Hot day.

This morning when I woke up there was a cold breeze outside, so I dressed accordingly.
Well, it turns out it was a sunny, 26 degrees, hot day. I was melting in that outfit, since the tights are wool and UGGs are furry. (Yes I wear UGGs, love them, and can't really understand why they're so hated among fashion bloggers)
I should really start checking israelweather.co.il every morning.

ANYWAYS!

Tank: Pink Ice
Skirt: Forever21
Tights: My mom's
Fake UGGs: Nordstrom Rack
Scarf: The New Yorker
Necklace: Diva

Have an awesome week,
Love, Lotem.

Tagged.

For the first time, yay :)
I've been tagged by the very much lovliest Saray, from My Idea of Fashion.

5 things you can find in my bag:

1. An empty thermal cup. I take coffee with me to school every morning so it's always lying around in my bag.
2. The basics: wallet and keys.
3. Orbit Spearmint gum. Love it.
4. Eyeliner. I re-do my eye makeup like 3 times a day.
5. A cell phone. Jee, how original.

5 things you can find in my wallet:

1. Change.
2. My credit card. It's useless, really, I can only use it with ATMs cause I'm under 16.
3. Bus tickets. SAVE EARTH- TAKE A BUS.
4. תפילת הדרך. (The prayer of road? poor translation) it's a jewish blessing that is supposed to protect you wherever you go.
5. My studentID with a picture of me looking like a dumbass. Don't bother to click the picture haha.

5 favorite things in my room:
1. My laptop!
2. My closet, containing all my precious clothes.
3. My souvenir collection. Everywhere I go, I buy a souvenir and hang it on the wall.
4. My Drawer. It's The Drawer, meaning it's the drawer that contains all my un-important-but-not-to-be-dumped things.
5. My blanket. I love it. It makes me wanna soak in my bed for endless days and do nothing but cuddling inside it. It's a feather blanket, it's so nice and warm.

5 things I'm currently into:
1. Saying "awesome" on just about everything.
2. Drinking too much coffee.
3. Nike Dunk. Oh, how much I desire them. Gorgeous.
4. BOYS! But hey, I've been crazy for boys since the 1st grade.
5. Fashion! Clothes, runway shows, shopping, designers, and all the other fabulous things that revolve around it.

5 things about Saray, who tagged me:
1. She's an Israeli blogger, which already makes her like, extra awesome.
2. She has this thing for Betzalel Market in Tel Aviv, and she always finds great stuff. Everytime I go there I only find junk. Saray, teach me!
3. She's a friend of Carmel (that's a thing only she would understand ;) )
4. She has two adorable brothers, Omri Roie.
5. She can make make outfits work:




And I really have no idea who I wanna tag back, so...
If you're wearing pants right now, consider yourself tagged.
That sounds weird, I meant if you're wearing pants and not a skirt/dress.
Yes ok.

------------
Today was the Israeli Holocaust Memorial Day. I didn't think I should write about this in the blog, but as a (very proud) Jew, I figured the least I can to is to mention it.
RIP 6,000,000 Jewish People systematically murdered.
------------

That's a harsh finish for a post :P
Have a good weekend,
Love, Insomaniac Lotem.

US colors.

I don't know about you, but I was always fond with the matching of red and blue. They're contrast colors, but I still love how they look together.


Chanel, Marc by Marc Jacobs.
I love it how in the fashion show, Chanel had that US flag theme going on.

After seeing the pictures, I've had a craving for more navy blue items. I have plenty of red ones.
All the pictures are from Polyvore.com

I should really start going to sleep earlier. It's 1:30AM and I have a test tomorrow.

Love, Lotem.

Long post, just because I'm bored.

I haven't been updating the blog much in the past few days, having been a lazy-ass girl. I went to the beach yesterday, and I kind of regret I didn't take any pictures, because the beach in Israel is like a cult, it's awesome as hell.


Well Dressed Celebrities:


Ashlee's hooded sweater is AWESOME. It is a little weird and all, but I love it.
And Pete looks like a high school scene kid as usual.


I've always liked sequin dresses, and Gwyneth Platrow pulls it off pretty damn well.


I really didn't make up my mind about this one. It's sort of weird, yet it's so unique. (It's Eva Mendez, btw)


Nicole Kidman looks fabulous when pregnant. Then again, since she's my favorite actress, I doubt if I can say she doesn't look fabulous.


Ebay Cravings:


Nike Dunk Low. OMG I love them soo much!
I know, they're not very much classy but ugh, they're so damn beautiful. I saw them on Ebay and they're not very expensive, but I figured I might wait until I'm done with my current expenses and then order some Nike shoes.
If you want to see more awesome sneakers go on sneakerfreaker.com


This Chanel bag.
There are slim chances that it's authentic, since it's being sold at about $25, but then again the seller said that she got it from an estate sale in Beverly Hills, so you never know.
I think it's gorgeous. I'm probably not going to order it though...


Dior Glossy (!)
Ok, it's not like I can afford them any time soon. Unless I like, don't go out for a whole month and work twice as much as I do now. But hey, I can have dreams too.

BTW- If any of you want the URL for any of the items, let me know, I can send them to you.


Have a great weekend :)
Love, Lotem.

Colorsss.

I went shopping yesterday with my grandma (yay), and ended up with very colorful buys:
Horrible cell-phone quality, I don't have a camera here. Crap, I should really save up the money and get one of my own.


I got these to dresses. I'm not sure if I'm going to wear them with tights or not, they're really €short but I don't think they'd look as good with tights.
The left one is from Zara Kids, and is actually by far prettier than in the picture, and the left one is from TNT (an israeli store)


I got this bag from TNT too. It was really cheap and I liked the colors, so why not.
And the fact that my foot got in the frame really bothers me.


And finally I got this scarf and bangle from Top 10 (also an Israeli store).

Now I'm left broke.

Have a great day.
Love, Lotem.

The Carmel Forest

In the best of Israeli tradition, I went with my familia to a nice picnic in the Carmel forest, north Israel. We had a little barbeque and enjoyed the nice pastoral environment around. I love going to the nature every now and then, it gets you disconnected from reality for a bit. The food we had was delicious.
And even though it's not quite fashion related, here are some pictures:






This is the Lotem (Cistus, in English), the flower I am named after. It wasn't in its best of bloom, the color is usually more alive. I love it.


Jeez, what a myspace picture.

Have a great week,
Love, Cistus.

Yay, Passover!

I'm going to my grandparents' house for passover, and I might be staying there for a few more days.
It's a wonderful thing, my grandma is the BEST shopping companion.
So since she doesn't have an internet connection (you know, grandparents) I wouldn't be posting here for a few days.
That unless I can sort of hack my way to some neighbor's wireless :)

BTW,
I gave the block a new title and a new banner thingy.
And along with the new name comes a new URL.
I would really appreciate it if the people that have linked me could change the name and the URL :) thank you!

Have a great week,
וחג שמח
Love, lotem
