Hope well, have well.

I know I really shouldn't be shopping, but of course I can't help it! LOL  My good friend Laura, swallow-and-the-swift, creates beautiful reconstructed vintage jewelry pieces and I was finally able to purchase something for myself.  This is my favorite necklace of the moment because I can mix it with my other gold chain necklaces.  Laura is selling her jewelry pieces at Kanibal Home,a home furnishing & lifestyle store, which recently opened downtown Jersey City and they are selling quickly, so make sure to stop by before these one of kind pieces are gone! :P

Speaking of Kanibal Home, I actually met the owner Kristen who is very sweet and kind.  We were talking and I am so excited because I am going to bring her some of my vintage pieces from OHMYVINTAGE that could be sold on consignment in her store.  I am SUPER excited!  :) I love her store and purchased many other items besides the gorgeous necklace above including a dress, feather headband & this awesome vintage pressed flower frame with butterflies:

*OHMYVINTAGE update:  Check out my other blog for store updates, I added adorable vintage hat pins to the Etsy shop.  Or check out the newly added items on the sidebar of my blog :P

*Other good news:  My boyfriend Patrick graduated from college & I am so proud of him!  Congrats honey!  I am so happy to have you home & closer to me :P

Hello my name is Kim...

and i'm a SHOPAHOLIC  (everyone:  hi kim!) ahahaha I have been shopping way too much. lol I have an addiction, I need help.  haha I can't help it, but as of now I really need to stop shopping and save my money.  I have enough clothes as it is.  However, I do need more work clothes... oh boy, that might just have to wait. lol here are pictures of my recent purchases that I have bought over the past couple of weeks:

F21 Purchases:

Betsey Johnson Purchases: 

Betsey Johnson was having a big SALE:  Buy one, get one FREE! Obviously, I could not pass up a good bargain. Luckily, my lovely boyfriend purchased one dress & got one free as an early birthday present (THANK YOU HONEY! :])  4 Betsey Johnson dresses & a pair of pink tulip earrings, OH YES!!! :P

AMT Vintage Purchases:

I love how my Hala Vintage eel skin handbag goes perfectly with my heels purchased from AMT.  The heels are very low which are good so I can wear them anytime & I just need to get the inside of the shoes glued down.  :)

Yesterday I watched Hancock with my boyfriend.  There are mixed reviews about this movie but I liked it.  I honestly think it could have been a little bit longer and more action.  Overall, I thought it was funny, emotional and had a lot of action.  

Yesterday, my boyfriend and I had dinner in Hoboken.  Afterwards, I had a craving for a chocolate milkshake so we went to the Frozen Monkey Cafe & bought a large Cookie Crunch Milkshake to share (it's so delicious, definitely worth my $5.45 hehe)

Look it's Ken & Barbie's house (they're divorced now hahaha, this is located in Edgewaters)

new blog :)

I decided to write in a new blog because I was getting sick of xanga. haha  Summer has been going pretty well.  Last month I graduated & I am officially done with school.  You know what that means... time to be an ADULT (LOL), I still have plenty of time. The future lays ahead of me & I am hoping for the best.  Therefore, I have been applying for many jobs & waiting "patiently," for interviews. :T  Meanwhile, I have been so busy this month and I need some time for myself.  There are many things I need to do at home such as: vacuum, do laundry, organize closet, and the list goes on and on.  It seems to me, no matter how much I clean up, there is always something piling in the corner. ugh!  This is going to be a long process.

Last week, I went to Atlantic City with my friend and boyfriend.  I won and lost.  However, my boyfriend was able to win it back for me (thanks honey! for winning my money and treating us out to dinner ;P)  While my boyfriend was gambling, my friend and I decided to go to the pier on the boardwalk and go shopping instead.  We went into the Betsey Johnson store and just wanted to shop with our eyes as well as try on some cute dresses.  I tried on this really cute dress from the SALE section and of course, i fell in LOVE (haha)  This dress can be worn for fall & summer. I really did not want to spend a lot of money, but my friend talked me into it and said that I should treat myself and purchase my own graduation present.  I also bought a pair of cute turquoise heart earrings.  This was my first purchase from Betsey Johnson's store because the only items I have from Betsey Johnson are vintage, but there's nothing wrong with that :)  

Here are my purchases:

 

• Betsey Johnson Turquoise Heart Earrings with Bows
  
• Betsey Johnson Strawberry Leopard Knit Dress (on SALE! it's still selling for the original price online.  thank goodness! I got it for a lower price, because I cannot afford something that high, not just yet :P)
  

I should have bought this bag while I was there, but I'll drool over it online until I can purchase this bag later on hehe:

This is the Betsey Johnson Call Me Betsey Handheld Handbag, I just think it's so cute & funny because it looks like a telephone.  The baby blue looks too much like a toy phone haha I love it so much! maybe I should put this on my birthday list :)  This is definitely a conversation starter ;P
