Gold + Fringe

Of course, I had to goof off a bit as usual :P I MADE THIS SCARF! Isn't it pretty? 

The first thing I love about this outfit are the colours. Blue and yellow are contrasting colours on the colour wheel and I thought that they complement each other nicely and stand out in this outfit. This kimono top is actually the first piece of clothing with fringe that I own. I've always been scared of fringe and deemed myself not hipster enough to wear it, but there isn't an insane amount of fringe on this top to make me afraid to try this trend out. Another thing I love about this kimono top is the gold lace floral detailing. It contrasts with the outrageous fringe providing a more feminine feel. I am wearing this pair of amazing wool socks on my feet… INVEST IN WOOL SOCKS EVERYONE! The winter here in Vancouver has been insanely cold lately and these socks have saved my feet! Also, sorry about the wet hair, I didn't have time to use a hair dryer before these pictures were taken!

On A Cold Winter Morning, The Sun Is Shining

This past January, Raincouver has not lived up to the stereotypical name. I woke up to the warm sun and decided to dress in an outfit that suited my bright mood aka bright prints, bright colours, and SPARKLY STUFF! Lately I have been really enjoying Ross Dress For Less, an American store that is known for bargains and the latest styles. The catch to this is that quite similar to thrifting, you must be willing to dig through racks and racks of clothes to find something that you absolutely love. But when you do… boy is it worth it. My cardigan and boots were both purchased at Ross and they were items that were complete steals! What can I say, so thankful no one stole them before I did! 

P.S. Nothing I'm wearing in these pictures was bought at full price. 

Thank you so much for reading! :)

In A Galaxy Far, Far Away

 Music is a huge passion of mine! Behind me are my piano and acoustic guitar :) 

Are these leggings awesome or what? Attention grabbing without being obnoxious, I saw these on sale and knew I had to have them. I decided to tone down the craziness of these leggings by adding a plain, solid coloured dress and cardigan. Galaxy leggings have a certain hipster element butt I personally wanted to make them more wearable and versatile and not so extravagant. It was also a cold, miserable rainy day outside so, these photos were taken and edited on my iPhone 5! 

Thanks so much for reading :) Happy 2014!

Feliz Navidad!

Meet my daddy! :) The tall genes gotta come from somewhere. 

Merry Christmas everyone! :) Hope you are all having a Merry Christmas! This outfit is something that I would wear often during the holiday season due to its comfort and warmth. It's also very simplistic and versatile. You could wear this to various different occasions! In these photos, this outfit was worn to a family dinner. 

Have a very Merry Christmas!

Holy Gold

Believe it or not, these awesome photos were shot at a skytrain station! Those cool art pieces behind me were done by an artist and are on public display for everyone to enjoy at the station! Go art! 

 HOLY GOLD! I am a complete and total sucker for gold, studs and leggings. Gold is classic, timeless, shiny and matches with my warm complexion well. Studs add some edge without being full on eye gouging spikes. Leggings are probably the most comfortable pants you can wear besides lulu yoga pants or sweats. Having all three of these beautiful elements combined into one pair of bottoms that I managed to snag for a mere $5 at a black friday sale was too good to be true. I also love how these gold studs are arranged in a cross- like formation. The long part of the cross goes down the side of my leg, and the perpendicular intersecting studs cross the tops of my thighs. I appreciate that these studs do not cheapen the look of the leggings but instead lend an edgy element to something so comfortable. 

 MERRY CHRISTMAS! Joy To The World.

Red Velvet

Just had to :) 

Red velvet to me is the symbolic fabric texture of Christmas. It's festive, cheery and easy to dress up or down. To be honest, I put absolutely zero thought into this outfit. I was running late so I literally looked into my closet and picked random items that I thought had a possibility of working well with my velvet skirt. I wanted this outfit to be put together, but not too formal so I wore my combat boots (that I wear with basically everything, no joke) and a slouchy blazer instead of a more structured one. Velvet is so festive, beautiful, versatile and worth investing in just for something a little different.   

Thanks so much for reading and Merry Christmas !! :)
