New posts on their way! Tutorial(in this post)

New post coming soonnn

I'm trying to make things work without my phone. I seriously need to improve my repertoire of tech gadgets. Why oh why didn't I get a job this vacation >.< Oh well.

I went spending and spending these two weeks after the chicken pox. 

I was cooped up for so long (not really... I enjoyed every minute @.@ kdramas) 

When I was released from my cave I just went crazy... I didn't buy much but the amount of walking and store checking I did I could be an Olympian in shopping. 

Every store worth anytime I checked out in Port of Spain and Central. I still didn't hit up south since my emancipation but I did frequent there often right before I got sick.

Some of the stores I bought stuff from were:
Micles
Wonderful World
Shoeaholics
Bang Bang
J&K Signature Styles

These are my most frequented local stores, Bang Bang not so much because it's far from where I live but when I did go I was able to pick up some nice items during their sale. 

Here's a sneak peek of the upcoming outfit ;)

Post Paint Party Duds

Green, paint, distressed, matelot, shorts :D 

Pic doesn't do it justiceee. So this is part of the reprise or repeating as I've worn these shorts a lot (used to be off-white) and now with this paint makeover I can continue to wear them yayz!

A little artsy shorts never hurt nobodyyy. Unless the paint is still running and you get wet... Make sure and wash before wearing! :) Maybe I should do a tutorial for these shorts...

Paint Party Shorts
Step 1: Buy ticket to a paint party
Step 2: Purchase light(pastel or white) coloured shorts
Step 3: Attend party in shorts and get soaked in different colours of paint
 (avoid carrying Iphone)
Step 4: Get washed down with a powerful hose
Step 5: Allow remaining paint to soak into fabric for about 2hours
Step 6: Lightly rinse shorts in cold water and leave out on balcony to dry
Step 7: While still damp, put in a plastic bag and leave shut for 6hours 
Step 8: Remove shorts from bag and hang to dry
Step 9: Tell your mum about the shorts
Step 10: Let her handle the rest
Step 11: Your shorts will now be magically clean and have lovely worn in paint stains

Okay okay, so from Steps 9-11 you just gotta wash your shorts like a normal coloured item and put them in the dryer.
When I figure out how to do this without going to a party I'll seriously post :3

Thnx for your patience

Shopping on a whim (rant)

So I went shopping yesterday and came back with nothing... 

Apart from a crimson textured pencil skirt, that was a size too big and had a lil pull. I saw not a thing I wanted.  Usually I buy at least one thing but for some reason nothing really appealed to me. 

This brings me to my thoughts about outlet stores in Trinidad.  They rarely have  extraordinary pieces or anything different from the norm. I usually diggg to find the few unique pieces I have from some of the chain outlets. 

Shopping isn't horrible here just for those willing to pay $400TT for a shoe that sells for $25US. I just can't, sorry. That's why it's important to know the good brands from the lower end brands and know what you're paying for. I can't agree with a seller making 200% profit on my head :(

Ah this island life...
