SHOEPHIX NOW OPEN IN YALETOWN!

A good girlfriend of mine just opened up her shoe store ShoePhix in Yaletown! The soft opening was today and the store looks AMAZING. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to take any pictures of the store because I was a little rushed since I needed to get back to studying. They carry brands such as Sam Edelman, Paprika, Two Lips and so on. They also have a large selection of belts and bracelets... all which are of good quality and at great prices! Whenever you Vancouver ladies are free be sure to drop by the store and say hi. My boyfriend got me a pair of black Sam Edelman flats (my first pair of real nice flats... my other flats are from Zellers lol). I couldn't decide between the black or gold ones but I ended up playing it safe and going for black. These are perfect to wear during my clinical rotation on the Mental ward. They have cushioned soles and are very very comfortable. I'm flat footed and have wide feet, though, so I'm a little scared that they will make my feet sore after awhile :S 


My new flats! 

I've been trying to save money lately since I'm planing on going on a ton of trips during the school summer break. (April: LA May: Mexico June: Vegas & July: Philippines) So I've been getting my shopping fix at more affordable stores like Forever21 and H&M! While I was in Hawaii I picked up a pair of yellow skinny jeans and an off the shoulder Rolling Stones sweater. The jeans I bought in a size 25 because that was the smallest size in stock and the sweater in a size medium so that it was loose fitting and comfortable. Unfortunately the jeans ended up being way too big on me because I can pull them off my bum without unbuttoning them. I ended up giving them to my sister :( 



I found this boyfriend cardigan on the Forever21 website and I hope that I can find it here in stores. I love big cardigans! I also found some cute blazers online. I own ZERO blazers which is pretty sad! It's my goal to buy myself a few nice ones.

BOOKED!!

Me and my boyfriend finally booked our trip for spring break. First, we were planning to stay on a resort in Mexico for either 5 or 7 days but since we're so last minute the only flights available were connecting flights with 18 hour layovers (f*ck that!). So we decided to save the Mexico trip till May when I'm done finals and we're going to go to Hawaii instead! :D Pictures of where we'll be staying:
