Feeling the Sun

After a hard day of work and a venti coffee to fuel the day (its Friday so I treat myself to Starbs ;) J and I went thrifting and took some photos for the blog…This really is something we both bond over, he loves photography and I love fashion and putting together a shoot/outfit so we really do make a great team….I am lucky to have such a supportive and creative friend and lover (ok enough ranting about love…haha). I will be doing a post on what I look for when I thrift as per many of your requests soon …hopefully on the weekend so look out for that =)

lately I have also been giving my studded booties a lot more love…they have been super neglected…well….off to go watch a movie….and thanks to L (thanks for emailing me!) I'm going out to buy “"Bringing home the Birkin” book as a fun read ….let me know if you guys have any great books to recommend!

Lately

Queen St: My favourite place to shop come summer time…..I love the little “people” hanging off the wall of the store…Just outside of Aritzia on Queen ….J took some paparazzi shots of Anne and I…haha…I will be doing a post of my fave places to shop soon and how to spot out deals, what to buy and what not to buy when thrifting ….

Let me know if you guys have any post suggestions or things you want me to talk about ;) …..also, some of you commented about my diet in the previous post….and to be honest, I just walk around a lot…dont have a car and try to eat healthy…..the key word is “try” …oh and I drink a lot of coffee….;P….haha

Love the ones who love you back

Today was a nice day that J and I spent with our friends Anne and Frank….we went around downtown looking for the perfect ice cream spot … we relaxed, laughed and ate….the perfect day off…we passed by Queen St and I just remembered why I love downtown so much…all the perfect vintage shops (just a little overpriced most of the time…but hey, you have to pay for perfectly selected items that are vintage and in your size! the hardest part which is searching is done for you..)

Loving the Rain

I really love the rain, especially when I get to be all warm and cozy indoors …however, today I got caught in the rain while going to my doctors appointment downtown which was not too fun considering I use public transit…but, I was able to appreciate it the minute I got home after a nice bubble bath (I love listening to the sound of the rain falling against the window)….I picked up a few things with some birthday money (treated myself :P) while I was downtown after my visit at Aritzia since they are having a sale….I got a cool tie dye high waist skirt by my fave brand Wilfred, a crop top by Talulah, cheap monday jeans and a lace bra which I love (going to wear this a lot under loose tanks and tees)….well, im off to continue my reading and spend some time with the little bro…he is leaving soon….

New Blog Layout

I think I will be sticking with this new layout….and as many of you mentioned in the comments, it is easier on the eyes!…J  just got a new lens so we will playing around with that very soon….hopefully have some new outfit posts for you guys tomorrow…its my day off so I booked a docs appointment and then will probably be running errands with my little man, aka, my little brother who will be leaving on vacation soon for 2 months…I will admit, I'm going to miss him….lately, I have been reading a lot…I have had a lot more time to do some leisure reading and have been really engrossed by Meyers books….aka…Twilight ;)…I guess it really is a love it or hate it thing …..I just have to buy the last book to complete my collection …talk to you guys tomorrow!

The Humber River

Hey dudes! so today is party day....well my belated birthday party.....I got my nails all prepped up as you can see ( actually..its hard to see in the pic ..haha) with a bright neon pink colour and did the designs on my nails myself (the white, black and silver bottles which have a very fine tip brush for precision)...no need to go to a nail salon :P....plus its fun to sit outside and do them yourself of with your girlfriends! They were having a sale at Shoppers Drug Mart on a lot of the Quo nail products so I got a few things....J and I passed by the humber river...might go on a little pic-nic tomorrow....we love passing by parks...so beautiful....we really are lucky to live in such a beautiful city ;)

Let me know what you guys think of this white background....I also need a new header...the old one is not sized right for this layout....might go back to the black layout...we'll see...just testing it for now!

Dont want to be any body else but me...

It was crazy hot today thus making this outfit im wearing was totally inapproriate for the massive heat wave we faced here in Toronto ....I love these shorts though because they are pretty much the only shorts I can get away with wearing to work while maintaining a business casual look....obviously not with the top im wearing but I like to pair it with a white button down ...I passed by Value Village again because of course, its wednesday so 20% off for students...I picked up a hot black vintage velvet bandage dress ...I LOVE it...just have to wait for the heat to die down to wear it ....
This weekend I need to go through my closet...I will probably be selling many items so I can clear out the old and make room for the new ..and by new, I mean the many new thrifted peices....:P
Wishing you all an awesome mid-week....
