Wardrobe Wednesday // Instagram Edition

I love shopping as much as the next girl, but I've been trying to cutback a bit this month as a bit of a personal challenge... Now I know you must be thinking 'Wow, she must really hate herself,' but I assure you, I do not... I just wanted to try my hand at reducing my clothing consumption while making more out of what I already have. And although I've picked up a couple things here and there (see my Forever 21 jewelry haul above!), it feels pretty darn good saving money for a change... Go figure.

So for this week's Wardrobe Wednesday I thought it best to focus on some cherished accessories and my new favourite store, with only minimal attention paid (no pun!) to new purchases... I must be turning a new leaf or something! xx

Clockwise from top: Clothing & amazing oxfords from Loft 82; skull bracelet from H&M Against AIDS (so cute!); a few of my fave lip colours from Joe Fresh, Revlon & Sephora; a super old nail polish DIY on old H&M rings; my House of Harlow bangle and new Forever 21 bracelet; my latest jewelry haul from Forever 21; a nail polish DIY I did for the Edmonton Journal

Light as a Feather...

Question: Did you guys ever play 'light as a feather, stiff as a board' when you were kids? I guess the feather print on this Forever 21 dress reminded me of those early days on the playground, where we hopelessly willed ourselves to float in thin air between breaks from the monkey bars or daisy chain-making... Oh, the good old days. Well needless to say, it didn't really happened for us � I guess eight-year-old Vickie's levitating skills never quite kicked in... At least I'll always have this feather dress though, right?

Wardrobe Wednesday...

Now that the snow has melted, my feet feel anew with all the footwear options at their disposal... Oxfords? Of course! Slingbacks? Sure! Peep toes? Why not! And as far as material is concerned, canvas is leading the charge to my feet's heart � so to speak. That's why I couldn't resist these polka dot lovelies at Forever 21 last week. They're cute, comfy and seasonally appropriate... And even though they ever so slightly resemble clown bowling shoes, my feet and I are seriously smitten. xx

Mall Rats...

Having had the day off yesterday, I decided to go on a lovely shopping/coffee date with a new friend...  We enjoyed sinfully tasty treats (you're the worst, Starbucks!) and took a quick boo around the mall, which resulted in me buying a pair of mint jeans at Zara (finally!) and my first-ever Pandora bracelet, sans charms... Hey, one step at a time, right?

What did you guys get up to this Easter long weekend? Fill me in! xx

Writer's Block...

When Jenna and I stumbled across this awesome graffiti wall during WCFW last week, we instantly knew it would make the perfect backdrop for photos. You know me and graffiti, and luckily my homegirl felt the same... Can you say photo op?

And in other news, I had a couple deadlines that week that I was seriously stressing over, and I think the wall sensed it �check out the "writer's block"graff in the first photo! Too funny...

Happy Weekending, my sweets! xx
