Happy birthday to me!

So we went for a marathon shopping session.

Even for me - we were in Holt Renfrew for what felt like ages.  But it's hard to resist when there is a Summer Sale with amazing prices on tons of clothes I've been admiring for a long time.  But...it was not to be.  I had to fall in love with clothing that was regular priced.  Sigh!

So, armed with a big ol' pink Holt Renfrew gift card, and the delicious flavoured water they give out to customers, I bought a beautiful stone-coloured bag (Large Hamilton Bag $395) from Michael Kors that will look beautiful for the summer and beyond...

I originally wanted to also buy a sheath as well for an upcoming work trip to New York, but then I thought, why wouldn't I just buy some more clothes in the shopping capital of the world?  But I found a great cotton "canvas" Judith and Charles dress ($395) that could be both work day and weekend for the summer.  I lurrvve it and can't wait to wear it.

On another note, I decided to get a manicure with a twist!  Since I'll be away for work and quite busy in the next week or so I decided to get the CND Shellac manicure.  It feels great so far, it should last without chipping for two weeks and I'm really happy with the "Bubble Bath" light pink colour.  It was slightly more than a regular manicure but my nails are so thin I think it'll help with the upkeep.

Also, I got this lovely cuff from Tiffany & Co. from my boyfriend (Elsa Peretti Bone Cuff).  He's one of those guys that mentally files away things I say I like during the year.  The piece is absolutely gorgeous...a little bit tough but stunning in its curves. 

Also, can't wait to check out the new Milly NY store (900 Madison Avenue) when I'm in New York next week!   Milly, Kate Spade, Reiss are all high, high, high on my list for great shopping destinations when I visit!
