School...

Ahhh, I'm so sorry. I haven't posted in forever. My goodness, I'm terrible. I just haven't had the time, with all the black to school shopping and the preparation for (drumroll, please) highschool.

Yes, that's right, I am going back to school on tuesday (that's in TWO DAYS if you didn't already pick up on that :P). On one hand, I'd rather not have the summer end. But it is a chance to reinvent myself in terms of style. New school, new clothes. I'll be going for a slightly more simplistic look this year. I've picked up a few pairs of skinny jeans and tons of graphic t-shirts. I'm loving clean, simple bangles as accessories. And I've got some striped cardigans and v-neck sweaters that'll contrast well. I guess you could say I'm going for the punk-meets-prep kind of look. BUT I do still love anything babydoll/trapeez. Ahh, my style is ever-changing... in a good way.

My payless wishlist.




I love payless. The flats are basic for $16.99 and the boots are absolutely amazing for $24.99. I'll be hitting a payless ASAP.
On another note, I'm so sorry that I haven't been posting. I've been busy with soccer and my teenvogue addiction. ;) But, I promise to try to post more often.

New York, baby!


Leaving for New York City tomorrow!!! As you may have guessed, I am very excited. I'm gonna hit 5th avenue and get myself a really nice bag. I've been wanting one for a while now and I have about $280 to spend (although, I probably won't spend THAT much). I'm thinking about the Marc Jacobs store. I'll probably look in just about every store, though. I love this Chloe bag, but it might be a little 'of the moment' and I want the one I buy to be classic and timeless (if I'm going to spend that much money on it). I'd like it better in a tan colour, anyway.

Fashion Photography is Love.







If ever I am in need of fashion inspiration, all I need to do is look at pictures like these. Absolutely beautiful, am I right?

I'm back...

Yep, last minute road trip. I went to a theme park, but unfortunately, I didn't get to do any shopping.

SO, time for a style report. At the theme park I went to, I saw tons of girls in skinnies and ballet flats. I also saw a lot of girls in Abercrombie, but what else is new? I also saw a girl in a very odd bright yellow sweatshirt with black and white stripes at the wrists and the waist. It said "I am the dream". But, at least she tried something different. In the sense of fashion, the people there lacked originality. I don't think I saw one person and thought, "Wow, they have style." Why is that so rare? Even where I live, I rarely see someone and think 'fashion'. Now, don't get me wrong. I definetly have my off days (like today), when I'll just throw on a t-shirt and shorts, but there's got to be some people who dress fashionably everyday. Right?

Oh, Canada.



Today's outfit is simple. I was handed a black t shirt that says 'Canada, Old Navy'. As you may have guessed, it is Canada day and I am Canadian. Anyway, I decided to pair it with a cropped grey cardigan left unbuttoned, classic bue skinnies (a bit baggy), and denim flats with bows on them. My style changes from day to day, sometimes depending on my mood. Today, however, I didn't have much of a choice. I went for a bit of a grunge/oversized t-shirt look. But, the flats with the little bows contrast the black t-shirt because they are somewhat cutesy. There's a better picture of the shoes at the top.
