Nom Nom Nom!

One sunny afternoon, Grace and I were lucky enough to have Tracycakes Easter cupcakes (most delicious cupcake, possibly ever?) and Nutella brownies. A little gratuitous, yes, but the bellyaches were worth it.

On Me:
Garage Sale dress. Brandless knock off Alexander Wang sunglasses.
Gift belt. Hue tights. Chelsea Crew shoes from Modcloth.

On Grace:
Ardene's sunglasses. Thrifted dress+jacket.
H&M bag. AE Necklace.
Forever 21 socks. Converse Chuck Taylors.

Can I Have You?

In my dream closet, every dress is this silhouette.

La Garconne

Gold, Guns, Girls.

Forever 21 cardigan. Metric concert tank top.

Gap studded headband. Wet Seal skirt.

H&M suede wedges.

Mechanics of Man.

Back in March, I got to visit the Vancouver Art Gallery (which I had never been too) for free!

It was during the Paralympics so admission was paid for :)
It was really cool, there was an exhibit features Leonardo da Vinci sketches of human anatomy, on lend from the Queen. I am both baffled and amazed at his ability to draw with such attention to detail, on pieces of paper smaller than your average 8.5' by 11'! A very painstaking task, but it turned out so beautifully.

There were so many inspiring works of art, but my favourite had to be by Wangechi Mutu.
She has amazing collages with glitter and pages from anatomy books and magazines which
bring forth quite an arresting message.
Needless to say, Grace and I had an amazing day!

p.s. Sorry about making sound like I went to Coachella in the last post, I most definitely didn't!
The pictures are from R29! Also, Ssorry for sorry for sporadic outfit posts. I wish I could say they will become more frequent, but since I am currently working 2 jobs, I'm not sure I can keep that promise. I have at least 4 or 5 more coming up, so please keep checking here for updates!
H&M dress. Suzy Shier jacket.
Thrifted belt. Joe tights. Old Navy wedges.
Deena and Ozzy hat.

Jak and Jil.

One of the most visually arresting street style blogs.

If you haven't already, I suggest you Jak and Jil out!

Clogging.

I'm the first to admit...I am adversely opposed to the sudden uprising of clogs.
I just can't wrap my head around the supposed "appeal" of a shoe that makes your foot look like a lump.
To each his own, I guess.
I do, however, love the clog-ish hybrids that have been popping up.
Lovely strappy summer heels in new silhouettes,
many with platforms, is a trend I can definitely get behind.
Check out this killer pair from Rachel Comey!

I Should Have Known.

In the vein of my last post, Refinery29 was out and about at Coachella this weekend too!
Three things:
1: How sick is that draped floral dress!??!
2: That denim romper screams beach+ice cream cone
3: If I could find a pair of jean cutoffs that were exact color of the 8th girl,
my summer wardrobe would be complete!

Out, Where It's Warm.

I am jealous of all you Coachella attendees.
Every year, the style photos from this desert festival
sets off my lust for endless days and balmy nights.
