Magazines

Have you noticed that there are barely any good fashion magazines to read that still include pieces on music and books? I sure have. I can only list approximately two or three. 

1. Nylon Magazine
Nylon is this crazy U.S. magazine that I am practically in love with. It has the best articles on music, fashion, and pretty much anything you can think of.  NYLON MAG

2. Teen Vogue
Teen Vogue is one of those must-have teen magazines. It includes everything from beauty to insane fashion to amazing celebrities, while still staying fun. My sister(No Fear Fashion) and I got the newest issue today, and it has a great article about Willow Smith. I may write a post about her and her style soon! Teen Vogue

3. Sandbox Magazine
This is a local Winnipeg fashion magazine, and it's really amazing. I don't have much info on it, because it's my sister who reads it most. But there was an article on one of the ballet's prima ballerinas, and it was awesome. Sandbox Mag

Manic Mondays

Well hi there! I actually got this idea from Mina K's blog, where she does something called Seven Stuffs Saturdays. So I guess it's kinda stealing. But this is different. On Mondays I'm gonna pick a few insanely bright or edgy pieces of clothing or random objects that I think are cool to feature. So here goes:

1. Alexander McQueen Armadillo Shoes

The District.

Sounds like a weird thriller/alien movie, right? We actually call it the Exchange. It's kinda a hipster neighbourhood, no, REALLY a hipster neighbourhood. Anyway, it's really good for shopping and all that, and it is also very photogenic. Here are some pictures, all by my sister, Erica. Her blog is on my blogroll, and it is called No Fear Fashion. These pictures are on there too.

I Love The Village

So today my sister, my mom and I went shopping in Osborne Village, otherwise known as The Village, otherwise known as the best place in Winnipeg to shop! We went to quite a few stores. I found a nice coat that I really liked at Out of the Blue, but after careful inspection, we figured that it was too small and that it wouldn't fit next year. So we went to a few more stores. Then we crossed the street and went in to Silver Lotus. That's where I found it. The most gorgeous coat in my universe. Kind of a royal blue, ruffle-ish things on the bottom part, and just perfect. I bought it. I wore it out of the store and went to Wild Planet, a shop converted from an old church where you can find a LOT of band merch. I had my mind set on finding a Hives t-shirt today. And I did find one. It is amazing and it fits perfectly and I am in love with it. It's black with the Hives member's faces on it and above the faces it says: THE HIVES in lettering that looks like lights. Well that made my life. Wow, now that I look back, I realize that I have written a whole bunch about just two pieces of clothing. Yay! Well, you can find pictures below, and enjoy!! :)

I HAVE BRITISH PANTS NOW.

WELL HI THERE, AGAIN. Whoops, my caps-lock was on! Hehe. Anyways, yesterday we got a notice in the mail. For what, you may ask? Hmmm, let me think.... MY BRITISH PANTS. O. M. G. YAY!! Oh. I don't think I've told you about my pants yet... so sorry about that... I'll explain now. ASOS is a British clothing website where you can purchase clothing and get it shipped to pretty much anywhere in the world(except for Antarctica. Well actually, I have no idea if you can get it in Antarctica... hmm, I'll check on that.), and it's designer brands and if you go to the clearance area, like I did, then you can get some really nice stuff for pretty cheap. Well, I ordered pants, and my dear sister, who is now telling me to get off the computer, got a necklace with old-looking keys on it, a black tank top, and a Vero Moda dress with shoulder pads. Now I'll tell you about my pants. They are very nice. They are an olive green, or 'Khaki', and they are knitted. They're kind of like sweats, but nice. Anyways, I got them today, and they're a bit itchy, but not too bad. They're made of wool, so it makes sense. Well, it seems as though I'm rambling... I'll tell you about my day in a while after my sister is off of the computer! Okey dokey... BYE!!!
..... for now.
Love,
JULIANA <3

Brits are weird.

So today we had two tests. Ew. One in science and another in english and I really don't know how to label the parts of the heart, so that was kind of a problem in the science test. Anyways, I'm watching a pretty amazing British television series about cars and it is titled Top Gear. Top Gear is very very good, but Brits are weird people. Dagger. They were talking about that word. On a car show. I'm confused, and that's kinda my motto because I'm always confused. I'm also really excited for Friday because I may be going to Mina's house for a sleepover and to work on our teen fashion-ish magazine, but I'm not quite sure if I can go yet. On Saturday I went to her birthday party, which was a mani-pedi and sushi thing. I got pink fingernails, and tourquoise toes!! It was really fun, but Saskia got wasabi up her nose or something because she was dipping sushi in soy sauce and wasabi. It was super hilarious! I gave Mina the 80's movie, Ferris Bueller's Day Off and some lip gloss that smells like peaches. Yum!! Well, I should probably go, but I'll write you a LIST about nice hair.

People With Amazing Hair

1. SAM RICHMOND
2. Pelle Almqvist from The Hives
3. Emma Labossiere
4. Jessica Sheih
5. Alec Taco Hill
6. Tia Oberoi
7. MINA KWOCZYNSKA DRATWA, BECAUSE I AM A NICE PERSON, UNLIKE HER.
8. Sara Grimes
9. Saskia Clarke
10. Julia Dignazio

There, you're welcome. Those people weren't in order from nicest hair to worst, except for Sam Richmond.
