H&M a-line top, a-line top, a-line asymetrical dress, striped tank dress & F21 oversized sweater
As promised, here is a sneak peek at the goods I picked up during my weekend away in Toronto. I hit up my two favourite stores (H&M and Forever21) which we don't have in my city, and did very well. Items that are missing include the F21 striped mini (here, for salsa dancing), three long tanks from H&M (black, white, grey), and my new Aldo wedges. Now I'm going to try and stick to my resolution and wear these items immediately. I've already worn five things (in four days) - I'm getting good!
F21 faux leather pants, H&M flowy ruffle dress, flowy ruffle top/dress, ruffled top & racer-back metal embellished tank
Suzy necklace, Bay ring & Dollarama pashmina
Okay, so, I don't want to jinx anything, and I just might be doing so by writing this out, but, the weather has been so frickin' nice lately. I mean, sure, I was away for the weekend, but, since coming back, nothing but blue skies. I zipped out on my lunch hour to snap these photos as, hello, when I leave it's almost pitch black out, which is a huge downer.. and obviously not ideal for photo taking. Ugh. Regardless, I'm going to lap up the warmth while I still can and if that includes running around behind random buildings while a home-less man walks by just to get some outfit shots, then so be it. Happy hump day!

I took a trip this past weekend to Toronto to visit my very best friend. She moved there just over two months ago, and while it's for a great reason, it sucks being apart. This is my first time visiting her, and she has been back home three times (but I only saw her one of those times) since her move. I left on Thursday (Remembrance Day) and took the train. It was so fantastic having an extra long weekend and spending it with her. Her place is awesome and located in a great hub within walking distance to great shops, restaurants, etc. We ate out every night, did a ton of shopping, went dancing Friday and Saturday and had an amazing time together. It's nice to be home, but I miss her already, and am counting down the days till Christmas holidays when she's back here.

My most recent pair of kicks. Picked these up in Toronto on the weekend while visiting the BFF. We went to the Aldo Outlet on Bloor Street, and what an amazing store. They have so much selection, and the best part: a huge clearance area. I saw shoes from years ago. Wild. I was so pumped when they actually had my size in these (it's so hard to get my size, often, as they don't make many 10's and 11's). I wore these out the same night I bought them and was pleasantly surprised that not only could I dance all night long, but they stayed put, without the ankle strap (unlike these which are beautiful but suck to walk more than three feet in, sadly).
These new wedges might give my favourite wedges a run for their money!
Speaking of, did you see my faves are super on sale now?
