I've already pointed out the Bratz in the wonderful world of girly toys, but wait there's more! These Divaz remind me of big eyed Blythe
They are all a bit scary if you ask me, but their websites are fun fun fun!

I just had to share a cheapy yet trendy shopping spot for those of us in San Francisco and for anyone planning to visit- Clobba (there's one on Castro Street and one on Haight Street). Yesterday I picked up a faded denim skirt, deep teal, pintucked corduroy pants, a black lace corset and a charcoal grey, cowl neck sweater. It helped that my friend who works there gave me a fat discount, but everything's cheap there anyway!

I just found my world wide web twin!
based solely on her last journal entry of favorite things:
scarves and mittens, photoshop, (her taste in music) Tribe Called Quest, Beck, Brazillian Music, The Rentals, JackJohnson, Manu Chao, and much much more of course,, a good juke box, Classic Italian on wheat with everything on it, Finding a $5.00 bill hidden in my wallet which goes towards a Classic Italian on wheat with everything on it, periwinkle blue, dark pink, unagi, shake, and rice (sushi),...snowboarding soon in the next few weeks,... sunshine, storms, sleepytime tea, and waking up really early to see the sunrise.
I took out a few things. can't agree on everything!

I'm really digging the pick*y cosmetics website! A couple of DIY girls after my own heart!
I've got the moisture stick to go (in Luscious!) and the surprise flower soap (in cream!) waiting in my cart.

I wish shipping wasn't so expensive on net-a-porter! They have such good deals in the sale section, but add shipping and the value disappears. I am also in love with that skirt on Ned and Shell, it's definitly on my to-buy list. Tonight I am going to Neiman's for the preview sale. Don't have any cash, so hopefully I won't find anything I HAVE to have!

I'm checking out nedandshell.com right now on Ouisie's recommendation!
I've already filled out the style profile and it says I'm a Trend Setter (or I like to think I am :P) and I've filled out an order for a magalog.
(Have you gotten yours yet, Ouisie?)
I think the SPYNE, SPIRAL NEBULA SKIRT is going on my wishlist for the holidays.

and how could I have forgotten to include shesheme.com for all you chichi girls?!

Today's Objective = find myself a part-time job for the following reasons:
a) to keep myself busy
b) extra cash is always good
c) store discount! for Xmas presents of course.
d) meet more people in this city. guys, girly girls, whatever. it's always good to meet new people.

first attempt: Crate and Barrel
As soon as I walked into this place, I was beating myself up for not applying sooner! I wanted everything I saw in there. Furniture, plates, martini olive dish...
BUT it seems that they have already hired their fill for the holidays.
damn.

second attempt: Anthropologie
Good gift giving source. and beautiful clothes. a little over priced, but that's what the discount is for, right?
I was given an application and was informed that there was an open interview at 9:30 a.m. on Sunday mornings.

next: stores in the Nordstrom Center. ugh. mall shops.
oh well, they are always hiring :T

Victoria's Secret
They had a sign in the window. 30% off for employees. not bad, eh?
But not a very good source for Xmas presents.
I filled out a very generic application, basically asking when can you work and what holidays you want off.
Sign me up :P

I jotted down the e-mail address for the Club Monaco that is supposed to open later this month and picked up an application for the Body Shop (40% off!) right before I walked out the door. Talk about frustrating. yuck.
