This was my first hiking trip of the season. I took it easy as I shook myself from my winter hibernation and prowled the woods in search of the summer sun. I think I found the spring version, but you take what you can get. Of course this arduous journey had to be comfortable so…
Voluminous: Gathered Sleeve Button-Up Blouse and White Jeans
I love large sleeves in my tops and dresses. It doesn’t matter whether they’re gathered or loose and flared, I love them all. Something about the look feels a bit medieval to me and as a lover of high fantasy, this is a time period that I romanticize quite a bit in my head. I…
Cutouts, but Not: Mesh Insets Sweatshirt, Jeans and Combat Boots
I love cutouts in my clothing and think that a bit of skin can be a really fun way to spice up an otherwise simple piece of clothing. Nothing can really be simpler than a hooded sweatshirt so it’s a good thing that it has a version of this fun element. This is the mesh…
Sakura: Peach Sweater, White Vest and Jeans
Toronto does not provide the best climate for Sakura trees. In 1959, 2000 of these beautiful trees were presented as gifts to the city on behalf of Tokyo, Japan. Since then, they have continued to plant additional trees. The blossoms are very delicate and while they bloom for up to two weeks, the cold climate…

Six Months: Faux Fur Vest, Crushed Velvet Top, Jeans and Brown Boots
Oh boy, I got so caught up in other things, I completely missed the six month anniversary of this blog a few weeks back. I can’t believe that it’s already been six months. To everyone who’s reading this, I can’t tell you how much it means to me that you’re all here. It makes my…
Coming Alive: White Crochet Sweater, White Jeans, Turtleneck, Statement Necklace and Tall Boots
This day marked the first time in a long time that I was able to walk around without some sort of jacket or warm vest outside. It was a perfect April day, a bit chilly but beautiful non-the-less. Unfortunately it snowed the day after, but you take what you can get and it was still…
Comfy Vibes: Fuzzy Blue Cowl Neck Sweater, Pink Teddy Coat, Jeans and Black Boots
I’m writing this right after writing an exam. It was an operating systems course and, while really interesting, I just did not click with the way it was taught. Oh well, one can’t have everything. I’m really glad I have the knowledge I gained from it though. Does anyone else sometimes feel or felt like…
