Das Boots

A friend was going through her closet and clearing out things she doesn't wear for ebay and yard sale. When I pulled out these patent leather ankle boots my first thought was, "Whatever possessed you to buy these?" But I had to try them on....

Well, now I am the proud owner of a pair of purple patton leather ankle books. There was something about them I couldn't resist!

For you disbelievers out there, perhaps seeing them in the context of an outfit would help!

A Bag Decision

I don't know why I am having so much trouble with this one. I need a new rolling travel tote to replace my old broken zippered one and to compliment my recent lap top purchase. For use on my many plane trips.

I've narrowed it down to these two but I am having trouble deciding. would love to hear your opinions and or suggestions if you have seen any other fabulous bags.

BAG 1: Baggalini
Comes in assorted colors, I think I like the black and blue. Light weight (5lbs) Very cute and fashionable.











BAG2: Travel Pro crew 4
A little less fashiony, more travel based. Definately not as good looking but I think it might be more durable. It's the water bottle holder on the side that I really like!

In Time for Warm Weather?

I bought this jacket at Kensington Market in early November, thinking I had about a week to wear it before the weather turned to shit.


I wore the jacket for the weeks until I went away on holiday to Mexico, then the week after I got back. After that week, I switched to my winter jacket for a short time. This week, the temperature has ranged from 2-13 degrees and the new fall jacket has been traipsing the city with me once again.


Check out the wicked buckle on the sleeves. Love it.


I sincerely hope global warming is not so severe to allow me to wear the fall jacket all through the winter, but I am looking forward to the temperate climate of spring... when the jacket and I can be as one again.

Replacement White T's

I think I've finally found one (or two) suitable to replace the ones I've recenlty had to let go.

American Apparel comes to the rescue!

My first time buying anything there. I found it more expensive than expected but I'm hoping worth it for the quality. They are soft, but a little thin. What do you think? Now considering going back for more colors!

I guess not

I really wanted to wear these boots today.
I love these boots.
They are a little motocycle chick and I waited a loooooong time to buy them.
They are nicer than the picture suggests, perhaps they need an entry all their own?

I keep trying to wear them with skirts, but it just doesn't seem to work.

This morning I just couldn't decide if they looked ok or not with a short skirt so I took a picture of myself to check.

I ended up wearing them with a longer, jean skirt but I am not sure that that worked either. I was late for work so couldn't change again.

Opinions?

Le Piece de Resistance

For some bizarre reason, this pic of my sari did not make it on the previous post. My outfit included the sari WITH all the jeweled trimmings. LOVED IT!!
