hey everyone!

first of all. ADDICTED TO THIS SONG…

so yes, anyway it’s another haul. i haven’t had much to blog about lately i guess. or the things that i CAN blog about i choose to not upload to flickr because i’m lazy…T_T anyway yeah.

SO first off, a pair of maroon/burgundy corduroys from rag & bone! they are awesome. i bought them in a huge size but they fit well. really large at the waist but nothing a belt can’t fix.

i bought them at loehmann’s in union square, SF, which is like a marshalls/tj max/nordstrom rack/other store that sells nice brands for less, but loehmann’s has AWESOME designer brands. they had a chanel purse for $6000 selling for $3000! CRAZY!!

these pants used to be $180 and i bought em for $79 :D

also at jeremy’s, i bought some adorable and SOFT betsey johnson ivory floral socks.

i already have black calf-high floral betsey johnson socks so i thought these would be super cute. the lace on the top is REALLY soft!

it used to be $12 and i bought it for $7 yay :)

i also went to jeremy’s, which is a department store in san francisco and berkeley. my friend recommended it to me saying that they sell really nice designer brands for less, like loehmann’s, so my mom and i checked it out. the clothes were OK….they were all either broken, stained, or odd sized. there was an alice + olivia feather vest originally like $300 for $30 because there were PERIOD STAINS on the back….i should have taken a picture…it was literally like BLOOD on the back of the vest, and there were 5 that were like that….definitely NOT a factory defect. i also saw a pair of j brands originally $220 for $11. i tried them on not knowing they were defected, and boom….two rips on each hip. i mean, why even bother selling it?! >_> weird…. however i did find two things that i liked: gold clubmaster ray bans and floral socks :) unfortunately the ray ban’s weren’t as big a deal as i thought….i bought it thinking it was $45 and not $145, and i decided i would still buy them anyway, but it seems it’s selling for the same price online even though jeremy’s said it was $210 retailed. so that’s something that annoyed me.

but they sure are sexy.

here are the floral socks i bought at jeremy’s with the betsey johnson ones i bought from loehmann’s.

the jeremy’s socks [left] are SO cute but really delicate. as you can see, the only thing i liked was barely marked down (used to be $9, now $5. i can’t tell if it says $9 or $90 but i’m sure it’s $9.)

i prefer to wear it with my truly madly deeply v neck :)

i also love being extremely good looking………………

and the last thing i bought [for this post, at least!] off ebay that i got today is a color block sweater/blouse/stretchy top thing from forever 21. i just love it! :)
DSC_0120DSC_0121

that’s all for now! i have a whole ‘note’ that i made on the side of my computer screen with ‘things i’ve bought that i meant to blog about…but was too lazy or forgot to…’
i’m doing really well in school right now so i think it’s best if i try to stay off blogging, but i’ll update at least once or twice a week if i can! :)

love you all

hello fellow followers of my blog! :D

so if you follow my blog, you would know that i have been OBSESSED with buying this adorable shirt from a high quality celebrity-loved brand called lauren moshi. they are LA-based, and known for having super high quality and indie-styled shirts, pants, sweats, etc. i found out about this brand because, yes…i admit it! a celebrity i really like, miranda cosgrove, was wearing it. i didn’t just buy it because she owned it, i bought it because it’s just so beast!! :)

anyway. so these are the stock pictures that laurenmoshi.com provides:

Lauren Moshi Diamond Lips Raglan

so anyway, i thought the design was really cute and i loved the baseball tee style sleeves!

for the record, i have been hunting down this shirt since practically last fall. i never thought to purchase it, even though i really wanted it, until:

A. they ran out for 2 weeks and luckily restocked

B. the employees told me they would be restocking again after it had sold out 2 months later and ended up not restocking

C. i realized they had one more left in my size (XS) in the store

so basically the shirt is really popular and was going fast and i only thought to buy it once i realized that there would not be another chance for me to buy it. so after waiting almost/over a year deciding if i wanted to buy the top or not, i decided they had ONE MORE in my size and i had one chance to buy it. so i did.

in the end i paid around $129, the shirt being $119, free shipping, but on the bill i had to pay $10 for transit fees….strange! but i’ll deal with that. i also got my shirt in a size XS, for future reference as you read the post.

DSC_0069

C H E C K O U T & S H I P P I N G ★★★★★ 5/5

i called the store in LA on the 21st/wednesday, and asked them if they had it, and gave them my information and they had it shipped on thursday, and it arrived today, monday!! so it was mega efficiently fast, which i love. the shipping was also free. woo hoo!

so it arrived and i was flipping out the entire weekend and all day at school for it to arrive. UPS is a bitch and takes forever to get to my house, so of course it has to arrive at 6:45 PM. usually it arrives at 7:30 PM so i guess it wasn’t too bad.

C U S T O M E R   S E R V I C E ★★★★★ 5/5

thank you adriana, who helped me over email when i asked if they would be getting the item back in stock, and also helping me order on the phone and when i called back on friday to see when my order would be in she gladly gave me my tracking number and let me know it would arrive on time on monday. she was very kind and repeatedly let me know that if there were any problems once received that i should call her back. but it ended up being okay! :D

DSC_0082

P A C K A G I N G ★★★★ 4/5

i feel like the packaging was done fairly well–the shirt was folded pretty well but there were still a few creases that i’ll have to iron out….i’m too lazy to though, lol! it was wrapped in a white tissue paper and plastic, with a catalog of their newest stock, and a letter with the bill (ew!)

DSC_0081

DSC_0083

Q U A L I T Y ★★★★★ 5/5

the shirt is REALLY soft. it’s very thin, but not see through. i was really impressed by the high quality fabrics that they use, and the overall structure of the shirt. the photos don’t do it justice, the shirt is SUPER soft, i could wear it to sleep!!

DSC_0084

F I T T I N G ★★★★ 4/5

not gonna lie, i was a little bit surprised at the fitting. i thought the shirt would fit loosely in the sleeves and at the bottom, thinking it would flare. the reason i was wrong is because:

A. i have a REALLY short torso

B. perhaps it was too small

i ended up getting an XS, which i’m really glad i did, but the reason it doesn’t fit me like it does on the model(s) is because i think they are taller/have longer torsos than me. the thing that sucks about little ol iomoo is that i have a short torso and pretty short legs. idk. i think it’s really unflattering. hell, it is unflattering. (my short legs and torso, i mean. NOT the shirt! i love the shirt! :D)

but i don’t blame the company for the shirt not fitting me like it does on the model. i still like  how it fits anyway, so it all works out, yeah?

D E T A I L S ★★★★★ 5/5

WOW. this shirt is VERY detailed and that’s why i love it. the little reflective ‘gems’ on the tongue aren’t really gems, they’re little reflective pieces of….fabric? i’m not sure. it’s totally beast though.

DSC_0095

O V E R A L L 100/5!!!

overall i had a very pleasant experience and i will buy from lauren moshi again. they have beautiful quality items for somewhat expensive tastes, but in my opinion it was totally worth it. i’m not sure where their store is, but i’m pretty sure they sell lauren moshi widely throughout los angelos. :)

i love lauren moshi! :)

please, follow them on twitter and like them on facebook! they are totally awesome people. check out their spankin’ blog, too!

for the record, i was not asked or paid to write this review. it is genuine! :)

HEY GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!

so i just came back from one of my best friend’s sweet 16 birthdays at a beach. it was so legit, i had a ton of fun!

and i came home….checked my emails…

and found that i gained 40 followers in a few hours.

why?

MIRANDA COSGROVE FREAKING TWEETED MY FAN ACCOUNT!!!!!!! [MirandaC_Style]

I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW IT HAPPENED!!! if you don’t read my blog[s], i’m a huge fan of miranda cosgrove and i think she’s really talented and dresses amazingly well.

it seems like she was on twitter and was thanking all the major fan accounts for her and came across mine!

i figure that because i never tweeted her or even used my twitter for the past week so it was a surprise to me!

she randomly tweeted me and wrote ‘Love your page! Thanks!’

read from bottom to top.

MIRANDA COSGROVE TWEETED ME!

i honestly don’t know how to feel. i’m kind of flipping out but playing it cool, i don’t want to cry but i want to express how happy that makes me. it means she ACTUALLY saw my page for her!
regardless of if my blog happens to be a place to find exacts for her clothing…[lol] i’m SO happy she likes it! that is SO beast!

anyway that is my big announcement. i’m so happy and just overall freaking out. i’ll post pictures from the beach party i went to later on. /FREAKING OUT/

[see the same post but on my other blog :D]

that means that on September 2, 2011, Miranda Cosgrove visited Miranda Style Source.

BEASTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

1. Free People Red Plaid Open Roads Buckled Up Menswear dress sz 0

$110 starting bid or $150 buy it now

so as i explained in a blog post a while ago, i love love LOVE this dress but i decided i’m just going to buy a new bigger size since i couldn’t fit into this one as well as i had hoped.

i’ve never worn it before, just tried it on but it didn’t fit me well :(

miranda cosgrove wears these during the merry christmas drake and josh episode! :)

2. Free People Skinny Tan Corduroy Leggings size 25 $120

$50 starting bid or $70 buy it now

these pants are amazing! i’ve never worn them before except for trying them on during a short [unpublished!] photoshoot, i decided that jeggings aren’t really my thing.

this color and fabric [corduroy] are really in right now, and will look awesome in the fall! :] the pockets are sewn together.

me wearing them here, for a photoshoot [the only time i wore them]

so i haven’t posted any of my recent purchases in a really long time, besides my past few posts, so here’s a mini haul XD

basically i had a bunch of money saved up for something i wanted to buy, but my auctions weren’t going well so i had to cancel it. then my auctions started going REALLY well, and i was saving up for something else i really wanted to buy, but unfortunately the seller backed out. i’m glad she did, because then that whole thing with the bally shoes came up and i lost $55 :(

but anyway! these are things i’ve bought. i happen to be in love with all of it.

so yesterday i stopped by a wonderful boutique that i visit often called therapy! i know, it’s a weird name, but it’s a lovely store. think of it as if modcloth was a real store–they even carry the same brands! i love going to therapy because the shopgirls are always so nice to me, and they know me so whenever i stop by they always personally greet me and ask if my mom’s around, and help me pick out stuff!

they also sometimes give me free stuff–really!! one time i bought a top, and then they let my mom and i pick two rings for free–worth $12 each! it was really nice of them. and yesterday, my little brother was throwing a fit when i was shopping because he was hungry, and i showed him this funny cow keychain that moos. when we went to go eat next door, he said he kind of wanted the keychain, so we went over and the girl i was talking to just let him have it! it wasn’t expensive or anything (it was $3.50) but it’s a kind gesture and makes me want to shop there more, you know? :]

so anyway, if you’re ever in the bay area of california, check out one of their locations–you won’t be disappointed! :)

ANYWAY! so last time i went to therapy, i wanted to buy an elephant top, but my mom didn’t like it, and now it’s sold out. so i settled on this one, and i love it! it’s from a brand called ‘collective concepts’.

i loooooove this picture! i don’t know what i did, but i love how it was taken, and the colors contrasting :)

elephant top collective concepts

i think it would look cute with a brown or even pink tank top under–i don’t have pink, so here’s brown for demonstration!

elephants

i bought this free people star burnout top for $5 on eBay a few weeks ago. short story–i had bid on a diff auction for the same shirt but was outbid literally at the last minute to $20, and i was kind of sad cuz i really liked this top. so i just searched it and saw it listed for .99 + $4 shipping and jumped on it! i love it–you really can never go wrong with thermals! :)

elephant & stars

elephant & stars

this next top i bought just a few days ago on eBay for $7 + free shipping! it’s from truly madly deeply (a brand carried largely at urban outfitters). i don’t know what i liked about it, but it’s simple and cute, plus i don’t have very many v-necks! (and miranda cosgrove wears it on icarly, hee hee!)
i haven’t worn it yet, because i want to wear a pink tank top under, and like i said earlier, i don’t own a pink tank top! so i have to be on the lookout for one! :P

truly madly deeply v neck

this is one of my new favorite favorites. it’s the first thing i ever bought from topshop! it’s a floral high waisted skirt that has a cute 50′s feel to it–i like how it’s supposed to be worn at the hips, and not the waist! it’s more flattering for me :)
the material is kind of rough but i don’t mind. and it has POCKETS!! except in order to get the bow to tie the way i like, i have to wear the skirt backward, so the pockets end up not being that useful since they’re backwards too! lol.

sorry for the cat hair……………cats =.=

topshop skirt

these next two shirts are from the brand chaser LA, their shirts are so soft and cute! i don’t have many band t-shirts, so i’m glad i came across both of these. and for the record, yes of COURSE i listen to AC/DC and pink floyd! i honestly don’t like AC/DC as much as i thought i would, but i’m madly in love with pink floyd ‘the wall’ right now. it’s amazing!

ACDC chaser LA

FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK

and like i said in my post about my black milk galaxy leggings, i got this shirt for $10 during some kind of 2 for $20 sale on lockerz.com, which is a site where you have to like earn points and stuff. i use it for hosting twitter pictures, but yeah!

[if you want an invite for lockerz, please leave a comment below so i can invite you! xD]

pink floyd chaser LA

this next shirt i’m so glad i bought–it’s a cute tiger cropped shirt from the brand whitley kros that i bought on eBay for $20 + free shipping!! the pink shirt below is separate, but i just put it there because it looks cool. normally i wear it without the pink, though.

this next striped sweater/long sleeve is from marc by marc jacobs that my mom bought for me from nordstroms rack. it was originally $210 or so, and i bought it for $65! i really like it, but i haven’t worn it much because i don’t know how to coordinate it because of the little…thinggy in the middle o__O help is appreciated! O:

marc by marc jacobs

psssst…it has shoulder pads! HAHHA! :D

marc by marc jacobs

this next sweater i’ve been stalking for a million years, it’s from NTICE on karmaloop and it features a keith haring drawing. i was kind of upset that this sweater wasn’t actually a sweatshirt material, it’s more like a stretchy long sleeve material, but it’s super easy to layer and soft!

NTICE keith haring

recognize this coord? it’s from when i was at the harry potter 7 part 2 movie with my friends!!

rugby & NTICE

and finally, here’s an AMAZING somewhat cropped velour cardigan i bought from black peace now during one of their sales. i’m so sad that they’re closing–like SO sad. the only person i know who is sadder than me is my mom; she genuinely liked wearing BPN clothing! and now it’s going to be so hard to buy stuff from them because they’re not very popular…:( we’re going to go mad during the sales though!

black peace now cardigan

my TWO white cats are convinced that black clothing is softer than any other colored clothing…because they love sleeping on my dark colored clothing…

anyway, thank you for reading this post of things i’ve bought, and i hope you like them XD
i have a few more things that i haven’t taken pics of that i will post soon, as well as more content for my blog! :P
and don’t worry–i’m attempting to SAVE my money now, because i’m trying to save up for a pair of shoes!

sigh…only $100 away!

wish me luck!

okay! so i plan on posting all of the things i’ve bought in the past like month since my absence around the end of the school year in mid june…but it’ll all be eventual.

today i went to urban outfitters with my friend sabrina! we meant to go shopping but instead we watched ‘midnight in paris’, because she wanted to go with this guy and his friend (she likes the guy) and she wanted a girl to go with her…so i thought we were going shopping but i ended up having to pay for an $8 ticket to a movie that wasn’t that great. whatever! :P

here’s the outfit i wore. i bought these current/elliott skinny cargos after stalking ebay for nearly a month and missing out on the ones in my size, twice! i almost resorted to buying a pair that was two sizes too big (and the brand also runs REALLY big) but i was desperate. luckily, right before i did, i somehow managed to spot a pair! these usually run for $248 at neiman marcus (now on sale for $166) but i got mine for $50. yee haw!

DSC_0007-1DSC_0008-1

the pink floyd shirt i ‘won’ at lockerz.com, and it’s from a wonderful brand sold widely throughout LA called ‘Chaser LA’. lockerz.com is a site where you upload stuff to twitter and watch videos and you get ‘PTZ’ that can be used on prizes.

the shirt was on sale from $60 to $10, so i used like 800 ‘PTZ’ to get it for like $9 shipped or so. not bad! it’s my new favorite shirt, it’s so soft and perfectly cropped! pink floyd ♥  ♬ ♪ ♩ ♫

i was inspired by miranda cosgrove to buy both these items, not just because she has it but because after i saw them on her, i loved them! in fact i bought the shirt before i found out and then i saw a pic of her wearing it (see this and this post on my other  blog, Miranda Style Source)

if you want a lockerz invite, please let me know! i can email you an invite and it gives me credits :D

DSC_0006-1

ANYWAY! back to what i was saying.

after 90 minutes of wishing i lived in paris, the movie was over and we made our way to urban outfitters where i quickly ran up two flights of stairs (the UO’s near me are two story, generally) and the shirt i fell in love with online was in plain sight :3 so i grabbed it and tried it on…

i wasn’t sure about the fit in the dressing room, but we were pressed for time so i just went ahead and bought it!

now ashlyn and i have matching shirts–expect random ‘collab’ pics soon, when hers arrives in the mail!

the shirt is from peter jensen, a european designer who creates beautiful art and recently started up a collection with urban outfitters. i think the art is sooo cute!

i didn’t know how to pair it at first, but i decided with high waist shorts would be cool. thus, this was born.

hey all! i’m backkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk haha. finally finished up everything on the other blog i was working on, which is (once again) called MirandaStyleSource!

anyway, not the point of this post.

i’ve been noticing those indie tote bags everywhere! either with cute drawings on them, or obscure sayings on them.

nonetheless…i still want them. @___@

here are some fromveryawesomeworld–i LOVE the slumber party one! :3

they’re all hand dyed. kewl. and the poems are by dallas clayton, whom i believe owns the store.

the first one says:

The light from a basement window
as seen from the street
past two AM
can mean many things
my favorite of which
is that someone is fast at work
changing a life that once was
into a life that might soon be.

second one says:

SLUMBER PARTY

Your life
was once so care free
that you combined sleeping
and partying into a single event.

third one says:

REVISED YOUR TO DO LIST

Be a famous musician.

Be a famous act or.

Be a famous write r.

Be a famous basketball player.

Be famous.

so yeah, pretty freaking awesome. go buy them now for $25! :D

i also really like this ‘thunder is in our hearts’ tote from fieldguided on etsy.

it’s unbleached hand printed, and apparently very huge!

thunder in our hearts tote

she has lots more with cute reads on them. check it out:

the mini meow with art by sonja ahlers

secrets are the things we grow tote

dream tote

her totes range from $15-$20. buy them here now!

i think i already posted about it, but i was SO happy that my local kate spade store was restocked with the japan tote bags. i grabbed one as soon as i saw it! it’s really cute, i just hang it in my room and i’ve used it once for a debate conference. it’s very cute!

get it? ‘spade heart japan‘ :3

“kate espade new york supports japan”

so that’s about it! i’m going to see harry potter thursday night at midnight for my friend’s 16th birthday, so i’ll post pics from that and get back to updating this blog! :3 (i feel so bad…the only reason i realized i hadn’t posted on the blog is when i noticed the statistics for my blog were drastically falling…u_u”)

ta-ta for now!

first off, giveaway! :D

click picture for more info.

secondly!

the reason i haven’t been updating is because i’ve been working really hard on a new blog, called MirandaStyleSource!

it’s not one that majority of you would want to follow, as it’s aimed towards a different audience(?) if you’re familiar with the hit show icarly, it’s a blog that follows the main character carly (miranda cosgrove) and what she wears in and out of the show.

i really admire her fashion and many people wonder about where she gets her clothes so i figured if i made a blog for it, i would get lots of viewers, and i have! but i’ve noticed the ratings on this blog have started to go down a bit so i wanted to give you an update.

you can check it out for fun, however it’s not finished, and subscribe to it on bloglovin’ just for the hell of it, if you want! :D

love you all, i’ll start to post normally again once i get caught up to date on my other blog (i’m only in january 2010 so far! :P)

so a while ago i had star testing at school! and that means school ended at 12:30 :)

all i can say is i definitely BSed the history part.

my logic: ‘it can’t be A because the last one was A, and i got two C’s before that, and a D before that. why would there be no B’s? it’s B. wait…no. wait yes it is! it HAS TO BE! …. i’ll just choose A because i chose A as the last one.’

then 20 mins later i erase it and write B ♥ LOL!

ANYWAY so there are some things my mom bought for me a  realllllyy long time ago that i forgot to update! so here they are :)

first: two postcards! the seller accidentally sent the wrong one and sent me the right one for free ^_^

fantastic dolly & rose toilette i think?

how sweet!!

number two, h&m floral dress! i’ve wanted this for like ever :) i’m not afraid to admit that i wanted it because miranda cosgrove wore it on icarly! LOL

and it was fairly price at $19.99 w/free shipping!

nicely folded.

it’s a liiiiiittle big, but better big than small (so i’ve learned!)

here’s a pic of me wearing it at the SF zoo with my friend! :)

and aww, a sweet business card!

next: sheer black & white blouse! i love this. i had one that was solid but it’s not as flattering as this one.

oh and…can you say awkward? should have worn a black cami underneath, lol.

worn together as a joke: LOLOLOL it’s really ugly ;o;

look, built in petti! love it!

next item, kate spade pray for japan tote! they had a few left at my local store, yay~

it got dirty when i went to a conference over the week tho…ughhh oh well i’ll clean it ;o;

i seriously think it has boogers on it…like i thought it was dirt at first but….-cringe- nevermind that.

i also got my dreamy dollhouse pillowcase in pink! SORRY the pics are gross. i’ll take better ones later on.

yay it matches my salopette at least! <3

i need to find a pillow size that will fit it….O___O

here’s some other stuff that i didn’t feel like taking pics of :)

free people floral shirt $26

ivory polka dot tights $3!!

time for finals this week. fml.

HEY EVERYONE!

i have super exciting news! after nearly 4 years of searching, i’ve finally found the open roads/menswear free people dress in red that i’ve always wanted. it’s finally mine!

i’ve been so eagar to get it ever since i saw it in merry christmas drake & josh, worn by miranda cosgrove who plays megan.

however i’m rather upset. i am really annoyed at the pleating on this dress. it really doesn’t do justice towards my torso area, as i haven’t gotten…very many curves there? lmao idk, it just looks so sloppy and awkward!!

i purchased it in my normal free people dress size, which was very lucky since it’s extremely rare, but i also found it in one size larger but i thought it would be ‘too big’ which is why i went with the smaller size…and now i’m nervous that it’s either too small or just looks weird at my torso! everywhere else fits EXCEPT THE MIDSECTION! x_x

i’ve tried wearing a VERY light petticoat, since in the photos below it seems miranda cosgrove is wearing a red slip(?) and i think it just makes my hips look…wider. >_< honestly.

i’ve tried wearing my best spanx, which i wore under my graduation dress which helped me fit, and it kind of defines my shape but barely.

i know i’m not a model and they’re extremely skinny but i still feel like the fitting/pleating shouldn’t have been an issue :(

i don’t want to make any alterations or anything but i want to be able to make this dress work on me! :(

photos: (i know, awkwarddddd!)

can you guys please help me out,

if i have any readers out there?

even if you’re embarassed to comment because i know you in person or if you just tend to skim over my blog ;; it would really REALLY mean a lot to me for advice; i’m really heartbroken that i can’t make this dress work.

and just for fun, here are some photos of miranda cosgrove wearing it :) (click for larger)
