What I Learned and Lusted For Today



Today was my day off and before I get into what about the above lusted items in the picture. I want to address something very interesting that I learned about today. Haul Vlogging and how I just might have become just a lil bit hooked on those that do it. I'm a frequent reader of New York Magazine's The Cut. Even thought the writer irks me in some of the articles she writes. Anywho this particular piece was about the phenomena of vlogging (video blogging) and basically how she thinks it's kinda pathetic. In all honestly when I first heard of girls that did vlogging I didn't really get it at first but then I realized that hey it's no different really from what bloggers do and what I'm attempting to do right now. However I let you be judge here's the article.

Is it bad that I watched some vlogs on youtube for like half the day and become hooked on one in particular Dulce Candy. I love her and she is so adorable and an admirable person (she does'nt just shop all day she's served her country). Plus I feel a lot better about my shopping habit because this girl can shop her ass off. No way can I can be chatised for shopping ever again from my Mum or my hubby lol.

Ok and to what I Lusted after today. These Forever 21 Love 21 floral shorts I must have. They sold out before I could buy them and I was not sacrificing my account over them. So gone there are...maybe. I'm plan on hitting up New York's Forever 21 when I visit to see if they have them. The second picture is Urban Outfitters dress that I gotta have for spring but my size is being backordered for May 5th which gives me time to come up with 100 bucks to spend on it I guess. I can't wait for spring to come!!! I can't wait to be pretty prissy again lol. Even though I will be hopefully spending my summer back in school.

A lil Bit About Me


I just realized I never properly introduced myself and the purpose of this blog. My name is Ree and I'm originally from New York. This blog was intended to be a fashion blog but i dunno anymore. I might just get the feeling to say whatever I damm well may please depending on the situation. Um....I'm a recovering shopaholic, taking baby steps is the way to go although today I realized I'm not as bad as some of the other girls out there lol. I hope to gain some wisdom and meet some new peeps while blogging and I promise myself I will no longer lurk. I will actually try to comment on most of the kick ass sites I've discovered over the last half of year. All that being typed; I hope you all have a positive day. Love

I Gotta a Chip on My Shoulder. So Im Skipping Town

Away I will be in about a week to my birthplace New York City...just a lil surprise trip I decided to tag along on. Away I need to be right now to take a break from every nuance that has been pestering me for the last month. It'll be a roadtrip; roadtrips are my favorite thing to do in the world. It's just something about them that are just so peaceful to me especially the New York trips. I doubt the weather will be as pretty as it is in the picture when I ride through the George Washington Bridge. I checked the weather it's suppose to rain and be dreary my first couple of days there. I dont know how much shopping I will be doing when I get there for the simple fact that shopping is not really the purpose of the trip and Im gonna a broke ass because I'll be trying to pay every single bill there is before I go to catch up on everything. So family and relaxation it will be for about a week.
