dangerously severe affect on me, I ended up here, waiting to board with a smile that is unsuitably sized considering how early I got up this morning <br />
<br />
Now the question stands, where to go first? (Who am I fooling, as if my mom and I didn't create an extremely strict agenda weeks ago, ha..)Ruth Rumackhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12014841539104632427noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3283668514121074030.post-61541659864602168092012-10-25T15:10:00.001-07:002012-10-25T15:10:23.268-07:00Finger ArmourJust feeling ambitious here, as I produce my first blog post from my new iPhone - in which I have extensively been attached to for the past two weeks. Technology still succeeds to fascinate me. <br />
<br />
My mother happily slid this onto my finger when she arrived home; relieved with the promise I will no longer be wearing hers, more than she has the chance to. <br />
<br />
This finger get-up is from her store Royal de Versailles, which is also where i got my dangerously increasing craze for jewellery- but who's complaining? <br />

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
I couldn’t help but play a game of ‘name that
brand’ with myself, as I watched model after model strutting back and forth for the Holt
Renfrew fashion show that kicked of Toronto’s Fashion Week, last night. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Some looks were a little far fetched, like when a few models
emerged in Canada Goose attire, most definitely ready to tackle Canada’s most
grueling winter; I wouldn’t exactly say it would be my choice of preference.
Although, other looks I could find folded up on my shelves, at the moment; or I
could recall basking in the beauty of their presence, last weekend at Holt
Renfrew (sigh…3.1 Phillip Lim). </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My top three favourite of the show: 3.1 Phillip Lim, Alexander Wang, and Diane Von Furstenberg</div>

Well, these are more of an attained love than an unrequited one, since i ACTUALLY bought these!!!<br />
RIGHT?!<br />
Even though wearing them is like stabbing daggers into my ankles, its so worth it.<br />
I mean, you've got to break them in eventually.<br />
I was so happy to find these because i have been looking for the perfect man-like yet feminine, pointed toe shoe with a buckle. And, well... these couldn't fit the description more perfectly!<br />
Love At Last.<br />
