Now Playing: Swedish House Mafia ft. Pharrell - One

Anyone who knows me, knows I LIVE for house music. Around 80% of my playlists are house, and when they're not, they're trance. Everything about this song makes me want to stand up and dance until I can no longer STAND. Must say, I'm a bit disappointing over the music video, mainly because I wanted to catch a glimpse of Pharrell gazing into the camera and envision him singing these words to me... Hey, I can dream right? lol

The Outfit Today: Cheetah Print & Cut-Offs

Went to go meet some friends for a quick meal & some shopping downtown today, nothing to special. I swear Toronto's branch of Mother Nature is seriously PMS'ing. This morning it was pouring -2 degree rain and then I turn on the weather channel which insists on tells me that its going to be 26 degrees and beaming sun... Yeah, it's kind of hard to dress under these conditions. You either freeze or sweat to death lol.

I'm also really hating my wardrobe these days... well not so much my wardrobe as the lack their of. My accessories are also lacking in every department and it's becoming a problem. Ultimately I am bored with all of my clothing, and if EYEEE am bored, I am sure you guys are too! I'm now on the hunt for a new job to pay for these necessities... YES, I sadly used the word necessities!

#DittoWatch Disappointment

Alright my fellow fatties, let's not lie... We all waited with next to NO patience, scavenged the net for previews and pictures, & refreshed the www.bethdittoatevans.com page about +100 times over the course of this week, praying for the 2010 Beth Ditto for Evans collection to go live. Don't worry, you were not alone! We were all their refreshing with you, even if we won't admit it.

After reading some of the the hilariously crazed #DittoWatch'ing tweets, I was painfully excited to see what Beth, the queen of the adorable fatties, had to offer this season. Then I took a look for myself... and was sadly disappointed. I have to admit that I am completely heartbroken over this year's let down of a collection. Then again, I am 100% bitter that I a) did not get to order anything from last year's collection, and b)that there were no new leather pieces. I know she had done them in the past, but I was hoping for at least few new ones. I was also holding my breath for more then one velvet piece *sigh* again, let down.

I don't think I will be ordering any of this year's items... At most, maybe the floral tights if I am dire need of some retail therapy, don't hold me too it lol. These were the only three items that came anywhere close to catching my eye. Let me start wishing for the best next year!

3. $37 CDN - high waist floral leggings

The Outfit Today: Lazy Outfit Post

This may just be the laziest post I have ever done. I went out today and got complemented on my outfit 3 times... why you may ask? I do not know, I looked like a bum in my eyes! I literally woke up, threw on all my necklaces, a shirt, a jacket, and left. Anyways, I thought I would do a quick, bummy post... voila, my lazy boho look!


These boots are dieing a slow and painful death. The whole sole of the shoe came off 6 months after I bought them online. It cost me $20 but I had them repaired, and now the left boot is starting to do that 'talking-shoe' looking thing at the back... When I walk, it flaps *sigh* I love these boots, so I will wear them until the day they fall to shreds.

The Outfit Today: Yay For Layering!

Hello there and HAPPY autumn my fashionable lovelies! How is everyyyyyone doing? I hope the answer is FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC! It's been over two weeks without an outfit post, I think it was well overdue.

If you are like me, and half of the other girls in the world, you are ecstatic about the fact that fall is coming. It is officially cold enough in Toronto for me to layer clothing without a) dieing of heat from the cardigan, jacket, scarf & pants. b) Freezing to death without needing the Canadian second skin... a down filled parka. And c) looking like the crazy layered lady on the bus in humid, 45 degree weather.


I don't know what is going on in my head these days but color is just not appealing to me. All of my outfits are starting to look the same. Black bottom, some sort of denim and a neutral colored accessory. *Shrugs* oh well, what can you do right! I have held off the "back to school" shopping because frankly, by the time I go back to school in January I will want a whole new wardrobe lol. Maybe when I get around to it, I will force myself to buy color (Knowing me, I really will not even try!)
