MIA?





It's been awhile since I've posted but rest assured I'm back and hopefully uploading daily!
So today I decided to play with texture by mixing a velvet dress and headband with my Rodarte inspired knit sweater and knit socks along with playing also with patent leather accessories.

A Sinister Kid








Today's inspiration for my outfit was "Sinister kid" by The Black Keys. Why? Probably cause my favorite line has been replaying itself in my head for the past couple hours. "Thats me, Thats me,The boy with the broken halo, thats me, thats me, the devil won't let me be". Also the song had a great classic rock feel which help inspire the vintage vibe of today's look!
So here I paired my favorite vintage print shirt with acid wash shorts for a fun olden look. To complete this I paired my vintage brown belt, my highest heels, and my favorite fur backpack to tie it everything together!

On the Move





And so another day of flying around from appointment to appointment began and i went everywhere from doctors, to dentists, to chiropractors, to hair dressers, to malls, and more!In order to do all this though, I had to make sure I was dressed warm for the bone chilling -13 degree weather, comfortable for running to each appointment, and chic in order to avoid looking like an eye sore on the beautiful streets of Yorkville in Toronto. 
I completed this challenge by throwing together a loose cashmere t-shirt with a roomy pair of harem pants to almost make it feel as if I were at home lounging on the couch with Ben&Jerry's chocolate ice cream. To keep it from feeling sloppy I added a velvet blazer, 1 inch heels, and warm socks to play with some color. But, the item that absolutely has saved my life throughout the duration of the day is my fur backpack! It's more comfortable to carry then a purse and can fir everything from my shopping bags, my camera, and all my daily essentials! I have no doubts that this soon will be the only bag I carry!

Beige Overload






This morning I put together this all beige outfit with a bit of an English, equestrian twist and though the 3 inch heels made me slip in slide in Canada's current icy temperatures, I stayed perfectly warm!
To liven up this solid look, I opted for a bright colorful mural in the music hallway at my high school.
