I've been ridiculously lucky with thrifting recently. I stopped by a random Salvation Army store just on a whim, since I enjoy exploring thrift stores to see what quirky things they have, and I found two awesome things! This Gucci bag was only $4, and it's authentic! I also found a cute little black dress from Theory for $6. :)

I had quite a bit of luck shopping these past few days. I purchased my second quilted Burberry jacket for only $35, a new little vintage Dooney & Bourke bag for $20 and a silk Fendi scarf for $22. I also want to share the gorgeous gifts my boyfriend got me for Valentine's day....a pair of Kate Spade earrings and my first pair of Manolo Blahniks, a pair of quilted ballerinas that I had wanted for quite some time, worth $675, mine for only $50!!

Happy Valentine's day everyone! I'm about to go out and get sushi with my boyfriend but first I am making a blog post. I'd like to wish you all a very happy Valentine's day. Even if you don't have a significant other, you are loved by many people! Including me =D <3

I am beyond in love with my new phone. I got the iPhone 4S recently, and it's great. :)

I'm making the introduction to this Currently Coveting post a photo I posted on Instagram today of me and my boyfriend haha. Today I went to the gym and did a little bit of shopping, but I showed great restraint and didn't buy myself anything! I snapped a couple of photos of things I want, though =P

Happy Tuesday everyone! I've been busy with school lately, but today I have some time to myself so I figured I'd go to the gym, make a blog post, and spend some time with my boyfriend haha. I recently got two new Chanel nail polishes - Jade Rose (my first neutral!) and April.

This week I got two sweaters, and my order from Hautelook arrived. :)

I am so excited about this post! I had a truly wonderful day today and on top of that, I found some amazing stuff. I apologize for the not exactly superb photographs, but I recently started school so I'm not able to be home at the best times for good lighting. All of the items in this post were thrifted from different places (on different days haha), and I love everything I got.
