RuckSack Backpacks

Here is the second trend on my Spring+Summer 2012 trends list: RUCKSACK BAGS! I am too excited to buy one. These are perfect for when your traveling, sleeping over a friends house or maybe out & about in the city. Their stylish & they seem easy to carry. I just adore the patterns that some of them come in! I love the solid colored ones too. If you're tired of your regular old handbag, go for one of these. They'll come in handy.

Where to buy: I would try googling these bags! I can't say these are inexpensive but the cheapest I've seen is from at least $35! but they run pretty pricey, so do your search well.

1) Asos Floral Rucksack - $60 (SOLD OUT)

3)Langdale Backpack by JackWills - $79.50

what's in my bag

[inspired by LemonParfait!] so every girl has their little essentials in their bag & well these are mine! <3 My bag is from Forever21. An MCM Wallet that was given to me as a gift. My favorite fragrance from BBW - Into The Wild! My Nook Tablet, My little Pink Chiffon lotion from BBW, which cost me a $1!!! Cocoa Creme Liplicious lipgloss & my cell phone (which I really dislike lol! but I shouldn't complain because my mommy pays my bill!)

Burberry Wellington boots

These will be next purchase in the next few weeks! I was browsing one of my splurge shops I love & I came across these Burberry Weather boots. Winter is about to be over but these will be great for the up-coming Spring showers! What got my attention was the big zipper on the back of the boot. They're simple, cute & you can wear them with almost anything! Retail price is $350.00. Depending on where you live, sales tax might be a great deal or it might not be lol! I put my moms address in NY & sales tax is $31!!! while I put the address where I live in NJ & it's $.70! So make sure your sales tax isn't like $30+! I would go to the Burberry store to see just how they fit but i'm sure they'll be comfortable. they also have them in a black/grey plaid pattern.

What Would I Wear: I would definitely wear my fave skinnies, a simple tee & a trench coat! Keep it cute & stylish. That's the way to go ladies! 

New Girl in Town!

Welcome to a new blog by me, Couture! I go by many names (people just can't seem to call me by Michelle anymore lol)! You CAN call me Michelle or you can call me Melly ;) I hope to give you what others can't always give you & that's my undivided attention! I also hope for you guys to really look into the world through my "eyes". Meaning, whatever I post, you can get a hint of how I view life.

I intend to post a lot about fashion, beauty & style. I don't want to be your average fashion blog that has posts of my style. This blog will portray style of other people. Whether I've styled them or not. Oh, I forgot to mention, I am an aspiring Wardrobe Stylist. I would like to one day work backstage at NYFW doing what I love to do best.

There's not much to say about me. I'm 22. I reside in NJ but I'm from Brooklyn, NY! Brooklyn will forever be my home & I hope to return back there soon. I am obsessed with the color Pink. I am going to school for Nursing. I don't like to watch TV too much, but if I am, you will catch me watching some sort of reality tv show or CSI: Miami. I love to cook but I more so love to eat! Apple juice is my go to drink & I adore anything chocolate. & that's about it for now.
