Spring

Even though it was officially Spring on Friday it's still a bit cold in Toronto. I can't wait for it to get warmer I have so many outfits in store. 

Little Black Tie

In November I got a navy dress from Zara that had a neck tie which is what I really liked about the dress. The neck tie is what also made the dress a little bit different to style. I had always wanted to try the classic french twist hair style but if done with that dress I thought I would end up looking like a flight attendant. Instead of going for the french twist I channeled my favourite fashion decade, the 60's. I wore my hair straight parted to the side with a "pouf" in the back, and a very bold smokey eye.  To accessorize I wore the short dress thigh high boots. I had the front of the dress shortened in the so that a little bit of thigh was visible so the boots didn't just look like heels with tights. I didn't look like a flight attendant at all!

Now here is the sad part ...

I was doing laundry last month and as the inexperienced laundress I am I shrunk my dress into a weird fitting tight shirt. Since my favourite part of the dress - the neck tie was still okay I cut it off the dress and voila I wore it today with a T-shirt.

Distillery District Take Two

I went to the Distillery District Christmas Market again this weekend but this time with my family and at night. The market is so much prettier at night and it was the perfect night to go because it wasn't cold at all. Clearly everyone else knew it was a perfect night also because there was a huge line to get into the market and every restaurant had a two to three hour wait. 

Crazy, but so pretty. 

Distillery District

Today I had the pleasure of going on a school trip to the Distillery District in Downtown Toronto. The Distillery is definitely one of my favourite Toronto neighborhoods. It's a piece of the past with old industrial buildings and cobble stone roads stuck right in the middle of booming modern day Toronto. I'm not sure how long ago this started but every year for Christmas there is an old time Christmas market set up in the Distillery with food vendors with grilled cheese, schnitzel, apple cider etc. There is also a Ferris Wheel and carousel. Another thing so appealing about Christmas in the Distillery is that all the shops, many art gallery's, and restaurants are decorated for Christmas while Christmas music plays in the background. There is so much spirit in the Distillery District this time of year. I love it there and for anyone who has not been I highly recommend going but at night to get the full experience !
