Things I need for my college apartment.

As a broke college student, ikea will be my new bff over the summer when I prepare to move into my new apartment for my senior year (woot woot!) I live in an apartment right now so I already have a lot of stuff, but one of my roommates supplied most of the dinnerware and she will not be living with me next year (sadface) so stuff must be replaced :(

1. 18 piece DINERA dinnerware set $20
2. IDEALISK mesh tea infuser $2 (for those late nights before exams and the mornings of when I feel like shit.)
3. Chopping boards! $2
4. SVALKA 6 pack white wine glasses $5 (i'll finally be old enough to drown my sorrows in a bottle of reisling)

Other thoughts: toasters, tupperware, cast iron skillets, cute ice cube trays, glass tumblers

Smokey Cat Eye (Refinery 29)

I love this winged smokey eye from Derek Lam's Fall 2011 show! dying to try! especially since one of the models wearing it was asian. I definitely feel that cool eye makeup options from the runway are limited if you're asian. :(

Girly Cute Laptop Sleeves!

I recently got a new laptop (thanks big bro!) for Christmas and I'm very excited because it's thinner, lighter, and has more battery life than my old laptop. I also realize that my old laptop (only 2.5 years old actually!) went through a lot of pain & suffering probably since it had to travel with me sometimes without a laptop sleeve. I'm determined to right this wrong with my new laptop, so ofcourse I need a cute laptop case that isn't too expensive.

1. 13" Black and White Fleur Carrying Case Sleeve $15.50 from amazon (yay free amazon prime for students!)
2. Diane Von Furstenberg Laptop Case $135 from Neiman Marcus
3. 13" Hello Kitty I Love Nerds Laptop Case $36 from amazon, can also be found at karmaloop
4. Marc by Marc Jacobs Pretty Nylon Computer Sleeve $78 from Shopbop
5. Mulberry Bayswater patent-leather laptop case ( I WISH I WISH I WISH ) $650 from Net-a-porter
