Fire Starter


















The weather this weekend was none other then..Yuck...it's been rainy and cold and to top it all off we had a propane explosion last night in Toronto which caused an earthquake like tremor. Many homes in the area had their windows and doors blown in. Needless to say, I stayed in and laid low. We rented "The Bank Job" which I would recommend..even if you do only watch it for some of the fashion (some great 70s outfits!..suprisingly). AND there are some of my fave mags i've been reading (minus..Elle..its missing from the pile). Now on to the outfit...The jeans were taken from Le BF- they obviously don't fit him- too small, but he found them in his closet and was joking that he would wear them today...I saw them and told him...nope..I will :P...and took those great Diesel jeans that are 4 sizes too big for me. I like the bagginess of the jeans and to solve the waist problem- I just folded them down. I do hope the pics get a little better- I just got a tripod and was testing it out...this is my "practice shoot".

Jeans: Diesel courtesy of Le BF at No co$t
Shirt: Diesel $30 on sale
Bag: B Makowsky (bought at Browns) $300
Shoes: Nine West- $20 on sale at Winners

That is funny, I rented that movie last weekend too. The guy I'm dating has a man-crush on Jason Statham. I fell asleep half-way through it through it though.

Savvy Mode SG said...

♥ Marta ♥ said...

hey you ... Love this outfit.So effortless and chic and I totally wish that I could steal bf's jeans (he would probably freak, lol)... by the way, you always have such great finds... and for magazines, well... I used to buy them all.. but now only Elle or Fashion once in a while... I tend to spend on books. P.S. And the explosion totally freaked me out... so glad that I don't live close to there :S

Dapper Kid said...

Loving the rolled up jeans on heels!! And *sigh* everyone totally needs some sunshine where they are lol.

The Clothes Horse said...

You make me think I need to get a bf merely so I can steal clothes from him!

Fashion Addict said...

That's cool that you got a tripod, which means you can start experimenting like a lot of other bloggers at taking pictures by yourself... Love the outfit btw!
