Hanging Out at the VAG (and new layout!)
Couldn't resist this white blazer from Zara even with the recent purchase of the Elizabeth and James jacket in Orlando. I adore the tailored fit and shoulders, and how it flares out at the hip providing a (much needed) exaggerated curve along the middle of the body.

Now, what I've really been on a hunt for, for what seems like forever now is a bright red blazer with a similar fit. Where can I get one?! Zara, the go to place, hasn't come out with one to my knowledge and my narrow shoulders make it an impossibility for me to look good in any of the vintage ones I've come across on Etsy or Ebay.The Marni sunglasses were yet another great buy from Orlando, discounted from $400 to $85. They're more interesting than they appear to be: the frame actually starts brown at the top and then there is a gradient that changes it to blue gradually. The best part? Getting to choose this case! There were about 20 to choose from and after spending nearly 15 minutes contemplating it almost seemed like the case was being sold instead of the glasses.Photos were taken by my beautiful best friend: we spent the day munching on treats around town (photo below is at the stand of the drool-worthy Japadog: traditional hot dogs with Japanese twists like seaweed and teriyaki sauce toppings!) and shopping (we found her two fabulous dresses).Now.. I hope I don't gross anyone out by doing this, but I wanted to send a message out to my boyfriend in Rome (hope he sees it!)...P.S. Before you start thinking that I've got a dirty mind... "VAG" is the locals' abbreviation for the Vancouver Art Gallery.

P.P.S. I definitely don't smoke marijuanaand do not condone its legalization. The writing on the building were the doings of the protesters that were there earlier in the day ;)

P.P.S.

I guess I might be a bit of a nerd for saying this, but I'm so happy with my new layout! I don't know why I procrastinated with it for so long, but I finally learned how to:

  • Take the border off of my photos
  • Put in a custom template
  • ...and make my photos not blurry!!!!!

There are still a few tweaks that need to be done (like that random search button on the right hand side of my header) but all in all I am quite satisfied!! I would definitely appreciate some feedback. Is this better than before? What else can I do to make your reading experience easier?
