When you feel my heat, Look into my eyes

I didn't really feel like blogging on Friday so this is a delayed outfit post. First thing though, Shelley let me know what the Vintage Show TO blog posted a picture of us from the Vintage Clothing Show we went to last weekend. It's a pretty good shot of us. :)

I decided to go casual on Friday, or as casual as I can go.

T-shirt: Club Monaco (last worn here)
Jeans: Trapper Jane (last worn here)
Socks: from Durumi and Chocolate Shoes
Shoes: Fluevog Gateways | Brandenburg Light (last worn here)

Lacy socks! I was a little cold since the weather here has been topsy turvy. One day it will be 21C and then next it will be snowing.  It snowed yesterday and this is how I felt about it.
















I guess it shouldn't surprise me. Spring is always volatile in Canada. I remember in 1997 it snowed on my birthday, in the middle of May.

On Friday I picked up the keys to my new place. I still do not have a firm date for when my stuff will be arriving but it was loaded onto a truck on Friday. Here's hoping it's before Wednesday.

I went in yesterday and measured and tried to visualize my stuff in the space. Really it will just be shoes here, shoes there, shoes EVERYWHERE.

Here's some pictures of the space.

This is the "bedroom". It's really a bachelor but there's a movable wall that the previous tenant moved into a very awkward spot. I'll have the movers move it more closely to that pole.

This is the walk in closet. I might need to install another bar to accommodate my clothes.

This is the kitchen space as seen from the stairs that lead down into the apartment. The stove is tiny but I'm pretty sure I could cook a turkey in it. The window there makes it bright but I'm going to need a few more lamps than the 2 I have packed with my stuff. It's a gas stove too which I am luckily used to since my parents have one.

That's the movable wall. I think I'm going to put my TV in that little alcove part and move that wall back and get a couch for this space. I have a coffee table and a few storage unit thingies so I'm going to wait until all my stuff arrives before buying anything.

It's not much but it's mine.

Saucy Sunday

Happy Sunday all. I'm feeling much better though I still have quite a cough. It gets worse when I'm out walking around but despite that I ventured out to another new part of the city to meet Shelley for a Vintage Clothing Show near St. Clair St West. For the first time I took all 3 forms of transit - the bus, the subway, and the streetcar. Wheee!

Sadly I have no vintage clothes with me at the moment so I decided to go all hipster. (And I was having a pretty good hair moment when I took this photo. Which reminds me I need to find a hair stylist...gha!)

Blouse: Vero Moda (last worn here)
Dress: Eva Franco (last worn here)
Tights: Peek Brooklyn (I link because I love)
Shoes: Fluevog Gateways | Brandenburg Light (last worn here)

I wanted to wear my Fluevog Ayers heels with this outfit but I knew I'd probably be doing a lot of walking so I opted for the Brandenburg brogues. They don't look to bad with this outfit.

I took this photo before I put my shoes on. Minx! These are full tights but are designed to look like thigh highs. I may have hiked my skirt up a bit when I met Shelley at the Vintage show. SAUCY!

The flowers that bloom in the spring, Tra La!

Ok, I'm going to admit it. I'm sick. I'm pretty sure I have a rotten cold. You can see it on my face in this outfit photo. I stopped on my way home and bombed it with Pho and sriracha and now I'm drinking green tea. I hope it doesn't last long. Plus, who wants to call in sick on their 8th day at a new job?

T-shirt: American Apparel
Skirt: eShakti (last worn here)
Shoes: Fluevog Gateways | Brandenburg Light

Yeah yeah, another pair of shoes. Sue me. I'm sick. They're medicine.

I walked all the way to work in these and my feet are miraculously unharmed.

ERMAGHERD look at the JF and the crown on the toes. *swoon* I fall down with love for them.

I need to get red laces for them though.

Ok, I'm going to bed. At 6:30. Ugh!
