Modern Romance

I've been interning at a professional services firm located in the financial district. With most people in their power suits and constantly on the go, the neighbourhood easily falls into the "serious" and possibly drab category. I try to put a little fun into my outfits without sticking out like a sour thumb. A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned here that I was going to the Chosen Ones vintage sale. This romantic blouse was one of my precious finds. I love the sheer fabric, soft pink shade, and ruffle details along the neckline and wrists (I have a thing for ruffles; as seen here, here, here, and here). Worn with nude kitten heels and a pair of cropped trousers. Love the pleats around the pockets. They are super versatile, and I could just as easily throw on a loose shirt and a pair of oxfords, and I'm good to go.

It's Wednesday, and I couldn't be happier since I believe weekends start on Thursdays. Daddy dear arrives in a couple of days. If you are in the Toronto area this Sunday, Pedestrian Sunday returns. Cars are banished, and people take over the streets with great music, a plethora of snacks and food, and various expressions of creativity and the arts. Maybe I'll see you there?

Right now I'm off to help celebrate my friend's birthday. Which means I'll be stuffing my face full of cake and dancing like no one's watching. Hey, isn't that the point of birthday celebrations?



EDIT: To those who couldn't see my photos earlier, I'm terribly sorry about that. Thanks for letting me know :) Photobucket....grrrr! I'm working on solving the problem, whatever it is. In the meantime, these are uploaded directly from my computer.

Have a great weekend!

Bisous,
