This time last year I couldn't get enough of this song, and here I am again a year later, with it still going strong on my playlist. Only difference is that a year ago, I was back in London with the fam and today I'm in Toronto. As much as I'm itching to hop on the next plane eastbound, I think this Christmas will be just as exciting; albeit in a different way. Surely I've bitten off more than I can chew with the Christmas dinner my sister and I have planned for a bunch of our friends. I decided to start on preparations a bit early and had Florence + the Machine accompany me the entire weekend while I got some shopping done.
This blazer was one of two pieces I picked up on my trip to New York. Amidst all the hustle and bustle going on that weekend, I was able to snag this up from new york vintage. The leopard print collar and button were really what sold me, and I see a lot of wear going on with this one. Worn here with liquid leggings and a ruffle blouse previously seen here.
Hope you had a good weekend. All set for the holidays?
Bisous,
Abi

Wow!!!))) Super style dear!!!)))
Nice blog!!!
Totally love that jacket, I'm such a leopard junkie! It really is going to be super versatile and will have a long life.
I hear you about the holidays, this year will be normal, but next year I'll have moved and who knows if I'll be able to get back home to celebrate with my family...should be interesting.
Good luck to you and your sister...I'm sure dinner will be fabulous, and even if your food turns out inedible, it will still be a great memory :)

Great blazer and I love the heels!
Still no word on the laptop, but thanks so much for asking :)
I applaud you on snatching that blazer up. The leopard print collar is so fantastic. A simple way of bringing an often overused print into an outfit. Lovely.
Thank you very much for the advice on the bangs (on top of the congratulations for all As)! I did it myself and it turned out well which is a relief! I can't believe how much snow we've gotten here either. Has it snowed a tiny bit in Toronto? Maybe you'll be surprised! Merry Christmas to you too.
I love this jacket! The leopard collar is so fun!!
