Jewelry Haul: H&M, F21, Brandy Melville, Topshop

I've gone a bit nuts, right? Jewelry is seriously like crack or candy to me.

These are from H&M, Forever 21, Brandy Melville, and Topshop. I've had my eye on a 

few of them, like the crystal bullet necklace but I never got around to buying it until now. 

I also went a little crazy with the ear cuffs. I know how to make them but

when I saw that Topshop had them on sale for 75% off, I couldn't resist.

You'll see a lot of gold too, since it's my absolute favorite.

H&M

Gold choker / cuff necklace, gold spike earrings, gold ear cuff, black stone ring, blue stone ring

FOREVER 21

Gold chunky chain necklace, gold tribal-esque arm cuff, gold geometric beaded bracelet, black leaf ring

Food & Fashion

I promise I'll have some "real" blog posts soon! On Friday I'll be attending an 18th birthday party so I'll be sure to take a few shots of my party outfit, hair, and makeup. As for now, instagram will have to do. I'm actually doing a summer session for college which pretty much means I've been going to school since the month started. The good news is that I only have 8 classes left for psychology! After that, I'll finally be able to show you guys the many many many DIY projects that have been floating in my brain for a long time now...

...such as: pearl-studded collars / shirts, double chain ear cuffs, fan necklace recreation of a Free People necklace, double-finger chain ring, floral pocket tee / shorts, & many more.

Follow me on instagram! @love-confides

When I go easy on the neckbling, I opt for my DIY studded collar.

Thai Iced Tea Slush with rainbow jelly -- you must try!

Last friday's OOTD when I headed out to take Trisha to her first trip to Serendipity 3.

We got 2 delicious Frozen Hot Chocolates and a slice of cheesecake. HEAVEN!

Another OOTD from last week. Neon pink & bright yellow.

Neck blingggggggg.

That one day last week when it reached 100 degrees here in NYC -___- never again, please

Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade and patterned maxi for the win.

Did some shopping at SoHo and passed by Aritzia

but Topshop was the real deal....why?...

....because Topshop had a gigantic sale on bags, jewelry, clothes, the whole shabang!

Of course I walked out buying something.

Went on a serious ice cream run with the wolf pack on saturday night....it was awesome.

Then yesterday, the office gang went out for McFlurries and smoothies....which was also awesome.

Did some more shopping at Forever21 for jewelry and a lace top to wear for Friday's party.
I never wear earrings since I have gauges but when I saw these huge chandelier earrings, I couldn't resist! I threw in some arm candy too of course. (:

Christmas/Birthday Wishlist

I have been relaxing at work today and decided to lay out what I would like in my Christmas wishlist. My birthday is also on January 1st, yes New Year's baby, so I figured I might as well compile a major list of what I want. My deal with myself though is that if I attain a 4.0 gpa after this fall semsester (my first semester of college), I would treat myself with nice shoes.

Sperry Top Siders

I've been eyeing these ever since I tried them on over the summer. I had just started working so I didn't have any savings yet. They were so comfortable and for me, comfort is the ultimate rule. I'm thinking of getting them (same exact color) as a Christmas gift for myself.

Urban Decay - Naked 2

*Sigh* This palette just came out on December 2 and it's already sold out! Getting this one may be a bit of a challege, but it's not an excuse to take it off my list. The pigments look absolutely gorgeous! I need to own this atleast by next year if not this Christmas season.

Topshop - AMBUSH Black Glitter Boots

 These boots are just LOVE. The height is just right for me, not too high. The glitter is definetly hot. It's pricey at $160, so these would count as a splurge for me. I doubt I would be getting them anytime soon. I'm also not sure of the probability that these will be available at the Topshop in SoHo, the only one in the US. But it's so beautiful!

Burgundy/Maroon circle scarf

It's one of my favorite colors at the moment. I already own a mustard knitted scarf. One in this color would satify my hunger for circle scarves, hehe!

Velvet Dresses

I have the blue velvet dress already. But look how show-stopping the red one looks too!

Cheetah Loafers with studs

Need I say more? These would look killer with an all black outfit. Especially with a leather jacket. Again, these would most likely be a splurge for me.

Clarks Desert Boots

I think my cousin and guy friends have been influencing me too much. They all own a pair of sperry topsiders & Clarks. But still, it looks so perfect for winter! Plus, the suede material is so dreamy.
