SHE GIVES GOOD HAT
December 26th, 2009 - 50 Comments »
Ahhh, my favorite faux fur coat……how I love thee. People still don’t believe me when I tell them that I got it from Urban Behavior for like 60 bucks! Bwahaha. How is everyone doing? Did you get everything that you wanted for Christmas? I certainly was very generous to myself this holiday season. First I cleaned out the Rodarte x Target collection online, then I got those kick ass Mendel boots from BCBG for 50% off.
The fact that I have left my job and will be self employed starting January 2010 is still settling in….marinating as you might put it. The excitement stage is long gone…and now I’m starting to get antsy and a little scared about how I’m going to make it all happen. As I was telling my friend Michael on my last day in the office, this is the kinda shit that makes us human. New experiences, new challenges, and unforeseen situations….and how we will learn to react to them is what life is all about! Eagerly awaiting to get it all started! In the meantime I’m going to savor probably the last few opportunities I’ll get to sit around and eat ice cream straight outta the tub 
CLASSY.
Don’t forget to follow the blog on BLOGLOVIN and twitter @thehautepursuit Thanks lovelies!

Love as always!
Uggh I’m so jealous that you’re getting the BCBG Mendel boots! I went down to Pacific Center today and they didn’t have my size
ah you have the most amazing collection of fur coats!
omg!!!! i love urban behaviour’s set of fur items!!! i wanted their fur vest so bad, but it got sold out on the day that i wanted to buy them!
Love Urban Behaviour!
When I went there.. everything had sold out (well the fur stuff that is) You look stunning <3
wow!! love the outfit! and the H&M boots look so cool and vintagey!!!
great outfit ! your fur coat looks so great ! I love your hat too and your shoes are stunning !!
get this, i quit my job on dec. 15!!!!
we should definitely get together for a martini since we both have all the time in the world now!
are those boots really from h&m? so cute!
Gorgeous pictures!
I like your boots. Please wear them to brunch tomorrow.
oh darling!!! wow…you’re ALWAYS wooonderfull!!!!! You’re fur is fantastic…you’re boots to…and your purse…wow!!! favolous photos…FAVOLOUS YOU!!!! Thanks lovely for your comment
You can’t go wrong with a leopard print faux fur coat, that coat was made for you. I remember seeing those boots at H&M, but def couldn’t pull them off as well as you do. Also saw the Mendel boots you’ve been blogging about at BCBG – very you! Can’t wait to see you rock them
hey honey, thanks for commenting that cute on my blog. I just adore that jacket. it suits you damn good. I also like those heels, aren’t they by H&M? I think I tried them once, but unfortunately I didn’t buy them… what a pitty, they look gorgeous!
Santa didn’t give me EVERYTHING on my list, but I did get quite a few items I wanted.
But the best present came from the boyfriend, who in his fit of insanity decided that I deserved a day of total and utter bliss; Neatly wrapped under the tree was a gift certificate for a complete day at the spa. Six hours of treatments including lunch.
And I did splurge a bit on myself as well. My cousin in the UK did me a huge favor and got me the Marc Jacobs Stam bag after I transferred money for it. (Was having a hard time finding a online store that would ship the real deal to Norway…)
You look great as always. Nice to see you’re recovered from the cold.
Also, you’re lucky it apparently doesn’t get as freezing cold as it does here – I can’t venture outside unless I pack on two layers of wool..
Gorgeous outfit. Love the blog. xx
I like what you said about new experiences, new challenges, and unforeseen situations making us human. I think that maybe it doesn’t make us human, but it certainly makes us better ones.
He lovely, you cracked me up this morning with your post title, i like it haha
Gorgeous as ever, loving the faux fur coat, it’s kind of, well , perfect.
Always a pleasure coming to your blog.
Holidays are good, but a lot of work!

the boots are awesome!! im jealous – the rodarte section was cleanedddd out when i stopped by target that day =(
I knew I recognized that coat from SOMEWHERE, haha! I have worked at UB for a while now.. sorry to bring you the sad news but I believe the coat has been marked down to $30 or somewhere around there. I’ve had a lot of customers laugh at it and try it on as a joke, but you m’dear suit it perfectly! it looks great on you, (:
You have perfect style and an amazing wardrobe! Where did you get your hat?
I love following your blog and now i have my own if you’d like to check it out norockwithoutplastic.blogspot.com

I kinda envy you the courage it took to leave your job and decide to do your own thing. I’ve been thinking about doing that a lot recently… whatever you’re up to, I have a feeling you’ll do well. wish you great success!
I am soooo jealous over your faux fur coat collection!
“New experiences, new challenges, and unforeseen situations….and how we will learn to react to them is what life is all about!”
So true! But self-employment seems really scary to me, but I’m sure it will work out really well for you. ;]
Beautiful pics! The hat and coat are absolutely gorgeous. xoxo
Hey girl! Thanks for your comment on my blog
My mission: impossible is basically a shopping ban. No shopping for clothes/shoes/accessories for 40 days and nights straight. The twist is to create new outfits within my current wardrobe hence the countdown of days and outfit posts. I started Nov 1st and finished Dec 10th; however, I intended to post a new outfit every day but as you know, Vancouver weather doesn’t exactly permit that nor does it make it easy to take photos outdoors every single day. So I’ve done my time but I’m trying to play catch up with the outfits. It was fun, definitely challenging but it made me look at my wardrobe in a whole other way than before.
Looking stunning as always!
Hey darling!
You have an amazing style, just have to love it
Haha Glad to see that you have the same opinion as me concerning A. Mcqueens collection. It is DIVINE. Have to say though that even if the shoes are Cool they look SOO uncomfortable. But a girl has to do what a girl has to do when it comes to fashion! HAHA
XOXO
hi!!! i just read your comment on my blog!!

from méxico with love!
