AQUAMARINE

Photos by Kristine
Even though I consider myself to be a seasoned pro when it comes to thrifting, it's still a rare and cherished moment when I come across beautiful, well-fitting and not to mention unique items. Cue this aquamarine blazer I found at one of my favourite thrift stores months ago. The funny thing is, I already had a near-identical blazer sitting at home that was just the tiniest bit bluer, but I bought it regardless. Reason? You just can't say no to a gem like this! And I have no regrets whatsoever. In fact, I prefer this blazer over the first because it's a much better fit and its slightly greener hue makes it that much more unique. Anyone else see an aquamarine-bordering-on-mint-and-sometimes-teal blazer anywhere else? 
On the topic of unique, may I also direct your attention to these shoes? I can't believe I haven't done an outfit post with these yet, because I've been wearing them everywhere all summer! These sandals are my go-to summer "flat" (haha, technically it's a low wedge) and are my absolute favourite. I mean, they're BRIGHT ORANGE how could I not?! The fact that their minimalist design in such a bold colour just seems so Jil Sander...well, that's not a bad thing either.

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!
