I decided to take my own advice and dressed Parisian-ish yesterday.  This obviously isn't as awesome as the outfits I posted yesterday but I worked with what I had!  I bought this perfectly striped sweater at Banana Republic on Saturday for only $9.97...SCORE! Went straight to the clearance section and kept digging hoping I would find something under $20 and, luckily, I did!  I feel a bit Where's Waldo in this because it's so colorful, but that's okay...we can all use a little whimsy in our lives.

Sweater: Banana Republic $10, Pants: ASOS $35, Flats: Missoni for Target $30, Sunglasses: MICHAEL Michael Kors (Marshalls) $20, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits, Rings: old and c/o OASAP, Watch: Michael Kors, Purse: Marc by Marc Jacobs

Well this was an interesting week. As many of you know I've been a bit unhappy with my situation at work (too stressful when it doesn't need to be that way...not a good environment,) well last week one of my bosses and I came to an agreement about my hours. I'll be leaving at 3:30 each day instead of 5, so hopefully that helps, if not I'll have to come up with another solution. This way I can focus a bit more on fashion during the day because my dream is to work in fashion, most likely web programming (front-end). It's going to take a lot of work and maybe some online courses in fashion history, etc. but I have a feeling some big changes are on the horizon!

Anywayyy, this week was odd in other ways too. On Monday night there was a huge brush fire in my town and I didn't hear about it until a friend called to see if I was okay, luckily I was... I went outside and the smell of smoke was in the air as well as ashes falling from the sky. The fire was far away from me but it was really windy so the ashes were flying all over the place. It was so eerie!

This weekend I'm planning on doing some major retail therapy. I have a 25% off coupon for Lord & Taylor (and 10% off cosmetics) so I see some awesome new clothes and perhaps some more Chanel makeup in my future! And maybe a stop at TJ Maxx and Marshalls. I also have $40 for DSW!! (and grocery shopping...haha)

UPDATE: Bloggers, rejoice! I am no longer a shorts with tights virgin!  Ever since I bought these Zara shorts I've been wanting to wear them with my Moschino jacket as sort of a pseudo suit, but the weather has never been just right. But today I decided that I would bite the bullet and utilize one of the trends I was always afraid of to make it work before it's too hot for the blazer: shorts with tights!  What do you think, is it okay?... (the colors match a little better in person, ha ha)

Here's the last of my vacation posts! Sorry for the photo spam but I didn't want to split this post in half because I have so many other things to post this week that you guys will love!  The last two days of our trip we did a whirlwind tour of London trying to see as many sights as possible.  We went to all the usual sights and made sure to have tea at the Sanderson Hotel, it was called the Mad Hatter Tea.  We also ate at two pubs, where I actually drank alcohol! For those of you that know me that is a big deal! I hate most alcoholic beverages because I can feel the bubbles and it bothers me, but we had Pimms and it was sooo tasty!

Day 5 - Sweater: Ami Dans La Rue (Shopbop) gift card, Tank: Ellen Tracy (Marshalls) $12, Belt: Kenneth Cole Reaction (Marshalls) $7, Jeans: Guess $15, Flats: H&M $13, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits, Rings: old & c/o OASAP, Sunglasses: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Shopbop) gift card, Watch: Michael Kors, Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs

We also visited the hotel's pool and I stupidly forgot my coverup so here's what I wore down to the pool...classy, right?! Bathing suit: Michael Kors, Shorts: Zara
And one last bit of eye candy, this was the cute guy I was staring at while we were waiting for out table for the Mad Hatter Tea...I hope he didn't notice. Soooooo good looking! (the picture doesn't do him justice)
Today's post is all about the Grand Opening Celebration for Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter!  It was held on Saturday March 31st and it didn't start until 3 but we had to arrive before 12:30 to check in.  We got there at 12 and had to hang around in the FREEZING cold waiting for it to begin.  This was the only cold day of our trip though, so we couldn't really complain.  BUT I can complain about some of the other annoying fan site people who were there to report on the event, we have a VERY finite space on the carpet (about a sheet of letter-sized paper) and some were taking up more than their allotted space...very annoying. So we were quite squished (see the photo below). 
Outfit: Dress: Edun via The Outnet $100 (with gift card), Blazer: The Extreme Collection (Second Time Around) $50, Booties: No.704b. (DSW) $20, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits, Rings: old & c/o OASAP, Watch: Michael Kors, Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs

You can see all the photos from the red carpet at Magical-Menagerie! Enjoy!  I should also have a video up soon on Magical-Menagerie...just waiting for the video files to be sent. UPDATE: Here is the video (I am not the one asking questions, I was taking photos...but I thought of most of the questions ;) )



Tom Felton, Warwick Davis, Evanna Lynch, Harry Melling, David Yates, Alfonso Cuaron, David Heyman, Rupert Grint 
How awesome does Harry Melling look!? He played Dudley, aka Harry's fat cousin, and looks soooo great! He loved my question too! We asked what it was like moving from playing a muggle in Harry Potter to a wizard in the last series of Merlin! 

Also, I had a tiny panic attack when Eddie Redmayne walked by...I LOVE HIM!  If you can't tell by the photo he is a Burberry model and an actor (he was in My Week with Marylin) ;)
After the red carpet my 2 friends and I headed to Pizza Express with two other girls who were reporting on the red carpet.  I had been told Pizza Express has amazing dough balls, and it was SO true! They are DELISH!!!! They are basically balls of pizza dough that you dip in garlic butter (or nutella if you get the dessert version)
