MARCH FORWARD

I can't believe it's already March! Only 1 ½ months of school left! I've mentioned (complained about) school and my stressful workload probably a little more than necessary on my blog, but I don't think I've given you many specifics; in May I will achieve my Bachelor of Science degree in Textile Sciences and I'm very excited! I've ordered a gorgeous dress for graduation and I can't wait to share it with you all a few months from now! After graduation I do have some plans but I'm keeping those under wraps for now...~so mysterious~

Anyways, it was a beautiful day to go outside and play with my puppies! You've already met Miley (above), so allow me to introduce you to my other little (and big) angels!

This is Deke, my German Shepard who thinks he is a chihuahua. I love him to death but he is so oblivious to his size and strength - it's hard to tell because he's so big, but he is actually still a puppy!

This is Tay, he is a purebred Chihuahua like Miley. I rescued him from an abusive family when he was one year old. I couldn't imagine anyone wanting to harm him - he is perfect (and very photogenic, unlike Miley)! Tay is now 7 years-old, happier and healthier than ever.

And for lip color, I'm wearing the latest addition to my collection of MAC lipsticks, "So Chaud". It's an intense reddish-orange with a matte finish. A hot alternative to my traditional red!

Hope you all had a fantastical week! A huge congrats to Team Canada for winning gold in men's ice hockey yesterday in an unreal game against Team USA, bringing our total gold medal count to a history-making 14! I'm very proud to be Canadian, our entire nation is smiling right now! Congratulations to all the countries and athletes who participated in the Winter Games in Van this year, what a memorable experience!

Hope you all have a great week! xoxo Antonia

COLORBLOCK

Thank you to my love Jael who sent me these awesome Deena & Ozzy colorblock wedges from Montreal. I lovelovelove them! Would they look awesome paired with ~these~ ASOS two tone tights, or no? Kind of want..

I have so much to update you guys on but so little time right now - life has been very hectic lately (but in a good way)! I haven't forgotten you - I love reading all your comments and e-mails! Remember, you can always follow me on Twitter too! I'm kind of addicted.

I hope you all had a romantical Valentine's day with your lover(s) and for those of you at NYFW, I hope you're having an amazingly fabulous time! Also, congrats to Alexandre Bilodeau for winning the first gold for Canada at the Winter Games on our home turf!! Peace and love! Xoxoxox, Antonia

I'M STILL ALIVE

Sorry I've left you all hanging, school is really hectic (as per usual) and my outfits (and clearly my hair) have been suffering. Luckily I have next week off and lots of time to catch up on homework and blogging! Hope you are all well!

xoxo Antonia

BUSY BUSY

Hey loves, just a quick post (sorry, no outfit! Just me and the not-so-photogenic Miley) to say I hope you are all having a wonderful week! TGIF tomorrow, right!? The next few weeks are going to be INSANELY busy for me, so expect a gradual slow down in posts. Until then, leave some love- I'll try and get back to all your comments!

xoxo Antonia

COLOR WARS

I DIE for a good print and luckily spring 2010 runways were packed with oversized patterns and bold colors. With designers such as Dries Van Noten, Diane Von Furstenberg, Etro, and Marc Jacobs mixing and matching these design elements from head to toe, tribal motifs, abstract patterns, and geometric designs are huge right now - and you know you'll be seeing me in these trends - I live for color!

P.S: I am in looooooove with that outrageous Marc Jacobs Day Glow cropped tweed jacket; there is something so amazingly hideous and beautiful about it that I am insanely attracted to.

Will you be wearing tons of color and mix-matching prints this spring?

EMPTY

Alas, my all time favorite lipstick has run out (well, not completely, I'm still using what's left of it out of desperation). The shade is "Gladiola" from the Dame Edna for M.A.C Cosmetics Winter 2008 collection and I first bought it back in January '09. I was then forced to repurchase it after my dog tragically mauled my first one; I franctically called all the M.A.C counters in Winnipeg before I found one left in the entire city. I then drove about an hour out of my way to get the little tube of lipstick, but it was totally worth it as I wore it almost every day. But now my dear Gladiola is in its final days...RIP.

*Sigh*, the things we do for beauty right? I may have to repurchase it on eBay off something...

P.S: I needed a change and made a new blog header! Thoughts?
