SNOWFLAKES IN JULY.

For as long as I can remember I've always said: "I love snow, but I hate the cold that comes along with it. Why can't it 'snow' in the summer?" 

Well, to my joyous surprise, I realized that when pollen flies around in the early summer, it pretty much looks exactly like snow! Sucks to be allergic..

I bring this up because these amazing sequin shorts resemble falling snowflakes, except of course you'd only be able to wear them when it's blazing hot outside (like it is right now, the weather network claims it "feels like +46 Celsius" every day). I love pieces like this because you basically have to structure your entire outfit around one key piece, which makes styling more fool-proof for me. I'm a big fan of white too, in case you can't tell, so I tend to just pair everything with white. 

On that note, I got my teeth whitened today, which burned my gums to the bone. 

My dentist also told me not to consume any "staining foods", to which I replied, 

"You don't mean... cherries... do you?". 

"No, definitely no cherries!"

ON THE MOUNTAINS OF AMALFI.

Truth be told, I'm actually supposed to be at my high school graduation ceremony right now- but due to a last minute change of plans, I'm wearing my grad dress in Amalfi, Italy! Not complaining, like, at all. Within a short few hours of being here I was flooded with a sea of questions. How are there trees growing on rocky mountains? How cool must it be too live on top of a cave? Why are the lemons so big?

Amalfi is definitely an incredible coast to visit, although honestly I can't wait to spend a day in Rome- one of my favorite cities I've ever visited. I'm a city girl, all the way. Even California couldn't do it for me. 

In other news, I didn't have the brains to plan my outfits prior to the trip, so I have 17kg worth of clothing in my luggage, which only means lots and lots of blog posts!

Enjoy! ;) haha

NOSTALGIC.

When denim overalls started hitting the shops this year I went bonkers! It's like a 90's child's dream-come-true! I actually still own overalls from when I was 4 years old, except now they fit me like a tank top, which is pretty damn charming if you ask me.
 Sadly, no matter how many overalls with shorts I tried on, it just looked unflattering. This dress I spotted one day on romwe literally saved my overall dreams, because it was the safest mix of childish and girly- making it so easy to wear! I paired it with a nude floral cami underneath and let the dress do all the talking by keeping everything else extremely simple.
Put on some pink blush, a big smile and instantly look 10 years younger! ;)

DECIPHER REFLECTIONS

These past few days have been quite gloomy and unreadable- which to me means wearing my favorite and most comfortable sweaters (and glorious veggie sandwiches at urban herbivore) are a must! Aztec or printed cardigans are such a fun and summer-esque way to spice you the usual solid cardigans, and surprisingly  I don't ever get tired of them because they are quite universal!  It's February, which means only good things are to come from now on! Fashion week/month is coming up, and so many more fun events!

See you soon!

LAST DAY IN LONDON.

Coat: ZARA / Silk Tank: Wilfred / Jeans: Hudson Jeans / Boots: Jeffrey Campbell 'rumble' / Beanie: Urban Outfitters

Ah, the second, and unfortunately last post about my trip to London, which consisted of one full day, and a half day. 

The half day was reserved to shopping, checking out the city, taking a typical bus tour, and an afternoon tea at the Charlotte Hotel. To our luck, it didn't rain while we were there, so the weather was thankfully cooperating with us! 

We started with breakfast at The Riding House Cafe, where I got a cute parfait bowl and a fresh juice. We went off to shop around Oxford street, stopped at the famous Selfridges, I finally got my hands on some Laduree macarons, we had a magnificent afternoon tea, and before I knew it... it was time to go back home. 

I have a leftover 10 British Pounds, so that means I absolutely must come back soon! ;)

In all seriousness, London is a phenomenal city, and I have to thank Nokia for the amazing experience. I couldn't have pictured a better weekend! Soon I'll share the video we worked on, and the limited edition LeiVanKash piece will also be announced.

Talk soon,

xo

BLEACHED OXBLOOD.

Hey hey!

So oxblood.. big trend right? Right. Well, here I present you bleached oxblood. Or you could be normal and call it red. But we're not about that here at classisinternal ;)

I recently got this "red" top- which by the way, I know it sounds silly but all of my plain shirts are from Wilfred because the quality is so amazing that I don't treat them as "plain shirts". Oh no, no, no.

I paired it with my favorite jean shorts, which happen to be the result of a successful DIY project, and my holy combat boots.

Note: I've never liked shorts with tights, but.. I don't think it actually looks that bad. The trick is to pair shorts with tights incredibly sheer, so it's not screaming "It's-2006-and-you-wear-your-skirts-with-leggings".

See you tomorrow!

Red Top: Wilfred / Denim Shorts: DIY / Combat Boots: Shoemint / Tights: DKNY 

SIMPLEST OF ALL.

Blue jeans, white shirt.. walked into the room you know you made my eyes burn;)  I threw this together without thinking but I thought it looked cool enough to take some pictures.. I'd take the classic "terrace pictures", but it was pouring rain all day!These are still my favorite jeans, and I think I love wearing them so much because people always give me looks as if I got attacked by a rabid animal and can't be bothered to buy new jeans haha

BDG Jeans: Urban Outfitters / Crochet Cardigan: Brandy Melville / White top: Wilfred / Combat Boots: Stole from mom.. ;) 

HIGH PARK.

Here's a little outfit post that I wore when I went to high park a few days ago! I wrote on twitter "high park" and someone replied "uh...", and only then did I realize the name "high park" is totally misleading haha. High park is like a Toronto version of central park, although who could compare anything to New York City (I'm having withdrawal right now). See you guys soon!

H&M TREND JEANS & WILFRED

Happy monday lovelies!
As promised, I'm going to share some of the things I got yesterday, and I'll show you guys the rest later.
The top is from an amazing Canadian designer named Wilfred, which is sold in Aritzia stores (that are now located in New York City too)! Wilfred is definitely one of my favorite designers because of the feminine design, quality and neat sewing, and of course, my absolute favorite thing is that they use silk in their designs all the time. Like real, 100% silk! None of that rayon or satin crap (Forever 21 anyone?)
Aritzia is having a sale right now on pretty much everything in store, so I would definitely suggest going by if you're in Canada. The shirt used to be $60, but I got it for $48- which is not too shabby considering how flawless it is!

Also, I went by H&M to check out what new stuff they had, and when I found these jeans... I died. My heart froze. They were actually being sold. I was actually looking at them. And they had my size.. what is this magical sequence of fortunate events?
I found these jeans on Andy's or stylescrapbook's blog and I assumed that these were given to super cool bloggers only and then were going on sale for like a day in the fall. Au contraire! There is a whole new collection of gorgeous stuff from H&M, featuring all my favorites: Silk shorts, velvet tank tops, and of course, pearl and gem cuff jeans! Perfection!

Here's the outfit I wore today, and let's move past the fact that these shorts are 10,000 sizes too big for me. That's just what happens when you really like shopping at vintage stores for shorts but they don't feel the same way.

Don't forget to check back tomorrow for some other new purchases! Just a hint: it rhymes with milk but doesn't make my stomach hurt for a week.
