white rabbit legs
I hardly ever wear pants, so why would I ever wear white pants? I don't know the answer to that. I never saw myself as someone who would dare to wear white pants, but when I found this pair in my mom's closet, I just had to take the chance. Lately I've been trying to take chances wearing things I wouldn't normally, and it's proving really fun and exciting to see what I can come up with. I suppose I was kind of scared to wear these pants, simply because they're white, and white isn't particularly a colour I like wearing, especially when it comes down to pants. Yet, the thrill of putting them on and going about my daily life in them gave me a huge boost of confidence in trying other new things.

spring rolls and biscotti
Last night I went out to dinner downtown with my friend, Chris. We had delicious spring rolls, and sweet and sour chicken (so so good). We finished off the evening by eating cookies/biscotti and drinking Starbucks coffee whilst sitting in a Chapters overlooking a gorgeous old building. Overall, a very fun evening.



Forever 21 shirt. Marciano skirt and sweater. Unknown tights. All jewelry = gifts. Guess flats.





Ps. Some of the books you all mentioned reading sounded really interesting. If you have any book recommendations please do mention them. I want to make the most of my free time this summer and read as much as I can.

minimalist
While most days my outfits have me wearing lots of layers or being covered in accessories, there are times when I like wearing a very simple outfit. No jewelry or layers, nothing fancy with my hair, just a dress, some shoes, and a simple pair of tights.
Minimalism is rather wonderful sometimes.
I'm currently reading Moby Dick. It feels so nice to read a book that's not for school.

wild animals in the city
I think that everyone owns a piece of clothing, that for some reason they only wear once every blue moon. As much as I love this skirt, it's that piece of clothing for me. I only recently made it, but it's just something that I might not wear again for a couple months or years. It's not a matter of not knowing how to restyle it, something that isn't an issue, it's just not something I'd want to wear a lot of times.

ray of purple light
I bought this purple AA skirt at an AA rummage sale in November. I waited 8.5 hours to get into the sale, so when I saw this skirt, I just bought it. I didn't really think about it much. I was so exhausted from waiting in line, that I literally bought everything that fit me and that I thought was decent looking. I've worn this skirt a couple times before, but I just didn't post outfit photos cause I didn't have time to take them. Love this skirt though. It's super comfy and purple is my favourite colour, so it all works out well.

AA skirt. Guess blouse and flats. unknown tights. Silver necklace is vintage. Cherry necklace is custom made. Rings are gifts.






My best friend is a year younger than me, so she's graduating from high school this year, which means prom. I spent the day helping her look for a dress. Seven and a half hours later we came home empty handed. I never realised how hard it is to find a prom dress. I was lucky last year, I literally walked into a store, tried on the first dress I saw, and fell in love with it. I hope my best friend finds a dress soon. :)
After an exhausting day of being on my feet for approximately 6 of those 7.5 hours, I really want to just go watch a movie or curl up with a good book. Have an awesome weekend everyone!

flower vomit
Ever since I was small I've just adored flowers. They're just so delicate and beautiful, the colours are numerous, and the way they look after a rainstorm is simply divine. Which is why today I felt like combining a bunch of floral prints together. This outfit definitely says spring to me.




vintage skirt. Weekend by MaxMara blouse. unknown scarf, tights and bag. Guess flats.





On other news, I spent the bigger part of the day spring cleaning. After two months of sitting hidden in my room writing papers and studying, a good clean-up was needed. I spent the evening in the mall with my best friend drinking Starbucks and looking at pretty dresses. What a perfect evening. :)
Have a great day!
