High-Waisted Shorts: Yay Or Nay?

Talked smack about some girl in high waisted jeans yesterday and was talking to Mr. Bex about how horrible they looked (the jeans)..they were so fucking ugly!! And today, while passing by a local thrift store, I happened to look in and guess what I found...an actual passable-looking high-waisted shorts similar to these-

-in my size, and for only $8.00. Of course I couldn't get them now, since I talked so much shit about how horrible high-waisted (any kind of) pants looked! Mr. Bex is laughing at me now.

In other news, am hunting for a decent doctor's bag, like this one:

Kickin' It Shoes

I have these:



They're getting beat up (after all, they ARE kickin' it shoes), so now I want these:



But I can't find anything bigger than a 6 1/2 in any of the online stores!!! Arrrgh!!

I Don't Mind These At All...

(Click photo to enlarge)

I've mentioned how much I love Soia & Kyo before especially this red number but I don't mind any of these coats at all!! I don't shop a lot (not now especially that the economy's tanked), and I tend to like pieces with interesting details, and I like the collars on these! I don't mind shelling out for pieces that I'd wear for a while (ie coats) so I'd totally rock these!

PS. (Shout out to) Kev I know I post a lot of stuff about fashion, but like I said to you before, one can never talk too much fashion! And I hope your hand gets better soon.

Have I Ever Mentioned That I Hate Adam Sandler?

Like, with a passion. Absolutely cannot stand him. The other day one of his crap movies or another came on the tv and I mentioned to Mr. Bex, "God, I fucking hate Adam Sandler. He sucks." Which might be a lame argument for hating someone but come on, "Opera Man"? Fucking not funny at all. His movies suck. Little Nicky? Puh-leese. Billy Madison? Happy Gilmore? You Don't Mess With The Zohan? Pure inane drivel. Garbage, pretty much. Somebody shoot me if I'm ever forced to sit through an Adam Sandler movie.

Also I hate Rob Schneider, but that's another story.

So now I'm gonna balance all that hate with a bit of love. I love these boots! I think they're Chloe and probably cost like $5,000. But they're fucking ace, no doubt about that!

My jaw dropped when I saw this Rick Owens jacket at Jak & Jil:


It reminds me of stomachers worn by European ladies in the 15th and 16th centuries:





But holy crap!! This shot is brilliant.

Cool Boots aka 200th Post!

Dammit boots!!! Why do you look so awesomely wearable!!! I'd love to get you unfortunately in these tough times (read: right before & after Christmas) I might have to sell a kidney just to pay the bills and get the rent covered. How did I stumble across you? Damn internets.

PS...It's $282 if you're my secret Santa, heh, heh..

Edit: Well, hello, hello!!! I just realized this is my 200th post!!! Not a lot by seasoned blogger standards, but most important for me as I'm not the type to stick to doing the same thing for long periods of time, it tends to get boooring, ya'know. And now I have proved myself capable of commitment (ha!). It seems that I like blogging (unlike my ventures into keeping diaries and scrapbooking, etc), so here's to another 200 blogs, or 1000 even!! Laaaters!!

Oh Be Still My Heart!

I'm a hoodie and jeans kinda gal, that's how I dress most of the time. I normally don't spend too much on day-to-day hoodies (think F21). Having said that, I wouldn't mind splurging on these Mike & Chris hoodies...and the jackets too...they are gorgeous!!!

The white one is soooo cute...I approve of the built-in neck-warmer..
