Pretty sweet deal I found at Winners. An Equipment blouse for $79.99. Usually, they're around $200. They only had medium in black but I compared it to the x-small in a different colour and the fit was basically the same, maybe just a tiny bit bigger.



Edit: I forgot the second 'p' in equipped. For shame.

I've always thought 3D TVs were kind of silly with having to wear those ugly glasses. Why not just wait until they come out with some that don't require them? And they're especially annoying to people who already wear glasses, e.g. me, but I may just have to switch sides now because I definitely wouldn't mind sporting these Giles Deacon ones.

As a broke college student, I'm always looking for cheaper alternatives so I've substituted Kate's outfit with more affordable finds. Instead of Proenza Schouler, I put a classic satchel from Asos, and instead of Isabel Marant boots, there's Sam Edelman. Zara should be coming out with an even better copy of them soon too, so look out for those. I feel like I should end this on an inspirational note, something like, thus proving that style doesn't rely on wealth...so there.
