Back to Bloggin' with Swtichflops

Hi again!

So I was window shopping the other day and I saw something so intriguing that it made me think of my blog, and how much I missss it. So now I’m back and bloggin!

The thing that I found is called Switchflops. I have mixed ideas on them, but still think they are worth knowing about! Pretty much, the idea is that they have a ton of v-shaped designs that attach to their line of shoes to make them look like a completely new pair of shoes!


So, they have different basic styles to choose from, like wedges or kitten heels (which I approve of), or flip flops. Don’t get me wrong, everyone needs some basic sandals. But those are so affordable already that you probably don’t need to splurge on this product.

At first I thought that they might be cheap and tacky, but once I saw them live in action I realized that some of them look really great! A fun idea for matchy-matchy people.

Check out the website here and let me know what you think! It's interactive so you can choose your basic style and see what it looks like with the different straps attached. When I observed the product in-store (at the Plaid Giraffe, Whyte Ave, Edmonton, if you're interested), it seemed like the straps stay on quite secure.

Love,

Surfing with Style

So, anyone who stays updated on cocoperez.com already knows this, but I think it’s so fun that I have to repost it.
Surfing.Is.My.Dream. aaaand, now luxury brands like Chanel and Marc Jacobs are expanding their brand to appeal to other people who love it!
I’m curious to see how these sell… but I love the option of them!


It sort of makes sense considering that other sports equipment has been introduced and ended up with success. Shown below I have the ad featuring a Chanel rugby ball, and one of their snowboards underneath.


I looove this combo of fashion and sport, I need to get rich and hit the waves now time!

Accessorize Affordably

I’m an eBay addict and have been scoring big lately, so I wanna share with you my fav thing to buy online: jewelry (and accessories).

First, most of the time you don’t have to worry about sizes (rings excluded- those are tricky). Second, since there is such a plethora of sellers, you get a huge variety of styles. Third, on a site that is auction-style there is so much potential to get a great deal!

This works best if there is something specific that you are looking for. For example, I have wanted a cameo for soooo lonnngggg, but they’re difficult to find and can be somewhat expensive. The one posted below however, I got for 99 cents including shipping!! Actually, every item pictured here I received for $2.50 or less (including shipping), which is way better than what I could find in the store.



Top: Shows a 24 inch gold chain on the left, Namaste yoga pendant on the top, and cameo on the right.
Bottom: Peal headband on the left (so Ami), and large pearl earrings on the right.

Happy shopping, show me what you find! Caution: This gets extremely addicting.

Love, Ami G

Humanity Bracelet

My boyfriend recently bought me a bracelet because he thought it really suited me, and it’s my new fav accessory! Have you ever heard of Humanity for All?? It’s a charity-driven fashion line that aims to raise money for global understanding and consciousness for humanity. I love their designs as well as their message!!

My bracelet is a brown leather strap that wraps around about 5 times, and has silver sayings with studs in between and a funky clasp. Some of my fav messages are “Accept Diversity”, “Give Back”, “Seek Wisdom” and ”Make a Difference”. They come in a bunch of colors and styles, and make such good gifts! Good job boyfriend :)

Sale Sale Sale!


I've discovered a lovely little website, which I would certainly indulge in if I was working more than 8 hours a week haha. It has great sales on REAL gucci, prada, lv, and fendi bags, all of the best labels! They're not the newest stock or anything, mainly just the classic styles. But really, those are always in.

The good news: This is actually available in Canada!! I find too-good-to-be-true deals all the time, but they're always only for Americans :(

The great news: FREE shipping!! And that is Canada included! I have been wanting a Louis Vuitton backpack for way too long, and realllly, $192 isn't that bad for one... Should I get it?? Eek! More of my favs are shown below, and you can choose your favs for youself if you click here.

Tell me if you get something! Even though I'll be jealousss
