How does it happen, does it fly through the air

Quick early post because I'm on my way to the airport to fly to Winnipeg, which is almost exactly the middle of Canada. I have a stop over in Toronto but not long enough to do anything other than hangout in the airport.

Here's my flying outfit.
Blouse: from Crimson and Clover consignment
Cami: Envy (local store)
Skirt: Smoking Lily Lilibet skirt (last seen here)
Leggings: Hue
Shoes: Fluevog Adrian | Alli

Lots of layers so if I get too warm I can adjust things and I have a cardigan to throw on if I get cold.

No yoga pant plane wear for me. =)

Days of Grey


Yes, it was cold enough today for a turtleneck sweater!


Top: unknown brand
Corset: Spaks Mannsspjarir from Reykjavik
Skirt: Smoking Lily (worn here)
Shoes: Fluevog Adrian | Alli (worn here)

I had an entirely different outfit planned for today which included this corset top but this was a last minute fill in outfit. It was just too cold for my original idea. Hopefully I'll get to wear it soon.

I love this corset top and everything that was in the Spaks store in Reykjavik. Their designs are so unique and the clothes are so well made.  I wish I'd been able to buy more.

I don't like this shirt layered underneath the corset though. In fact, this shirt is going to leave my wardrobe. I don't like how hippy it makes me look so "buh-bye" shirt!













This corset would look so much better without that messy looking peplum sticking out the bottom (and with a less wrinkly skirt).
Tonight at dinner, my friend told me that she's only ever been to 5 concerts in her life so I tried to list all the concerts I'd been too. Here's what I came up with:

James Taylor - 1980ish (with my parents)
Images in Vogue - 1986ish (at my high school)
Erasure - 1989 in Toronto
Sloan and The Pursuit of Happiness - 1991 (at university)
The Barenaked Ladies - 1991 (at university)
Chris Isaak - 3 times between 1992-1994
Morrissey - 1992 at Canada's Wonderland
Skinny Puppy - 1993 in Toronto
Molson Park music concerts - 1993, 1994
Depeche Mode - 1994 at Canada's Wonderland
The Tragically Hip - 1995 in Harrisburg, PA
Lloyd Cole - 1995 in Toronto
The Stone Roses - 1995 in Toronto
The Tragically Hip - 1998 in Halifax
Lloyd Cole - 2001 in Boston
The Tragically Hip - 2003 in Halifax
The White Stripes - 2007 in Halifax
The Pixies - 2011 in Halifax
Arcade Fire - 2011 in Halifax
Lloyd Cole - 2011 in Halifax
Duran Duran (with Neon Trees) - 2011 in Montreal

Kind of a weird mix of bands and singers. I'm going to see Duran Duran again in August/September - whoot!
