Livin La Vida Vintage

I’m never that intense about sticking to my resolutions but I’ve always used the turning of a new year to reflect on the last twelve months and start envisioning and dreaming for the coming dozen. This year I'm thinking vintage and bringing more of it into my life. Cause with every little bit I collect, I find a little more of myself (d’aaaw) and I hope you’ll slowly but surely start to see this evolution on my blog too. If I was going to make a legit resolution out of this, it would be a challenge to myself – only buy vintage for the next year.

How was your new years eve btw? Equipped with a bottle of champagne and a fancy hat on my hairs, I took to the streets of Toronto with my closest friends from grade 12, who I've been lucky to spend every new years with since.

New Years Eve

Its the last day of 2010 and I just got my 100th follower. Thank you so much! I see it as a sign for fashion made me funky and my coming year on the inter-webs! I'll be sharing my New Years Resolutions in my next post - and I promise, they have nothing to do with weight loss!

This dress was recently purchased from Flashback, a vintage store in Toronto's Kensington Market. It was $33 - the most I've ever spent on a vintage dress! But I love it to bits because its simple and timeless and was made in Montreal (along with the hat I'm wearing, which I got fifty percent off at Goodwill). Thigh high tights are H&M and the shoes are originally Nine West but purchased second hand.













I hope you all have an amazing New Years Eve! xx
