Outfit deets:
* Dynamite jacket which you've seen with skinnies, waxed denim (a favourite post), with leggings and booties & once upon a time I belted it (which I would never do anymore).
* Winners top.
* Vigoss jeans (via Alloy) that I love because they come in a 37" inseam & last seen almost three years ago with a classic trench.
* Aldo wedges.
* Accessories: Club Monaco scarf & Aldo clutch.
(This outfit is actually from early spring last year and I never used it, I'd totally rock this look for fall though).
I love living in the city. It's been just over a year since I moved out of the suburbs and into an urban area and it's been great. I love being close to work, downtown, shops and stores and how easy it is to get together with my other city-living friends.
So while taking a walk on my lunch break the other day, around the neighbouring neighbourhoods, I was shocked when I felt a little sad about no longer living in suburbia. Surely I couldn't be pining for a lawn and garden to keep up with, not to mention all that extra space a house holds that needs to be kept clean? But yet I was and I envisioned back to what life was like with a yard, and space, and multiple rooms (a far cry from the one-bedroom apartment I now call home).
Then a moment of anxiety set in: will I grow tired of city living before my new condo is ready? Will I wish I was moving back to the quiet subdivisions I always knew and loved?
Nah.
And the moment was dashed because I know one day, when I'm ready, I will eventually move back to the outskirts of the city, where there is still bustle, but is is less congested and where I will have more space, and a lawn, and a garden and separate living rooms... and besides, I really hate gardening anyways.
Dynamite has some real gems. This jacket is fantastic. I like the kind of retro 70s vibe with your jeans and boots, but how the scarf and updo give it a modern edge.
