Grey Scale

This past weekend in Toronto definitely had me thinking I was back in London. Incessant rain trying to rush us into Fall much earlier than planned, completely threw my plans of heading to the seaside and possibly having a barbecue, right out the door.

Instead, I decided to bake some cookies and start on another not-so-summer-anymore read Anil's Ghost by Michael Ondaatje; "a story about love, about family, about identity...a story propelled by a riveting mystery". I'm only through the first chapter, but these claims definitely hold true. Has anyone else read it....or even heard about it? 

I also finished reading the Kite Runner a while back, and for those who asked, it is most definitely worth the read. Such a well written book, it had me crying from both laughter and sorrow while being completely transported into the life of the characters. 

Not to be outdone, I decided to match the grey skies head on with this monochromatic grey attire. I had initially tried wearing a maxi dress as skirt here and thought I'd give it another go with this grey dress from forever21. Paired with a distressed shirt from Mango, and a diy turban made from an h&m leopard print scarf (okay, I couldn't do the dreary look from head to toe). Have you tried any other monochrome colours? 


Hope you all had a more summer-like weekend than I. Thanks for all your sweet comments and a big welcome to my new readers. I'll be stopping by all your blogs soon. Have a lovely week ahead!

Bisous,
