Robyn Fail

I am a failure. A customer at work today told me to suck his dick. What should I have done? Told him where to go. Instead my jaw dropped, and I started blinking like I had dust in my eye. As soon as he was gone I fled to the washroom and cried cuz it's been one of those days. Now, I am thinking that I am way too emotional and need to find some way to express my emotion without tears.

Naturally, my first impulse was violence. Now, seeing as how that is generally frowned upon in our society, I am going to modify it. Archery! My boyfriend took me and it was so much fun. So I am going to hone my craft. Then, next time some wise-ass decides to be a douche, BAM!!!!! Arrow through the cornea! WHAT NOW BIATCH?!?!?!?!?!?! 

PS... today I am decided upon education. 

Not so Mid Life Crisis

Holy Moses folks, life is crazy. I've had a not so mid-life crisis. Not like "who am I, what am I doing here?" but more like "wtf is this bs that I must go through every day, do I choose nursing or education, and why am I always nauseated?" It isn't really that crazy I spose. For the record, I have chosen nursing for now. Anyway, my whole mental battle has been made worse by my intense/stupid/angering/hectic job, my own expectations for the summer, and my obsessive worrying about day to day events. Anyways, I am back, with a mostly solid head on my shoulders and am ready to bestow my opinions and stories upon you once again.

So, for those of you who, like me, waited with bated breath for the Resort Chanel show, you were prolly not let down. I know I wasn't. I was head over heels in  love. One of my favourite Chanel lines to date. First of all, we saw a sort of new color palette. Although the last resort collection also used pastel colors, they were alot more vivid. They also consisted more of yellows and pinks, where this time round we're seeing more washed out violets and aquas and light fuschias which were just so stunning.

I also liked that despite an ever evolving "in look" Mr. Lagerfeld presented us with some traditional, classicly cut pieces like the tweed suit. It is a trademark Chanel item, and yet it is current and so chic; updated with the new colors, and the updated accessories.

On the opposite side of that coin, we were presented with some new looks from Chanel; we saw alot more denim in this line than most others. It showed up in vests, jackets, bottoms, and dresses. Although it is a fabric rarely used by Lagerfeld, he made it classicly Chanel also.

This last piece was another one of my favourites. It is just so adorable. A little retro, a little new, alot stylish, and as always, pushing the bill. I think it sort of summarized everything I loved about this show and Chanel in general.

I sort of feel like the tides are shifting ever so slightly in the design house. Just the way this line and the last few have come out. I feel like something is changing a little bit. I'm excited to see what lies ahead but nervous too. I had the weirdest thought the other day; what if the changed feeling in the last few lines is because Lagerfeld has a new protege? While most of our beloved designers have lead healthy long lives, Lagerfeld is no longer a 40-something. What will happen when he's gone? There is a nice panicky tid bit for you. I know that one has spooked me a great deal.

Anyway, have a great Victoria Day weekend!



Long Weeks

Hi guys! I am sorry I have not blooged in forever. It was exams, then car issues, then I had to put my dog down which was super hard. Anyway, I am back and ready to go. I am done school for the summer, so hopefully I should get a lot of blogging done. This post will be short as I am at work and don't have my awsome pics to blog on. But I will ask you to review Rihanna's style choices the past few months and ask yourself this question; "WTF?!?!"  That is all for now.

An Ode to Bieber

An Ode to Bieber

Oh Justin Bieber I hate you

Your songs, they are so bad.

The only thing even mildly comparable,

Is walking naked into grad.

Your face, your hair, your clothes,

You're such an ugly girl.

Your voice, your shoes, your body,

You make me want to hurl.

You think you're so amazing,

You think you call the shots.

In fact you're just a dummy,

The only thing you deserve is snot.

Jus because you're famous,

Is not the reason I'm hating.

Indeed your status in this world,

Is the only thing in which you have rating.

There are so many instruments,

In which with talent you play.

Instead you shimmy and dance around,

And now are seen as gay. 

Oh Justin, of course you're from Canada,

Us northerners have no more hope.

You have forever tarnished our name,

Why are you such a dope?

With one last word I will end this poem,

For popular you are indeed.

However I think its better for everyone,

If you would disappear on a noble steed. 

Fashion Tips for Students

Here are my be all end all (LOL) tips about makeup, hair, and clothing for a student!!

1. If you`re going to wear heels (of any style), DO NOT use a backpack. You will be hanged.

2. In relation to 1, heels in general are way too high maintenance at school. Wear flats or sneakers!

3. As with any other situation, never ever ... EVER wear crocs.

4. Sweats are unacceptable unless you are working out or a Phys Ed. student.

5. Stains of any kind on a garment are wholly unacceptable.

6. No one ever went wrong wearing jeans.

7. Make sure your clothes fit. Not too tight, too big, too short, or too long.

8. Don`t bleed a dead animal; if your clothing is past its prime, garbage it.

9. Cutesy bags are just that; cutesy bags. When it comes to carrying around books, beverages, etc., make sure you have a reinforced bag.

10. Pay attention to length. Make sure your skirts and shorts aren`t too short. Noone wants to see your underpants.

11. Back-combing is done. NO one wants to see your over-dyed, too fried hair all up like a bird`s nest. YUCK. GO with your natural hair, or a low maintenance style that will last ya through the day

12. School is crazy, but it is no circus; low key makeup is nice. Less is more! The days get stressful and its sometimes nice to rub your eyes without a follow up trip to the powder room to tidy it up. 

Beauty Must Haves

So, I know I don't post like any pictures of my clothes or makeup or stuff, but Ima tell ya some of my favourites. This is the stuff I use every single day. It always makes me look cute even on my worst days!

This is my favourite Lancome blush in Subtil. It is so so gorgeous. It always gives my cheeks the pick me up I need when I first wake up.

Lancome eyeliner! In Brown Coffee!! Get one!!! It will change your life. Honestly it will. It goes on so so smooth and stays on flawlessly all day. It comes off really nicely too. You don`t have to clean it all out of your lashes.

This is my heavy hitter. No amount of crcazy weather affects me as long as I carry this around. I also put it under my lipstick and it makes it last longer. So necessary. Perfect when you`re sick too; jus dab a bit under your nose and it makes sure ya don`t chap up.

This is my all time favourite mascara. The formula is amazing. I prefer it to both my Lancome Definicils and my Diorshow. I kid you not. It is so fantastic.

This is my trusty busty Mac eyeshadow in Rice Paper. I brush it over the lid and into the corners, and it brightens me up.

My final team member! Bobbi Brown matte lipstick in Sandwash Pink. So so beautiful. Perfect color for me. So good.



Colton Dixon

Alright, so I am embarrassed to admit this, but I am an American Idol fan. My absolute fav this season is Colton Dixon.

No, it's not his looks that make me dig him, its his voice. He is absolutely amazing. He sounds so good and gives me a sort of Jon Foreman Matt Nathanson-esque vibe. Regardless, I am a mondo fan. He did Billy Joel's "Piano Man" and I was absolutely shocked with how awsome it was. Here is a link! Enjoy!
