The minute I saw the Sea of Shoes x ShoeMint collaboration, I knew I had to make them mine. Like, if there were a "yoink" button on my screen (future e-commerce peeps of the world take note), that's what I would have pressed. Since arriving in the mail on Monday, I've paraded around the house in them exactly 800 times (give or take) and dreamed up a lifetime of outfits to accompany them... I'm not obsessed or anything.

Happy Thursday! xx

Just to give you a glimpse into my life, a random lady came up to me while I was taking these photos, leaned in nice and close, and whispered: "You should stand up straight, you know." I'm sorry, but are hunchbacks not in this season? I guess I didn't get the memo. Maybe I should have fibbed and told her that I have scoliosis just to make things nice and awkward � that would have shown her. Stupid retrospect.

Well at least I have this spotted Phillip Lim for Target skirt to keep me (and my hunch) warm at night, right? Sigh.

{Style} Abandoned...

Road trips seem to always be ripe with abandoned-old-building-sightings, which are like catnip for fashion bloggers. That's why I forced Mr. AiF to make a pit stop in a tiny little town to snap pics in front of an old automotive shop. I mean seriously, peeling paint, dirty windows and creepy remnants of it's past life scattered about always makes for a killer backdrop, if not only in my head. But then again lots of things seem better in my head, like fondue or the pleather-pant incident of 2001.

Outfit details: blazer- ASOS; polka dot top- Forever 21; jeans- Joe Fresh; cap toe pumps- Zara; hamilton tote- Michael Kors; woven leather belt- thrifted; necklace- H&M

You know me, always quick to jump on the cheesy-pun express... So when I find a floral print worthy of some good old fashioned word play, you bet your sweet Asos (zing!) I'm going for it� Fleur sure.

Anyway, I picked this blouse up during my inaugural Target Canada visit last week, which has led to re-wearing said shirt more times than I care to admit. But seriously, just try and have a bad day when you're packing tha much floral print action, I dare you... It just can't be done.

Happy Monday, friends! Hope everyone had a nice, relaxing weekend... xx

{Style} Patchwork...

I've been on a bit of a shopping kick lately (I'm thinking May is gonna have to be another shopping ban month), including a mini online tryst with ASOS. Nothing too crazy, but let's just say that my virtual cart ranneth over with a striped skirt (stay tuned!) and this totally awesome blazer. I don't know if it's the vibrant colours or the in-your-face print, but I'm in love with this blazer and in a big way... And now for the credit card payments.

Happy Monday, lovelies! xx
