WHAT A DAY! After weeks months of saying that we would get togther, we finally did it!

So what prompted the idea for such a wild get-together? To be honest, I wanted to go rollerskating for the longest time ever and just didn't know who to take--then I got talking on the phone with Antonia, and I instantly knew that these three amazing, talented and very well dressed people would be so down for it! So we called up Andrew and Zoe and made plans for one hell of a Saturday at Wheelies.

Said day consisted of going for lunch at a semi-sketchy vietnamese restauraunt (where our waiter was about 8 years old) with Antonia, and then heading over to meet with Andrew and Zoe at Wheelies, where we shamelessly posed to an audience of adoring little girls, (who all seemed to be mesmerized by Zoe's tutu) skated to Lady Gaga, slow danced to Justin Beiber and all sorts of nonsense!

All in all, had some fun times with my Winnipeg hipster counterparts, and I can't wait to do it again! Also, be sure to visit their amazing blogs if you haven't already!

Hope your all weekends were just as fun and crazy;)

Two days ago, I met up with Antonia of Live Glam or Die for the purpose of...dun dun dun...VINTAGE SHOPPING! At Ruby Slipper, nonetheless. Just one thing...IT WAS CLOSED. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK, FOR NO GOOD REASON(!)

Imagine weeks of planning, many cancellations and compromises crashing down on your head. Yep, we got there and found it closed, with no posted hours, and no explanations...even if we called ahead, there would be no reason for a store open monday-fridays to be inexplicable closed in the middle of the week! God, what a bummer! We were pissed, but not about to give up, so we decided to hit up the closest VV and shop it up...

Then we headed over to starbucks for strawberry lemonades, vivano smoothies and chocochip bananas for a quickie snack!

After the starbucks stop we decided to do a photoshoot in the parking lot...so glamourous! Baha. Photobucket

Finally a picture together! Antonia is just gorgeous (!) so please keep looking at her and just ignore my fug-face. It was a minimal makeup day, okay? ;)

RENDEZ-VOUS AVEC VOUS

Photobucket
Today, Antonia of Live Glam or Die and I had some plans for a downtown Winnipeg rendez-vous. We didn't have much time but we made the most of it, and had a blast! And yeah, we don't have any actual pictures together but then again, my "papparazzi" friend Bryce had other plans at the last minute, and had to cancel. Oh, well, better luck next time!Photobucket
awesome downtown graffitti.

Wearing thrifted tee, H&M cardigan and hat, AA shorts, vintage combat boots.

With spring comes spring cleaning, and with clearing out your room/closet comes MORE NEW CLOTHES. Yes, this is the cycle of life...or rather my wardrobe.

Anyways, cue the Value Village 50% off sale and what do we have? OK, yes, lots of vintage finds for cheap--but we've also got a blogger mash-up! What better time for us Winnipeg bloggers to get together than at this crazy sale?

Lots of insanely good finds, not to mention fun times with Andrew of Pull Teeth and Kylie of Nice and Shiny. Love these two, be sure to check out their sweet blogs if you haven't already!

Hey lovers, I hope you're ready for more travel pictures. To be honest, although I love traveling and taking loads of pictures, I'm getting kind of sick at the process of compiling all of them into one little post (takes about two days, I'm telling you!) so this is going to be the last monster travel post for a very long time.

Anyway, these pictures are from my four-day trip to Toronto last weekend--spent touring the city, vintage shopping with my lovely Canadian counterparts, Alice from Cat's Miu and Elizabeth from Chic Heroin, visiting the Niagara Falls, checking out museums, etc. etc...

Alice and Elizabeth, you two are effing GORGEOUS!
This picture was required as proof that I actually went down and saw the falls for myself. Note the lame poncho, the first and last poncho I will EVER wear in my life.
