a dance party. black and pink style

Outfit Details: 
Jewellery: Hattitude jewellery. Click here
Skirt: Girl Friday, Toronto
Shirt: Borrowed
Shoes: Thrifted

I love this DANCE PARTY shirt... which I just found out is not my shirt at all, but my brother's girlfriends shirt. I've found it in my laundry a few years ago and never knew where it came from! I love pink and black. Again there is something sweet about a little detail in your hair, a pink bow. The earrings are fun for summer too. They remind me of little cherries or strawberries. Lipstick is fun for spring. 

What a glorious day it was today! The sun was shining, it was t-shirt weather! Can you believe it? I did my first outfit post in MONTHS outside. It was so wonderful to have such a beautiful back drop to do photos. How do you like this sweet little garden around my apartment building? Pretty. I love Spring flowers. 

Don't forget if you're thinking of a gift for your mama for Mother's day 10% of Hattitude jewellery's sales go towards Cystic Fibrosis to help find a cure until the end of May 2013. Together we can make CF stand for Cure Found. 

Hope your weekend is going beautifully.

a sprained ankle

Outfit details: 
Tights: The bay
Dress: F21
Sweater: Winners
Belt: Thrifted

I threw this outfit on for a more relaxed comfy day. I think this outfit is still warm with the fleece tights to deal with the rain today and springy for when the sun came out. This weather is certainly tricky to dress for without changing your outfit twice a day once for the cold, once for the warmth. 

This sweater I have found really hard to pair with a lot of things. I rarely wear it, even though I like the pattern. I think it goes well with a jean dress. How would you style this cardigan? 

This necklace, I love! The sweet little heart is so cute. It's going to be perfect for the summer months. Love the nautical colours. I hand made this necklace using vintage brooches, beads and earrings as the pendants.

I've sprained my ankle pretty badly last night at our weekly sports league. We play all sorts of sports, every week it's a different sport and last night was Soccer. I HATE soccer. This sprained ankle just reconfirms that. Hobbling around on one foot has not been fun. Thankfully I have a very sweet boyfriend taking care of me.

Have a wonderful rest of the week. Stay Healthy.

a 50's house wife

Outfit Details:
Dress: F21
Necklace: Hattitude Jewelry
Scarf: vintage
Loafers: Vintage

I feel very much like a 50's house wife in this outfit. The Mad Men show really inspired a lot of my outfits last year. I truly love that era for clothing. This is a neat little nautical necklace coming to my online shop soon. Click Here.
It was EXTREMELY warm here in London, ON today, +25, but it was VERY windy so I couldn't take my tripod out to capture the great outdoors! 
Have a great rest of your week!

Ruby Sparks inspired outfit

Outfit Details:

Shirt: Winners

This outfit was very Ruby Sparks inspired. She wears a royal blue dress with purple tights in one of the opening scenes. Have you seen Ruby Sparks? It's such a great film. So original and cute. I love the actors in it, and love that in real life they are dating! Did you like Ruby Sparks? I love quirky movies like that. Any other movie suggestions?

some springy coloured tights


Outfit Details:
Tights: F21
Leg Warmers: from Brazil, Gift
Dress: F21
Sweater: Vintage, The Sentimentalist 

I love these pink tights. Arn't they so fun, especially for Spring? But I REALLY like this sweater. It just seems so whimsical and sweet. I purchased it on the weekend at a vintage shop in London. It feels even better then it looks and the little details on the sides... sigh...you guys know how I love my little details. Sorry about the frizzy hair. It's been rainy on and off all day. 

Thankfully the sun started shining this afternoon again after some heavy rain this morning when I was out and about. Drenched, but it was nice because it was a warm rain. Getting caught in those rain storms are beautiful. Spring is here. There's something romantic about running through the teeming rain and not caring at all. 

How are your weeks going?

a peter pan inspired outfit and organ donation

Outfit Details:
Hat: Aldo
Vest: Vintage
Shirt: Banana Republic
Sweater: Thrifted
Pants: American Apparel

I love this outfit. My hair is finally long enough to sport hats. This is such a great little floppy hat. My closet definitely needs more hats in it I think. This outfit reminds me of a Peter Pan take minus the wool socks? Hey it's chilly here today! The tight green pants, with the feather hat. Inspiration for the day is Peter Pan. A vintage vest with any outfit always looks awesome.

How are your friday's shaping up to be? Tonight we are playing in a bowling tournament with some friends and this afternoon is flxyoga (yoga with resistance bands hanging from the roof). It's quite awesome and SUCH a good work out. 

April is Organ Donation Awareness month and May is Cystic Fibrosis month. In honour of these two VERY important issues I'm donating 10% of my online sales from my shop CLICK HERE to The Lady Team's Great strides walk at the zoo to raise money for Cystic Fibrosis. 

I was born with Cystic Fibrosis and 2 and half years ago underwent a double lung transplant that saved my life. It's been a long road of recovery but it's been beautiful and breath taking! I've loved every minute of the last 2 and a half years and can't wait for the next adventures (did someone say San Francisco?)!  Please talk to your family about your wishes on Organ Donation and save someone's life when you're gone. I owe everything to the person that decided to be an organ donor and I am forever grateful for the generosity of a complete stranger.

wrapping wedding party gifts!

Outfit details: 
Skirt: Toronto Queen st store, vintage fabric
Vest: Winners
Shirt: Urban outfitters
Tights: The bay

I just love this skirt. It's made out of vintage fabric, so of course it spoke to me in store. It's a little autumn feeling this outfit, but hey it was so grey yesterday. Woo Wee. It was tough shooting yesterday to get these photos. Sorry for the grainy photos. It was just so overcast I had to keep upping the exposure on my camera. SO overcast and dreary. I felt like I was back in Vancouver (we lived there for three months last year). It was POURING this morning and has been for the past few days, SEVERE rain fall warning in effect..and it's suppose to snow in London, Ontario on Friday. Give me a break pulease. Anyways I busted out my oh so cute rain booties, and my floral print umbrella, which will keep me going through this rain. At least April showers bring May's flowers. 

If you're wondering how I do up my packages for my lovely brides to be. I wrap them in antique doilies.  Here is a snap shot of a JR bridesmaid bracelet I custom made. Here are some quick photos or you can follow me on instagram www.instagram.com/hattitudejewels for up dates.
