Toque an #ootd

A mirror OOTD? Leggo.

So long/short story about my cardigan, I bought it in New York City at Beacon's closet, it’s by Asos, and it was originally a shirt dress type of thing. After wearing it for a bit in the summer I thought, this would look so much better as a drape style cardigan thing. It was easy as taking my seam ripper to the front seam and ripping the seam out (redundant).

Paired with my H&M 13$ sweater that I love and that all my friends love and bought multiples of (you know who you are), my Aritzia leggings, and my TNA toque which was also kind of a daily. since I sliced off the visor part of it then sewed it up so it would look like a proper toque.

Sometimes you got to change things up for the better.

To keep me warm in the cold I got on my trusty Zara coat and a scarf that my sister gave me which I believe is from Forever 21.

How’s your weekend going so far?

Baby, it's cold out an #ootd

Hello all,

Winter quickly approached and all I've been wearing is my Zara coat, it's simple and classic looking, and black, so it goes with everything.

I've kept my knit head accessories in a drawer I don't go into often but, I took out this knot style band to keep my little noggin toasty.

Original Scarf by Kachi

My friend who's a year ahead of me in my fashion degree program ( http://kateandkouture.weebly.com ) Made this lovely scarf that I am sporting in the photos above. When she starts to sell them i'll make a post all about it! 

New Series: TOPSHOP Wish List

Welcome my fellow readers! I thought it would be fun to add a new series, more fashion related, to my blog! I actually think that these will be my favorite kinds of posts to write because I'll get to chat to you about trends, seasonal items,and shops which I think are great places to get style items from. Since TOPSHOP just opened a location in Vancouver, and seeing as how I was quickly overwhelmed by the amazing-ness of the store, I thought it would be the perfect time to make a list of things I want. The prices in TOPSHOP are a bit pricey but from what i've heard (From Youtbers & Bloggers) the quality is great. 

1. PETITE LONG SLEEVE CROP TEE
Because Winter is still here I think it's essential to keep warm. Though this is a cropped shirt, there would be endless ways of styling it and it would also make a great transitional piece for Spring

2. PETITE EAGLE ARMY JACKET
Army is a trend that has came and gone several times throughout the evolution of fashion. I believe the last time I wore anything army was in 2006...Crazy huh? Well this jacket not only brings back the trend, but it's a great layering piece as well and looks like it would give an exceptional amount of warmth. The added spike studs along the shoulder are a total bonus.

3. GEEK TEE
Graphic tee's, anything with bold or artsy print will never go out of style. This is especially cute because of the rolled sleeves wich kinda make it look a bit bad-ass contrasting to the white bold GEEK print. I'm also a sucker for a deep red or oxblood colored anything!

4. CONE STUD CAMO JACKET

This khaki green jacket looks durable and again, easy to wear! With some leggings/black skinnies and some gold accessories & sleek hair you could dress up this jacket a lot!  

5. RAGGED BEANIE BY THE RAGGED PRIEST

I've kinda been obsessed with beanies. I don't many but I see them EVERYWHERE! This one is very cool and rebel-esque and I think it would be perfect and ideal for cold cold cities...i.e. Vancity! 

What are pieces from TOPSHOP that you've been dying to get?
