Shopping in Soho

I am in New York for the summer, and with that comes loads of amazing shopping places.
Yesterday I went to Soho and went to TopShop and got this dress. I love it. Other notable stores that I went to were Uniqlo (which is like the Japanese version of H&M and American Apparel) and All Saints which was by far my favorite.
But I was a good girl and only got this one dress from TopShop, where i get 10% for being a student!

This Summer:


So I know I've talked about jumpers before, but I finally bought one. It's my favorite piece of clothing for a few reasons; like a dress, you can throw it on, and be completely put together, also, it's light and summery, also It's comfy. That's it.
My other obessions include oxford shoes. love them. always.

2010 So far:

Well I thought my life would slow down after the Threads Fashion Show, but boy was I wrong. This semester has been wonderful for the most part. I LOVE my pattern making class. I'm learning so much. Since my last post, I have won the YMA Scholarship (Find me under the SCHOLARS section 2010), spent a week in Pittsburgh with George, spent 2 days in NYC (for the first time!) at the YMA scholarship ceremony, and now I am taking an internship in NYC this summer to work at VF Corp under the Nautica Storeroom Manager. Yes, I am excited. Yes, sometimes the thought makes me want to throw up from nerves. No, I didn't expect all this. Yes, I think it's going to be fantastic. My mood lately can only be explained by "!!!!!"

getting ready for winter



So i've been crocheting, and i also blew my hard earned money on a new coat. What else is new!

School is coming to a close, my projects are mounting, exams are lurking around the corner. I'm just ready for this semester to be over. In other news, I finished the YMA scholarship i mentioned earlier and i'll find out on the 15th!

finished another chapter.

I've had an eventful last 2 months to say the least. But finally things are looking up. Today was the first day of school which went swimmingly, and actually made me excited to be there for once. I am mostly looking forward to this YMA (Young Menswear Association) scholarship that I'll be applying for, which would greatly propel me into the career I've worked so hard on for the past 2 years.
Most recently I came to the conclusion that I should get my own place to call my own with Sir Charles. I had thought of it in the back of my mind when George left for Law school, just because my current residence has so many memories. I've found a new location which I am so excited about. I've started planning where to put things, thinking up different methods. It's a large studio room, that has amazing potential, though its not mine officially, i intend on making the down payment as soon as my landlord and my future landlord will allow.
Work has been hectic, but I am told that there is a winter lull which couldn't come sooner.
My fractured pelvis is almost fully healed, no crutches, no limp, still can't run though. I'm due for another check up then hopefully I won't be bothered by it any longer.
I haven't bought anything of interest lately. I have been slightly obsessed with the romper... though i know it's just not meant for my body type.
