Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday

Another week is winding down. For the last week I've been craving spaghetti and meatballs so tonight guess what I had for supper? Om nom nom.

Here's the outfits from the last 3 days. I can't believe July is almost over.

July 23

Dress: Meg (last worn July 3)
Shoes: Fluevog Hopefuls | Assured (on sale!)

Yup, this is still my favourite dress. Bright colour, nice cut, pockets...what's not to love?

I may have accidentally bought these shoes last week. I was walking to the drug store and the next thing I knew, I was leaving the Fluevog store with a bag.

My favourite thing about them are the blue soles. You can't really see them here but take my word for it, they're blue.

The buckles tend to jingle when I walk. I pretend I'm a cowboy and they are my spurs.













July 24

I bought this dress in Guelph last weekend.

Dress: Desigual
Belt: Rudsak
Shoes: Fluevog Presence | Impulse

The skirt has a shiney red design on it which you can't see but I thought my shiney bronze shoes would look good with it.

I bought these shoes on my birthday. I've worn them a few times but I guess this is the first time on the blog.

I really like the skirt part of this dress but the top is kinda boring.

I kept futzing around with the belt all day. So annoying!
















Whoops! My tag has come up for air!

































July 25

The weather has been cooler this week so I broke out the man made fabrics.

Dress: H&M (last worn here)
Shoes: Fluevog Miracles | Medugorje

I bought this dress for $10.00 and it was very popular with my coworkers. Someone called it "spectacular". That was kinda nice.

It is pretty awesome. I guess that's why I've hung onto it even though I haven't worn it for almost a year. That's kinda crazy.

Tomorrow night I'm going out with a friend. Tonight I'm tackling my ironing basket. Good night everyone!

May the Forth be with you and the Revenge of the Sixth

On Saturday I went to the opening of the new John Fluevog Shoes in the Distillery District in Toronto.

The store was set to open at 11am but I arrived at 10:30. I had to take a bus and a streetcar and then walk about 3 blocks. I was the forth person in line. Shoe geeks, Unite!

 There was a guy in line ahead of me who found this crate lid that was being thrown away. He was going to take it home.

There were limited edition men's and women's shoes that will only be sold at the Distillery store. I was smitten. Yes, I bought a pair! They are from the Miracle family.

Compared to the Queen Street store, this one is positively huge. It might even be larger than the Gastown store in Vancouver. It's big enough for this huge chandelier. I also loved the design on the back wall.

Because it's in the Distillery District, the store has maintained a rustic feel with unfinished wood and exposed brick.  This makes the shoes look all the more shiny!

There was a table full of Minis.

And the Queen Transcendent Elizabeth with the Kitschy Kitschy Boom Booms and some Acid washed Angels.

I only stayed for about 30 minutes but I left with two pairs of shoes. The limited edition Miracles and the Integrity Arabella.  It's a bit of a trek for me to get there but I'll definitely go back to visit the awesome sales staff.

And here's what I wore today, including the new shoes. Sorry about the blurry shot.

Cardigan: from Value Village
T-shirt: American Apparel
Skirt: Studio Gang on Ossington Street
Shoes: Fluevog Miracles | Marvel

Studio Gang is an awesome store with clothes designed and made by the owner Deborah Korosec. She told me that these pockets were inspired by watching Apocalypse Now. I'm guessing she meant the military lapels. I went in for the clothes and stayed to pat the shop dog!  Doggies!

I'm 100% more likely to visit a store that has a dog or a cat in residence. True fact!

Pinstripes and floral? Not too bad if I say so. The shoes are quite comfortable.

Tomorrow I'm going to Ottawa for about 6 hours. Not sure if I'll get an outfit photo or not.

The 300

I AM SPAT-AAAAAA!

Wearing a shirt with shoes with spats on them, to be exact. (ok, that was really lame. Don't blame a girl for trying to be creative.)

But seriously, could there BE a more perfect shirt motif for me? I think not.

Shirt: Love Charles Vintage on etsy
Dress: Ballerina Cut-out dress (last worn here)
Shoes: Fluevog Miracle | Meera  (last worn here)

Since this is my 300th post, I thought I'd wear my favourite new shirt, my favourite dress, and these shoes that I haven't worn in almost a year.

I wish I had some "spatty" type shoes that would match this outfit. I must keep my eyes open for some red buttony boots.

300 posts is no where as exciting as Sheila's 1400 but I'm pretty thrilled that I've lasted this long blogging.

Here's to another 300. Thanks everyone for your positive feedback and support!
