The official 'sister & me' day. We engaged in one of my favourite past times- people watching, while having a lovely 3 hour lunch (yes, we like to completely digest our food and get crazy hungry even before leaving the restaurant) on a very sunny terrace. Then it was off to shopping for randoms, the bookshop, and of course stopping off for some apple and cinnamon pie with a nice cup of tea.
I am wearing this vintage dress I bought a little while back from 69 Vintage. I love the shapes that immediately got me thinking of fiery dragons for reasons unknown. I decided to pair it with leggings since I felt it a tad too short; and was not too trusting of the wind. Surprisingly enough, the dress remained faithful and stayed defiant against the gusts of wind that were looking to shame me. Ha! Might wear it again sans the leggings.
so i just read in your bio that you're in toronto by way of london and lagos which i think is pretty amazing because my parents are both from nigeria!! i really want to go there one day, i hear it's amazing!
Hi, thanks for the comment, I thought I'd reply to your question about the necklace on here incase you didnt check back. Plus it gave me a chance to look at your blog! The necklace was from Urban Outfitters, hope you can find one! Love your dress by the way Lizzie x
great nude heels dvrling! i'd love them even more if they were higher ;)
I saw the you commented on Taylor of Sterling Style's post about Ashley Olsen - I did a DIY Givenchy inspired studded leather jacket with MK Olsen in mind.
Thanks for all your lovely comments :) I'll be stopping by all your blogs (for those who have one) and leaving feedback incase you don't see this, but do come by more often if you do ;). Ha!
I fell in love with the deep red and the pattern when I spotted it.
@ tywo: I could ship it to you if you ask nicely :P
@BALKAN COUTURE: I wasn't too sure about the shoes initially, but it didn't look too shabby.
@Sarah: maybe I'll have to do a giveaway soon-ish?
