Aritzia, F21 and Gmarket Purchases

Bought a few items from various place, from Aritzia, Forever 21 and Gmarket in the last few months but didn't have time to upload the pictures.  I am actually quite behind with blogging! So sorry about that!  I shall try harder to upload my photos!  Anywho, on with the shopping post!

Aritzia Purchase
I bought a pair of maroon coloured leggings from Aritzia.  The brand is Talula and I have a few other pairs of black versions from this brand and I would say it is well worth it.  The leggings don't pill and are super soft.  They costs $22.00CAD and you can actually buy them online now as Aritzia has an online site now.
Forever 21 Purchase
On cyber Monday I bought a pair of sneakers from the Forever 21 website.  They were so cute and they remind me of the bag I bought from Gmarket. Shipping was free that day and the shoes actually came within a week!  So crazy fast.  The shoes were $23.80CAD and look adorable with shorts!  I also bought a floral blouse and 3 pairs of jeans from F21.  I bought those at the downtown F21 and not online.  I actually couldn't find them online.  The jeans were $12.80 and so comfortable!  The blouse was $19.80CAD.

Gmarket Purchase
I was initially shopping for a ipad cover for my bf for one of his bday gifts but also found some shirts for me! My bf's ipad case was about $20.00CAD and it came with a screen protector and a pen.  This purchase is well worth it!  I think the wood pattern is so cool!  Can't get anything locally for this price! :)

look at that pattern!  Looks like hard wood floors..lol
bonus pen!
I bought 1 casual long sleeve tee and dressy sweater.  Both shirts are long in length, which was exactly what I was looking for as I could not find any of those lengths locally.  Everything now seems cropped and I wanted the length so that I can wear leggings and not show my bum.  I also bought 2 Holika Holika waterproof pencil eyeliners. The eyeliners were very good, comparable to my Make Up Forever Aqua eyes!  The eyeliners were $4.00CAD
The shirts:  The rabbit shirt was $12.00CAD.  The feather sweater was $17.00CAD.

Happy shopping everyone!

Toms Ballet Flats- Burlap Alessandra

After purchasing a pair of Toms ballet flats in Seattle that were a tad small I kept thinking that I need to buy myself another pair that actually fits.  I originally wanted the Alessandra burlap beige/black combo but I couldn't find them in Washington.  I got desperate and looked all around Vancouver for them and could not find them, seriously it was like "錢都買到" .  I went to places that should carry it OR had carried it earlier.  I went to Aritzia and other shoe stores in Downtown, Vancouver that supposedly should carry them and found out that they don't.  I went to Hills of Kerrisdale and they "had" them but shipped them back to the manufacturer because people complained of the weird fit.  -_____-  The Toms Canadian website had limited styles and I didn't want to shop online for them as I wanted to try the 6.5 and the 7.  I was surfing the Toms site and they so happened to have the Alessandra burlap in stock and I ended up buying it.  I purchased a size 7 as I think I'd prefer it be a bit big than too small.  The shipping took less than a week!  They are a little on the big side but I can always wear inserts!  They were $90.00CAD and with shipping it came to $107.00CAD.
