jcrew ring dupe

So I saw my attending wear this ring and of course i LOVED it.   But 29 dollars for a fun ring..and it can be only ordered online??  ughhhh man jcrew i hate u/love u.


jcrew Fiver ring buy it!

But look at this dupe I found at Charlotte Russe for FOUR bucks!   I'm surprised by the quality of their rings.  Forever 21 rings seem to get cheaper and cheaper looking..esp now with that stretchy band they use BLAH.

buy it!

my first time at the korean spa

SOoo my friend took me to a korean spa in Chicago and it was SO FUN - head bun and all!!  It's called www.kingspa.com.  So I thought I'd blog about my experience there.

You first enter and take off your shoes and place it into a cubby.

  They give you a wrist band with a sensor on it  which they will use to charge any purchase on.   You then enter the spa and get naked to rinse down.



 This was probably the worst part cause everyone was naked.  But it was all old ajima's (old korean ladies) , kids, and some girls my age.  No one acted weird, so after a while it wasn't too bad.    They also offer a scrub down where you lay on a table and with a scrub glow they rub u down to get off all ur dead skin.  My friend says it feels really good.  I wasn't adventurous enough to do it today.  Maybe next time.  =)

Then you enter the lounge which is unisex.   They have huge ornate pink chairs!

me lounging in the huge chair

 Here they have a huge sitting area, food court, and multiple themed hot rooms.  We first sat around and tried all the hot rooms.   There were probably like 10 different themed steam rooms.

rock room
pyramid room - real gold plated!
entrance to the salt room
Then of course we ate!   We got smoothies and dukbokigi , soup, rice, and of course shaved ice patbingsoo!

Then we went into the theater room, where they have THE MOST comfortable leather recliners ever.   They were playing Harry Potter so we mossy on in to relax.

We both feel asleep  lol.

Woke up and ate some more.


layed around some more and called it a day.   It was like being in your pj's and lounging around a really big house.  So it was really fun and relaxing.  lol.   If you guys ever visit, we def have to hit up the spa again.   It was so fun and relaxing I wish they had more around!


shoes

betsy Johnson Ruffle belts from Marshalls $14 which one should I keep?  Brown or black?

DSW Franco Strato $30



DSW - Naturalizer Bridal Brown Step Up $35
omg because these shoes are Naturalizer...they are SOOO comfortable...more comfortable than my flats i dare say.  Just gotta figure what to wear them with.

I also got the same cardi Shopaholicness got from AnnTaylor Loft!  but they only had it in pink =(

haul continues

So more from my recent haul.  I also ordered 2 things from ASOS from their sale which i mentioned a few post back.  They finally came and and I will say I am extremely happy with my purchase.  Free shipping and all =D

The first is this pink tulip skirt  $20 ASOS.   The necklace is from Macy and Forever 21, see previous post, and the belt is jcrew, sweater is from Zara, tank is from F21.



Dress:  ASOS  $19
2nd thing from the site.   I saw my friend wear this and LOVED it.   So when I saw it on sale i was super happy.

Now this dress is super tight so I ordered one size up but in petite and it fits great.  It's from the body conscious collection.  The dress is tight but the fabric makes it less revealing and is actually slimming in effect.   I'm super happy with this dress cause you can put a cardi/blazer over it, wear it to work cause its knee length.  But take off the cardi and the dress alone is more of party dinner dress cause the back is open.  Love the knitted collar detail and I'm impressed with ASOS' quality.








Remember I mentioned i wanted more lace.  Well I got this top from Forever21 from my recent haul.  I'm a big fan of buttons, puffy 3/4 sleeves.   The band at the waist makes this a super cute top with skinnies or pencil skirts.  Fover 21 lace top $15


I recently also been getting into thin headbands.  I like how they're simple and also you can add two or more for different layering effects.  The first two are  from Jcrew outlet  $14 each and the gold stud one is from H&M $5
