This weekend we had a lovely time being back in the town where we grew up. The weather finally decided to warm up a bit, so I was able to snap some photos outside. I love taking outfit shots outside. Scenery is so much prettier and the photo quality is better. I love the spring weather and wearing blazers instead of heavy lined winter jackets. Isn't the little brooch cute from Weezi studio? This jean shirt is becoming a staple in my spring wardrobe to update my vintage items.

We were lucky enough that we got to see my boyfriend's nephews which was a highlight of the weekend for me. I got some items checked off of my bridesmaid to do list for the Summer wedding coming up quickly, as well as a meeting for the CF for CF fashion show that is coming up in September. Plans are slowly but surely coming together for our fashion show. There is about 13 girls on the executive. We started meeting and planning the show since November. It's nicer this time around not having so much stress all at once. So much work still to be done though. If you have not been to the show before you'll have to catch it this year. About 500 people come at the Royal Ambassador in Caledon, with 8 fashion houses from around our community. It's to raise money for cystic fibrosis and organ donation awareness. Over the last two fashion shows we've raised more then $60,000 for the foundation. 

Hope your weekend's were awesome!

how to wear old vintage sweaters?

What I wore: 

Sweater: Vintage

Blouse: Lolita (London, ONT)

Pants: American Apparel

Necklace: Chicago Bliss - Available here

I think the key to making an old vintage sweaters work every day is putting a nice soft blouse underneath them. This blouse is a new from a local shop in downtown london. I love the colour and I love the sheerness of it. Putting a pretty feminine blouse underneath a bulky vintage old sweater is the perfect way to wear your vintage 80's sweaters! Of course you need to accessorize these old sweaters so add some jewellery, rings, bracelets, necklaces. I even put a little bow bobby pin in my hair from Weezi creations. 

I'm still trying to figure out the best moves for indoor photos. Bear with me, I think they're turning out a little better then when I first started. It also helps that I got a wireless remote control. This is saving me SO much time. Best investment ever. 

Happy almost weekend.

Ah it feels good to be back blogging. Christmas season has hit in the Hattitude studio. I'm busy busy busy! If you've been following me on Twitter or instagram you've seen updates of my studio and me frantically trying to take photos in between the grey and rainy days of all the new jewellery.
