a city girl's indulgences

I'm a city girl who has an interest in everything

A kid at heart, I was debating what to do with my life, and although nothing is definite, I'm determined to enjoy every moment and experience. This blog will focus on my life, post school and my attempts at being a grown up. From beauty advice, health tips, shopping, everyday faux pas, newest obsessions, you'll have a first-class ticket to an insight of the world through my eyes

I also have a personal blog and a twitter

8 DAYS UNTIL X-MAS!!! Are you done shopping bc I’m not!

Don’t get me wrong I’ve finished some people gifts but I’m still a bit stumped on the remaining people. What do you get for someone who is so special to you they deserve the best?

I’m going to try and do something personalized - more from the heart as well with something fancy!

Regardless to all you still searching! Happy shopping! And much luck until you can state: Done!

Christine and I after a day of shopping. (our bags are on the floor)

Adding to my last post - that convo was funny but definitely an eye-opener. Do I look big?.  I was actually a small but looking a small and being a small are two different things. This has actually just encouraged me to work out more so no big.

  • Christine: What size do you think she'd be?
  • Salesperson: (looking at me) um a medium?
  • Christine: A medium!?!?
  • Me: What size do you think she'd be?
  • Salesperson: (looking at Christine) She's definitely a small.
  • Christine: She (points at me) is actually smaller than me - she just has big boobs.

Christmas is almost here! I’m soo excited.

Although I still have some xmas shopping to do! I know I’m late, but I think that’s why people celebrate three kings day. (Jan 6th).

I personally got pooped over by Best Buy last year because of the 14 day policy.  Watch out for the companies that landed on the Naughty list!

Ladies, I dont know about you, but jeans shopping is probably the most tedious, frustrating thing to do. Great jeans are extremely hard to come by!  I always have a hard time finding something to accent my butt but also hug my thighs. Thankfully, this changed today!

On my shopping adventure I walked into Uniqlo.  Here I fell in love with the colors, organization and employees. It was amazing! But back to the issue on hand; I fell in love with the jeans! Not for nothing but my butt looks AH-MAZING! I could only imagine how it would make big butts look ;) .

The jeans themselves are made of 80% cotton, 17% polyester and 3% elastane.  This allows for maximum hugging ability. Best of it all is the price: $40!!!!!! ($39.50). I’m running back tomorrow and getting two more in different colors!!!

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So after wearing these jeans 2 times they stretched out - ALREADY! Say what?!?! I dont think so. I’m one of those people who don’t wash their jeans until it’s been an extremely gross amount of time.  I like them to start off tight and then with each wear accent your curves, hug your body like they’re painted on. But not these puppies, these are now baggy, not boyfriend jeans but sure as hell will be in a matter of 2 more wears! So do yourself a favor buy a size or two down. Trust me, it’s worth it, you don’t want baggy jeans!
