Blouse, pants, hat and bag - Winners//Scarf - Primark//Coat - Unknown (old)//Booties - Crown Vintage

 The past few days have been quite uneventful and the highlight has been the ever-changing weather; it was bitterly cold and windy one day yet sunny, warm and spring-like the next!  Unfortunately I came down with a cold and spent the majority of the long weekend trying to sleep it off, or eating soup and drinking cappuccinos while awake.  I also happened to see Wes Anderson's "Moonrise Kingdom".  I know his movies aren't everyone's piece of cake but I did enjoy his movie "The Darjeeling Limited" and absolutely loved "Fantastic Mr. Fox" (based on the book by Roald Dahl) so I had high expectations for his newest movie - and it did not disappoint :).  It is about a young boy and girl who fall in love and try to run away together.  Also, Bob Balaban plays the cutest old weatherman I've ever seen.  Have you seen it? x

an evening at the park

Hat from Winners//Shirt from Forever 21//Jeans from Gap//Pendant Necklace from Nixon//Flats from unknown//Bracelet from H&M

Ah the chambray shirt, one of my favourite closet staples.  I feel like this button-up can be worn with almost anything.  It is amazingly comfortable - even my cat sees to agree.. I found her napping on it - and perfect to wear on a relaxing summer evening at the park.  

The floppy hat is one of my best thrifty finds.  I came across it on a clearance rack at Winners for 90 cents..All it was missing was some fabric to go around it.  This was quickly resolved by picking up some Extra Wide Double Fold Bias Tape and tying it around the hat with a small bow.
