S'up yo?! How's it goin? once again I'm tardy! Let's do this!

August 8

Dress: Thrifted (last worn here)
Booties: Fluevog Bellevues | Ida Clark (last worn here)

I wasn't entirely sure about this shoe choice but they were quite popular at work so I guess they were ok.

This dress is really more of a winter dress since it has velvety fabric but I've kind of been in a black mood.
































July 9

On Friday I went a little casual. More casual than I usually do.

Top and skirt: Melissa Bolduc from Fresh Collective (last worn here)
Shoes: Hush Puppies

Maybe I should have worn the stripey booties with this?

I had been wearing my bronze Fluevogs but I changed into these just before I remembered to take my picture. Whoops.


























August 12

And today was another blackish day.

Dress: americanretro (last worn here)
Shoes: Fluevog Half Truths | Tanya

New shoooooes! On Friday I stopped at Fluevog on my way home intending to just pet the new velvety boots (the blue, so gorgeous) and of course I ended up trying on a few pairs. Surprisingly, I loved these the most.

I've said this before but I'm a sucker for straps and buckles.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised that I liked these so much. They are my dream shoe from the 1980s that I never would have been allowed to have. Pointy toe? check. Straps? check. Buckles? check. Gothy? check check.

I'm not usually a kitten heel fan but these are delightful!

and boom! New post. I'm outta here.

More red, black, and white...

Sweater: Pretty Things Boutique
Tunic: americanretro (from Crimson and Clover)
Skirt: Knit by me
Shoes: Hush Puppies by Anna Sui (from John David Shoes)

I'm getting a lot of wear out of this tunic. It's probably my favourite item in my wardrobe right now (if you don't count shoes). I do seem to be wearing a lot of neutral colours lately. Probably because I'm weary of this coldish weather. See I am still wearing tights!

A local fashion blog (Fashionable People, Questionable Things) drew my attention to the fact that these shoes were available for purchase in my very own city. On Saturday I went to just "look" at them. You can't imagine my surprise when I discovered that I had brought them home with me. SURPRISE!

Stripey, spectatory goodness.

Today is also the beginning of Atlantic Fashion Week (which really only takes place on Thursday and Friday). I hope to get to the events and take a few photos to share on the blog.

Here's my cats - Dougal and Merlin - sharing a chair. They used to do this a lot when they were still kittens but lately they've been fighting more than cuddling. I had to capture this while it was happening.
