Where you live: I am a little bit all over the place, but currently I am living in Burlington, Ontario.
What you do: I study International Studies/Literature, I am a Barista at a coffee shop, I make crafts for fun, and plan trips that don’t always happen.
Favourite places to shop: Zara, Topshop, Forever21, Urban Outfitters, H&M, and American Apparel among others.
Music you can’t stop listening to: Since it has been quite rainy lately I have been listening to a lot of Josh Ritter and Emiliana Torrini (might I suggest “Nothing brings me down” and “Heartstopper”).
Perfect Friday night: Friday is usually for relaxing…I like to stay in and make some good food, watch a movie, make a craft or go out for tea with some friends…Saturday is usually deemed “going out night” or what I now like to call “Britney/Gaga nights”.
What is your secret style weapon? My scary/beautiful studded belt! And of course my classic trench coat.
Where did you get them? After searching far and wide I finally found my beloved belt at Zara, there was only one left waiting just for me! I got the trench at H&M-saw it, fell in love, but alas had zero dollars in the bank so I drove my sad self home to find one of those lovely quarterly government checks they send you in the mail! So I drove back and got the trench!
Why do you love them? I love them because I can mix them with anything. I really love wearing lace or soft dainty dresses with the belt, the contrast of the two is fantastic. You can never go wrong with a trench, it’s cute with boots or a short dress peaking out of the bottom. My new favourite way to wear it is with converse high-tops and bare legs.
If you lost them, you would…: I don’t even want to think about that. I would probably try to find them again, or a new variation of them…maybe a red or navy trench next time? Nah I couldn’t do it, I would be devastated.
