All In The Spirit Of Halloween...I Think.




Jacket Old Navy | Leather Vest (Under) Forever21 | Skirt Gisela Ramirez | Dress DIY | Scarf AA


I'm about to head out for some much needed Halloween fun, and by "fun" I mean robbing my little cousins of their favorite candy and claiming it as my own. I don't really know if this is in the spirit of Halloween, or if my inner goth has been suppressed for too long, but this is what happened.

Oh, let me officially go on the record and say that Martha Stewart's Onyx Craft Glitter is single-handedly the best thing that has ever happened to my nails. Yes, it feels a bit like sand paper, and yes, I put a run in my pantyhose this morning with my glittery nail, but it's kind of worth it... *shrug* Anyways, let me proceed with my evening of treat snatching,

Happy Halloween Everyone!

Puffer





Vest & Sweater Old Navy | Pants Evans | Shoes 80%20 | Bag eBay | Watch Michael Kors | Hat H&M


It's been raining and windy for the last few weeks here in Toronto, forcing me to wear boots, thick scarves & trench coats for protection, but this weekend has been nothing short of beautiful. A cool breeze and warm sunshine all day, perfect layering weather. I bought this amazing puffer vest from Old Navy last week. They are doing a fabulous job of clearing out my bank account and leaving me beyond broke. Their basics right now are flawless, and on sale! ( the word "sale" pretty much justifies any purchase for me these days...)

I've also been DYING to wear these wedges from 80%20. I bought them at a moment of weakness while on my "shopping ban" and realized they weren't as practical as I convinced myself they'd be. *rolls eyes because I never officially STARTED the shopping ban, but whatever!* The patterned 4" heel gives my boring outfits a little personality, I'll keep them!

Leather And Neon






Sweater Dorothy Perkins | Jacket GAP | Leather Skirt Leather Cult | Shoes Barefoot Tess | Necklaces Aldo, Forever21, DIY | Bag Cambridge Satchel Company

IT WASN'T A SCAM SITE, THE SKIRT IS ALIVE! You already know what I'm going to say... Go buy this freaking skirt. Hands down, this is my favorite clothing item that I've ever purchased. Now, you're all thinking "but Franceta, you say that about everything you buy..." and you would be 100% right (I even said this about the neon bag in these photos!) but this pretty much takes the cake... the crown, the throne... it's just amazing.

This has become an "everyday outfit" for me. A knit sweater, black bottoms, a chunky necklace, one of my 4 trench coats and a colourful bag. There is really only one reason for this... I'm lazy and it's simple, that's it! I'd like to pretend I'm this trend savvy girl and that I was going for the "neon look" but I truly just love this colour, and try to incorporate it into my outfits, daily. It's going to suck when the trend dies and my love for the colour remains... *sigh*
