Don’t Blend In

IMG_4988 IMG_4999 IMG_5024

After tonight J and I made a point to spend some time together since we have both just been so distracted and occupied with other things… Tonight we decided to just relax, rent a couple movies and stay in…perfect way to spend a Wednesday night…We rented Sin Nombre which is all subtitles but…its Spanish so I can understand it anyways….its a great movie!

I am really debating about getting a weekly pass for Toronto Fashion Week… I think I am going to go for it and even if I make it to the night shows, at least I will have the experience, at least this year! I also noticed that the after party is at Muzik =) It would also be cool to meet some of you in Toronto!

Lastly, I don't know if you guys remember this skirt…I have not worn it for a while but it used to be to my knees…I chopped it and threw it in the wash for a frayed, more worn in look and I LOVE the outcome…It is a lot more wearable now

Song of the day: Kings of Leon- Notion

Skirt: Vintage/DIY, Belt: Vintage Escada, Bodysuit: AA, Bag: Topshop (I know, its been glued to my side lately), Red Clutch/wallet: Cole Haan, Sweater: H&M, Boots: Zara

Don't mean to be rude but if I saw you on the street "wearing that outfit I'd ask "how much?" A bit too much skin maybe??

Ashleigh said...

anon 11:50 - I had to go to a couple places to find them ... the shots are thanks to J :)

CMA- I love the belt so you can imagine my excitement when I found it at VV for $3

Dylana- Yea, I just recently got into them :)

anon 5:27- and I'd say...$30 for the leotard and $4 for the skirt ...haha...actually I dont find this outfit revealing but to each their own! we are all entitled to our opinion =)

Very cute outfit :) great idea with the skirt!

I have the world's biggest obsession with Kings of Leon... I know every song by heart :P

P.S. I am considering going to fashion week, but I was wondering if I should get the media pass ($75) or public pass ( $50). What are the advantages of media pass, do you know by any chance? Because with public pass it does not guarantee you seats but only entrance to the grounds...and I'm not the one that has patience with disorganized things or having to stand.I am still debating...are you going?

anon 5 27

you dont mean to be rude? then why type the bull that you just did?
Ashleigh you look great and I think anon needs to get her eyes looked after

S said...

caylee said...

one of my fave outfits of yours! LOVE the vintage feel, the bodysuit, the skirt, the accessories, and especially the booooooooots. =)

Taylor Sterling said...

Great outfit!! My bf and I did the exact same thing last night!!!

it's anon 5.27 here - ashleigh you are great! seriously - great sense of humour - I honestly didn't think you would take offence and I didn't mean anything malicious by it either. Truly I think you always look gorgeous - I'm just too old I suppose and if my daughter (yes I have one!) left the house like that I would be asking her to put something else on!!

COME OVER TO THE DARK SIDE... WE HAVE CANDY said...

saray said...

Christen said...

Love how you reworked that skirt. And I am still kicking myself for not snatching those booties up when I had the chance!

Leah said...

That's a great idea for the skirt... I will do that too. I love your shoes.

Connie said...

back at the Rogers, eh? ;-) i know, there's a Blockbuster near me too...

I particularly like the second pic best.
i like the color co-ordination going on with it, also that lip stick really shines here
