September outfit diary

As Fall's starting to creep into the northern hemisphere; days are getting shorter and colder, nights- longer and mistier. Though it won't be below 0 (or not even below +5)anytime soon in the west coast, I'm glad I can finally slowly layer up and wear my favorite comfy outfits.

First look:

 (Necklace: Oak + Fort | Flats: Zara)

It was a pleasant sunny day but not too warm, and since it was an early school day and I wanted to look at least presentable yet absolutely comfy like I'm just lounging at home in my PJ's, I opted for this look.

PS. Above photos are shot from Highstreet at South Granville, it's another local store but they mostly carry the amazing, LA based-brand: Wildfox. My photos are shot by their manager-in-training, Abby!

She's really nice and was very helpful when I was looking for a gift for a friend. Definitely stop by and say hi! The store is very welcoming and your fitting room experience is an oh-so-instagram-worthy feel (if you're down to those stuff).

Second look:

 (Leather jacket: gifted | Top: my grandma's | Blanket scarf: Plum, Vancouver)

(Boyfriend jeans: Target | Trainers: Sketchers)

Second look- a.k.a "how to dress your Sketchers", and when you don't have anyone with you... Mirror selfie!

On a different note, midterms and research papers are coming way too fast at me that I may not update for a month but nevertheless, I'm always in Instagram and Snapchat! So don't fret.

Le Premier: New life, new blog!

After a couple of months working on how to re-make my blog and with all the moving, looking for a job, and applying for a new university on the side, it became a little difficult to hold my blog ideas together when I'm trying to do all those adult stuff. Finally though, before Fall term starts and I got everything straightened out, this is the final touch to everything I have accomplished so far... a new blog (and maintaining it!).

Ever since I explored Vancouver city, I immediately fell inlove. Not only is it situated near the ocean and the mountains but the local scene in the different neighborhoods are up and coming.
I have always loved and supported local because this is what makes a city comes alive (economically and socially). These people who decided to risk their hard earned cash just to challenge the big box scenes, to express what they love through their business, to share what they know to everyone, these are one of the unsung heroes. Though of course I still get my occasional Starbucks fix.

So, let this blog be a new record of all my adventures, favorites, lifestyle, and of course #OOTDs in the big city of Canada's west coast. This time for sure though, I will be maintaining this blog and I promise to keep it updated!

PS. I edited most of my layout that's why it's not very on fleek, I'm getting there though don't worry.
