while sipping hot chocolate and flipping through magazines, we began to formulate wishlists in our heads and decided to share with you the best and worst accessories of the upcoming season

spring summer accessories report 08 ~ start your wish-lists, its time (to stress lol ;p ) but dont worry you still have time to abuse your fall/winter accessories!!

we have to start off with marc jacobs (the love) we were all anticipating all the collections he'll be designing for louis vuitton once he joined..BUT omgg the vuitton ss08 collection was RIDIC!! the jokes on the bags, the people having coffee on the bags, SPONGEBOB LUNCHBOX!!! come on marc we love you but you have to help us and our eyes!







moving on to prada - no comment on the shoes ;p but we've seen some cute coin purses and the floral print dresses are TDF!




louboutin: we love the fact that the red from the soles are also on the sides now - siren haute!



YSL: You'll So Love!! everything is A okay except for the weird looking shoes - need we say more?? the post card clutches ~ hearttt







chanel-O: from the gem clutches, to the ankle purses, to the bow bracelet, to the rectangular to circle clutches - PERFECTION!!







marc - we know you didn't mean what you did to louis vuitton's ss08 collection we know .. and we're so loving your new creation, INVENTION of these incredible heels!! even though they're funny looking to some, we're SOOOO going to be the first to wear them! we love love love you and vote you for president ;p

grilled!




its been a while since our last post, death by finals! tomorrow is our official last day of classes - soo looking forward to thirty days of chillaxing where our biggest concern is nothing more than deciding what to wear and where to dine!

what's a week of finals without a gathering right in the middle? lol ;p we threw a bbq gathering at a very convenient time for those who want another excuse not to study for tomorrow's exaM* preparations were very last minute..usually, we'd arrange the outdoor tables, chairs, and tiny details from which plates we'll use to which cups for hot chocolate a day in advance..this time, everything was decided 2 hours before the barbeque..how did everything work out, you ask? a detailed list is all you need!! jot everything down and you'll be fine~

make sure to have someone who is willing to flip burgers and grill hotdogs available lol because as much as we love bbq's (throwing and attending), we're usually not seen ten feet away from the grill and smoke (*ewH)

other than the list and fabulous company, the only thing you need to guarantee an amazing cookout is luck lol - with our unpredictable weather, a gorgeous breezy night needs lots of crossed fingers and pure luck ;p
next time you meet up with your friends, throw a bbq!! its a fun alternative to the usual gathering and a great way to make use of the fabulously unpredictable weather <3>

lit up~




the lights are up!! <3 its the final weeeek before winter break - what more can we ask for yeyyy* after catching up over tea, h* began to finish up her presentation for tomorrow (wish her luck <3 ) we decided to get away from work by passing by for magazines and cheesecake (not that we're having any ourselves lol ;p ) M went down to get mags but didn't find any, so she came back with a bag full of different flavors of GUM - we quote a parody of mary-kate "you know whats a good diet, gum" (the olsens on E!'s starveillance)

do NOT try the gum diet @ home ;p

P.S even though they're not that clear, you have to take your time enjoying the pictures, we went around the same roundabout with our windows down a couple of times & back and forth on the same road with flashes all over lol *

mini mani evening*

today we got our nails done like the models in the SS08 Dior show~ at first we really loved it but now we are having second thoughts- it looks like we're celebrating "national day" already ;p but still we kinda like this trend- we thought if we use a different, darker shade- like Essie's "solemate" color it would look better, soOo maybe next time we try it with a different color..we were told that if you want to try this, you need rounder nails to put the line on..
anyways..we ended the night with ugly betty and burgerLand*

"Hello Lover!!"



Blogging from our macs, seems like we can relive a lot of Carrie Bradshaw moments. We both agree that although she might have made a lot of mistakes picking between the men she wants in her life, she definitely made the right shoe choices. We connect with Carrie in many ways - shoes are her therapy. You SATC-holics surely recall her looking at the perfect pair of loulous from the boutique window, exclaiming "hellllo lovers!" Its so sad the series was put to an end (not to mention Big's name was revealed as John?? sadder!!) BUT, mark your calenders, May is one day closer lol ;p have you been catching up with the satc movie? PLEASE no spoilers!!! We can tell you one thing - the wardrobe is so worth looking forward to (think a fuchsia dvf backless dress with pearls for a day of shopping, Fendi box clutches, and fabulous gladiator heels- a must-have item to welcome spring!)

Any of you satc-istas been to the sex and the city tour in ny? If not, you should SO add it to your list of things you should do in this lifetime lol ;p they pick you up at the very park that a lot of the scenes were shot .. get into a huge bus which plays clips of scenes as we pass right by them omg so exciting! Getting down at a few spots, having the infamous Magnolia bakery cupcakes that Carrie once shared with Miranda..passing by Samantha's house.. the spa club they once crashed .. but the highlight of it all - sitting on the very steps of Carries's apartment!!!! The real woman who owns the apartment understands the whole Carrie hype and allows for the tourists to take photos all day - so sweeet ;p a shot taken 2 summers ago ahhhh*


now that we reminded you of the show we all once enjoyed and related to, share with us your favorite satc moments, quotes, and which of the four you can relate to the most..wishing you a FAAAABulous night~

Trust us, make it a priority in every party list because, seriously, what's a party without "Couture Cakes"? Cupcakes are great giveaways and at Couture Cakes, you can have each cupcake individually wrapped with the cutest bow and label to indulge your guests with.
