In a bleak midwinter

Happiness hit her like a train on a track
Coming towards her stuck still no turning back
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
With every bubble she sank with her drink
And washed it away down the kitchen sink

- DOG DAYS ARE OVER -- FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE


All I want to do this time of year is hibernate.
It is so cold that as soon as you take a step outside your face starts to freeze.
I wish I could go back to California!
No news updates for me; I have been mostly working, sleeping, eating, and working on finding the perfect fit for an internship.  I am planning on leaving Toronto for a few months to a surprise destination.  I would tell you but I am not too sure yet, all I know is that an internship in Toronto is mostly a back-up plan if nothing else falls into place.
I am wondering, how is the winter treating you wherever you are?
Today is about a few winter goodies that have been cheering me up.  It is a little depressing that I can not wear most of these shoes in two feet of snow.  However, summer is on the way!  I will share a few more photos from my California trip as well.
Stay tuned for my favourites from S/S 2012 in the next post.
New shoes, purses, and bags.
Shoes top to bottom:
Random boutique - 100$ on sale for 15$
Red pumps - ALDO 100$ on sale for 30$
Mesh and leather black heels - ALDO 100$ on sale for 30$
Nude and black pumps - Sterling 80$ on sale for 30$ each


My extremely unorganized bin full of shoes.  When I get my own place I am getting shelves.  I have boxes piled up beside my bed as well.
Sequin clutch - BCBG (gift <3 )
Cloth clutch with adjustable strap - DKNY


Still more California party pictures to come!

California dreamin'

Be my fairy to the world,
Be my very own constellation,
A teenage bride with a baby inside
Getting high on information
And buy me a star on the boulevard
It's Californication

Happy holidays!
I know I said I would do a winter post but I just got back from a vacation in California so I thought I would just share a few tease photos.
My girlfriend is going to upload pictures from her camera tonight so I will do another post for you tomorrow!
So sorry I have been M.I.A. my loves.  What with my thesis, finishing school, and sneaking off for a vacation, I really have been neglecting my poor little blog.
The good news is that I did so much shopping in California that I was literally holding two pairs of shoes in my hand on the way home while wearing a pair that I bought because they just wouldn't fit in my shoes.
Got a D.K.N.Y. bag that is to die for and tons of other goodies!
Stay tuned!
For now just a few photos from my day trip to Los Angeles.  I want to live there!  I have my heart set on a fashion magazine internship but now I am going to take some time to explore my options abroad.  I love California!


Just a few phone photos!
Hollywood, Santa Monica, Venice Beach, Muscle Beach, Palm Springs


Dress - Boutique 12$
Shoes - Aldo 20$

Happy Holidays to all!
Lots more updates soon.
I got my New Years dress!  Have you?!
