FELINÉ


Shirt - Kenzo
Pants - Margiela x H&M
Socks - Converse 
Shoes - Converse 

So ironically back in November I blogged about people's obsession with a certain green Kenzo sweater, and how I hated seeing them everywhere. And 4 months later, I buy my first Kenzo piece. I sound like the world's biggest hypocrite, but in my defence I blogged a about a green sweater with a tiger on it. And the shirt I am wearing above is almost completely different, well kind of I suppose. 

Me being a hypocrite aside, I do now adore this shirt. And Holt Renfrew has a great selection, well had a great selection. Because Kenzo just flies of the shelves there. 

Have a great night everyone !

Daily Dose of Optimism


Today was one of those days that seemed to drag on forever, and by the time your sitting staring at your computer screen, its 10 pm and you wonder what you've done with the past 22 hours. And as excited as you are to go to sleep, your less excited for what the next day has for you. And although I should at least try to be optimistic right now, the pressure of everything has made that option null and void long ago. The best I can do is drink as much caffeine as possible and push through the next while. JOY!

Shirt - 90's Tommy Hilfiger 
Pants - Margiela x H&M
Shoes - Converse 

On a lighter note, that is what I wore today. I neglected to pick out an outfit the night before, so scrambling this morning I decided to throw on some random, mildly fun top. I typically have a few rules I follow if I don't know what to wear. 

-Wear a fun top that I havn't worn in a while
-Wear tapered pants
-Don't wear glasses

These rules have proven to be fool proof, and the outcome is never anything outstanding. Just mildly pleasing, and enough to get me through the day without feeling awful about my choices. 

Since today is that start of my 'long weekend', I wish you all a good rest of your week. I will try to conjure up something to post about.

ps, I recently discovered a group called The Chevin. And though I have only listened to a few of their songs so far, I am definitely liking what I am hearing. And my image above was sort of inspired by their album cover. 

The Chevin - Beautiful World  This is one of my favourites right now. Enjoy !

I went to the Bank today.

So I went to the bank today, and while I was walking out I glanced in the mirror and noticed that I looked like someone who would work at a bank. A mirror selfie was definitely necessary to visually document this huge revelation.


Peacoat - Banana Republic
Pants - Margiela x H&M
Socks - American Apparel
Shoes - Comme des Garcons x Converse
Bag - Coach

Please don't hate on me for wearing a Coach bag, I removed the gaudy hangtags to make the bag inconspicuous. On a side note, I wonder what the people at the ATM were thinking when a supposed bank employee was taking selfies at the entrance mirror. Probably like, "wow that person must love their job so much that they document each passing day with a photo",  I digress. 

On another side note I was just thinking, for the past months I have been trying to make the time go by quickly. Ive been not keeping track of dates, keeping busy, yada yada yada. Today I just stopped for a moment and thought, "gadamn time has certainly flown by, and now I can't make it slow down". Like forealzies.

Well that was my post for today, please laugh at my banter and ignore my bad grammar. I fully intend on going on a 5 day hiatus, so at that I wish you all a lovely long weekend.

Cut & Paste


Please do not mind the distorted photo that is the mediocre cut & paste equivalent to the Texas Chain Saw Massacre's leather face mask. It was a busy day and to be completely honest snapping a quick outfit photo was too much of a task today. To compensate I whipped out my trusty laptop & camera and snapped away minutes prior to posting this.

I slept for 3 hours and woke up feeling like a spring chicken. (Im being sarcastic). Being as I wanted nothing more then to just curl up in a chinchilla shrug and call it a day, my outfit mission was well comfort. Oh how I hate admitting that.

Fun Tip:
Dress pants are more comfortable then jeans, they are lighter and softer and look way better. So thats what I opted for today.

Sweatshirt: Margiela x H&M
Pants: Margiela x H&M
Boots: Sebago

The title of today's post was firstly pertaining to me being a virtuoso at photo editing, as well as simply describing each piece I was wearing today. My sweatshirt having a shirt printed onto it, my pants being two pants made into one, and of course my boots being a fusion of an ankle boot and a penny loafer. Pretty fukcing clever if you ask me.

Now I must try to complete my assignments to hopefully get a tad more then a 3 hour sleep tonight.

Go To Sleep Winter, Your Drunk.


AHHH, Spring has sprung. Well not exactly but this photo certainly makes it appear as though that has happened. I am currently in a sunny disposition seeing as my weekend can finally start, and my pant fitting went great today, (horay)!

For my outfit today I embraced my inner asian and wore a shirt by A. Bros Productions, I think thats the brand. The shirt's tag just has random little cartoons on it so Im not really too sure who makes it. My pants are Margiela x HM, my socks are American Apparel and I love them. The orange chapeau on my tete is a supreme, and I love how it kind of blends in with the flowers that are taking over my picture. And finally on my feet are a pair of Alifes.

I hope this picture brightened up your day, and hopefully I have inspired you to wear your most ridiculous shirts. Because its super fun too do so.

Light Colors +A Tired Face


When scrolling through my previous posts yesterday, I realized I have been wearing a lot of dark colours and over sized pieces lately. For today's look I wanted to do quite the opposite.  Slim fitting pieces in light colours were my outfit aspirations, and plus light colors make me look less pale so its a win win !

I wore a cap that I thrifted a while ago, at first the inside was white and made it look like I constantly had a due rag on under my hat. So I ended up sharpie-ing the inside of the hat, now it just leaves a black ring on my head... My pants are the painted ones from the Margiela x H&M collaboration. My shirt is a basic from H&M and my shoes are Jeremy Scott x Adidas Originals FW12.

For me tomorrow is my last day of classes for the week, and running on a very little sleep I couldn't be more excited to finally sleep in, (hopefully).

I will try to retrieve my outfit shots from yesterday, and try to post them on the weekend. However, for now I have pants to sew, for tomorrow morning...

But Baby It's Still Cold Outside...

I know Its January, and seeing as it is still technically the 'winter months' I shouldn't be complaining about cold weather, but I am. After the Christmas season comes and goes, soon after I anticipate hot hot HEAT! And every year it is the same story of wind chapped faces and wool coats that feel like cocoons. Where is this Global warming that everyone (used too) talk about, I guess its as passé as those Miu Miu glitter booties...



I got followed home by 2 odd individuals, so I decided to take their photos as evidence. (kidding).

First is my lovely friend who was incredibly jet lagged but still rolled up to school in platforms. Gotta love someone who realizes everyday is a day for heels.

After her is my other friend who rolled up in layers and layers of warm fabrics. Since she was wearing a reversed fur coat and felt very Margiela, she decided to throw a scarf over her face in spirit of Maison Martin Margiela's Spring/Summer 2009 collection.

And I doing my very best to keep myself warm, doing an awkward tippy toe stance that screams "PARKIN LAWT HI FASHUN". On me is one of my favourite pieces in my wardrobe, a vintage red duffle coat that I purchased in La Marais in Paris. An old Topman shirt that reminded me of Thom Browne and I had to buy it, plus the inside of the collar is hawaiian print and I could't resist that. I have my trickery pants on, well actually they are Margiela x H&M and just look like inside out jeans. But shhhh we will just let people think what they want, its entertaining. My feet are graced with Cole Haan brown suede brogues that are country club worthy to say the least. My back is weighed down with a rust coloured Herschel, that would appear to be able to fit your schooling essentials, but it really doesn't... Finally my accessories of the day was a Caputo&Co brown leather bracelet from bloomies (bloomingdales), and a beat up burgundy Bally belt, (say that ten times fast).

Happy Thursday!
