AE: Bloggers Do It Better

Hi Lovely Friends. Last week, American Eagle sent the beautiful Cara of A Fashion Love Affair and I the same dress and asked us to style it in our own individual way for summer. Usually when I'm presented with something super girly, my instinct is to rough it up a bit, or pair it with something that will give it an edge, hence the leather jacket. I'm trying to dress more colourfully for summer (after wearing nothing but grey and navy all spring), and this dress does help accomplish that. You can click here to see how we both wore it.
P.S. I finally went through with it and cut my hair... what do you think?

Hawaii Two

So I'm definitely feeling nostalgic for Hawaii today... I miss the beach, the fresh air and all my friends there in a major way.
This dress was one of my favourite purchases from my trip. I bought it at Homecoming in Honolulu. I loved so many of the shops in Chinatown, especially the ones along Bethel Street. Homecoming was one of the ones I revisited a few times before my stay on Oahu was over.

... and then it started to rain, and I was none too pleased about that.

Love is Blindness

Well, I officially turn 24 tomorrow. I think my 23rd year sped by faster than any other, and part of me wishes I could hold on to it a little longer, though I suppose I don't really get much say in the matter. Looking forward to celebrating with my family today when they return from their month long European adventure, and with multiple dinner with friends over the weekend.

Red, White and Blue

This ASOS swing dress has quickly become one of my favourite pieces in my wardrobe. Because of the long sleeves, I won't be able to wear it for much longer, as it's starting to get much warmer in Toronto. Thankfully, I recently purchased the short sleeved version, so I'll be able to wear Breton-striped swingy goodness alllll summer long!

Wearing: Theyskens' Theory leather jacket, Glamorous swing dress, Zara scarf (similar styles here, here and here), Balenciaga bag, Repetto Zizi oxfords.  x E
