New In: Maison Martin Margiela








Transparent heels, lots of leather, ridiculously shaped jeans and upside-down bags, - 
could this collection of the famous designer be any more perfect?
Well, I don't think so. It's just down my alley!
Unfortunately, I worked 14 days straight without any break, so the trip to the store, an hour and half each way, would not be possible. Could you imagine my frustration when I found out I would not be able to see it with my own eyes! And I knew it would be sold out in no time... And it sure did. Now, you can imagine my delight when I saw the clutch down below available as a reward on Chictopia.com! I just had to wait 34 hours till it could be redeemed. "Don't forget, don't forget" I kept telling myself, trying to memorize the hour I would be able to finally apply my points, and get this beauty in the most popular fall color of 2012! Seriously, I could not sleep! I just kept thinking about dozens of other people wanting to snatch it! So when the day arrived and I almost gave up on it - (free stuff doesn't come easy you know!), I went on the page, and oh, mother, there it was ready to redeem! I almost lost my ability to type, and just entered all the necessary information on automatic pilot, I guess, now wondering if it even was correct, goodness gracious, and 14900 points later (it retailed for $149.00), the glove clutch rightfully became mine. MINE!!!! I should never have thought I would be able to own anything from the designer, especially considering the prices (3-digit numbers for the most pieces only  in their collection with HM). And I own one of them! I still have the biggest grin on my face every time I think about it! Maison Martin Margiela with HM in my maison (I thought I'd go for a little pun, maison means "house" in french just in case you did not know)!

Can't wait to have it in my arms!!!
Did you get anything from the collection?
Love,
M.

Firmoo Glasses Review: Sexy Librarian








I am wearing:
Shirt, Blazer, Shorts Vintage,
Glasses Firmoo
Tights Forever21
Bag Nine West
Shoes Kling

My second pair of Firmoo glasses, and I am not gonna lie, I am very happy with these!
I never thought big nerdy frames like that would look good on me, but I just proved myself wrong!
Apparently, I was not the only one to appreciate the tortoise detail as the glasses sold out! But I am sure you will find a pair that speaks to your heart on Firmoo.com! Especially if you take advantage of the exclusive offer for their 1st time customers: The first pair of glasses is FREE no matter if you get sunglasses, prescription glasses or use them for styling your outfits.

The only critique I have for this pair, the lens (i got a non-prescription glasses) appears green at certain angles as you can see in some of the pictures. And the case they came in was a bit damaged during shipping, but that's not the companies fault.

Mine came in a black case, with a cleaning cloth, which is always nice and good to have.

Hope you enjoyed this sexy librarian look. 
I know I did!
TTYL!
