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:

BRACELET SHOPPING

I'm a little mad at myself because I told myself yesterday that I was going to quit shopping for awhile so that I could pay off my visa. Well that was a lie because when I went on hautelook.com today I ended up buying three bracelets :S They are by this brand called Leila and in total they came to around $117. I think that I saved around $200 something because these were 70% off. I needed a little retail therapy because I was mad at my boyfriend. He told me that he was going to take me to dinner for our anniversary but then he FORGOT!!!!! These bracelets make me feel better lol.

DYING IN THE COLD

I tried to put off buying a winter jacket for so long because it's already February and we technically only have one month of winter left. Yet the past two days have been so cold AND it snowed!! I was dying and on the verge of getting hypothermia so I went on a hunt for a winter jacket. I finally bought the Mackage Joey jacket and it is really warm. I'm a big bargain shopper and I found this jacket in extra small for sale on www.list4all.com for only $380 (it's originally $520 before tax and shipping on the Mackage website). I bargained it down to $370 and my boyfriend grabbed it for me. It was such a good deal... I'm proud of myself lol.

I'm going to Whistler this weekend with my boyfriend so I can wear my new jacket there. My boyfriend is in real estate and he always has these crazy hookups so he got this mansion for the weekend. It has 5 bedrooms plus an indoor pool! I'll take pictures and post it on my blog. I lost my camera charger though :( I'm pretty sure that it's somewhere in my house...

I can't post too much because I have a sh*tload of readings to do for tomorrow morning. I'm such a procrastinator ahhhh!! But look at these super cute paintings that I found on www.pbteen.com. I love the chihuahua one because it looks exactly like my dog Enya! I'm thinking about buying it but it's friggen $156 BEFORE tax and shipping. I don't know if I can justify spending that much! The purple bulldog painting is pretty cute too. I decided that I'm going to cover one of my bedroom walls with pictures and artwork and I'm definitely going to have one painting of a chihuahua in there. It has to look like my dog though!

MORE SHOPPING

I can't get enough of this www.tobi.com website!!

I ended up buying 3 more items:

 1. Catwalk dress in black. Small. $52. 

I'm going to wear this when me and my bf go away for spring break!

2. Peppermint Taylor Lepel Dress. Small. $56.

3. Sole Mio Chiffon Tank. Small. $28

PS: I'm at this bubbletea place trying to do my homework but these two young kids behind me keep flirting with eachother really loudly in public and it's distracting me from my readings *angry face*

MY CRAZY EX WANTS TO TAKE ME SHOPPING

I couldn't take it any longer without the rest of my belongings so I sucked it up and finally texted my ex-boyfriend. I said, "Hey when are you free I want to get the rest of my stuff" and then he ended up calling me. It was so awkward on the phone!! He asked me if I was seeing anyone and I told him that I was dating someone now. He said "I hope it's not someone that I know". YIKES.

He told me that I could come over to grab the rest of my stuff and so I did later on. I REALLY did not want to go by myself but it was too last minute to get anyone to go with me. When I got to the apartment my ex-boyfriend immediately started asking me stuff about my new boyfriend like how long we've been together etc. Ugh. Then he gave me back my Tiffany necklace but not my Chanel bag (he gave it to his mom). I don't want this necklace at all so I'm going to try to sell it lol. I quickly packed up all of my stuff and tried to bounce out of there as quick as I could but my ex-boyfriend kept trying to talk to me.

Ex-boyfriend: So do you ever think about me?
Me: No. Not really.
Ex-boyfriend: Not even a little?
Me: I think about you a little but it's when I think about how much I hate you.
Ex-boyfriend: Oh well I think about you a little here and there...
Ex-boyfriend: So... I guess it's too late for us to get back together right...
Me: Ummmm yeah I think so
Ex-boyfriend: Well I want to buy you something for your birthday to show you that I'm sincerely sorry for what I did to you. I'll take you on a shopping spree wherever you want. We can go to Holt Renfrew or LV. I'll buy you a new bag.
Me: No you don't need to. You didn't come to my birthday so it's okay.
Ex-boyfriend: No I want to. As a friend.
Me: Well I'll think about it.
Ex:boyfriend: I bought myself the new Mercedes Coup.
Me: Oh that's cool good for you.
Ex-boyfriend: I get my new car in March so I can come pick you up in it and we can go shopping. Do you want to sit in my new car?
Me: Sure (but really in my head I'm thinking what a douchebag)
Ex-boyfriend: Can I have a hug before you leave
Me: Sure *goes over and gives hug*
Ex-boyfriend: *says into my ear* So... you really don't miss me?
Me. NO.

If you think that was bad you guys should read the text messages that he sent me later on that night lol. I kind of do want to go on a shopping spree and get a new bag but I don't think that my new boyfriend would like that very much :(
