I will be your Cheerleader

Hey guys! So I am home…drinking some ginger tea with mama because I am super sick …again… probably stress and stuff which makes me more prone to illness and catching things…

Got a surprise delivery notice in the mail … my package from Sephora has arrived (thanks to my anonymous reader who told me to call in for the UD palette!)… will show you guys all soon … I will probably do a video on that one… =)

I have been neglecting my thrifted booties but I have re-discovered them once again :p … add a little toughness to any girly floral/granny-ish shirt like this one! Actually this shirt was another Value Village find…Vintage Christian Dior and it was LOVE at first sight… totally worth $12!

oh and drink of the week: Caramel Coretto from Second Cup with a half shot of espresso (too strong with the full amount that they usually put for my liking)… so good! That discovery is all thanks to my good friend Conrad!

Well I will be back very soon…. thanks to all my readers who take the time to comment and leave their feedback … makes coming back here a lot more fun :p

Also, the title of this post is dedicated to my mama…who is my superstar … Please keep her in your prayers as she will be undergoing surgery tomorrow

Outfit: Leather Jacket: Zara, Pants: Sirens (super cheap..$10?..I wear them to work a LOT as well..seems like some of my most inexpensive items are my greatest finds!), Socks: Kensington Market (pink construction socks….so warm..love them!), Shirt: Vintage Christian Dior, Bag: Vintage Chanel, Boots: thrifted, Belt: Vintage, Scarf: thrifted

Makeup: (Eyes): Urban decay Half Baked, Homegrown (on outer V of the eye) and Twice baked in the crease (Lips): MAC Saint Germain, (Cheeks): Guerlain …cant remember the colour but its a peachy colour with very fine milled shimmer …you cant really see it in the pictures

You must have frozen outside in that outfit. You should probably look into dressing warmer if you want to stay healthy

Ashleigh said...

J - probably should have mentioned that these photos are not from today :p ... I have dressing super warm as of late and believe it or not...that leather jacket, the socks and the scarf are super warm ..thx for your concern!

Love everything! And I love that you have started to include what make-up you use. Can't always tell, but that's a good thing no? haha. Stay worm, I'm wearing my construction socks too! It's been so cold here!

Love the jacket and of course the bag -- I'm such a Chanel girl at heart :)

Hey I love you blog! I would just like to know what vintage shops do you recommend? I am just wondering bc/ you always have the most amazing clothes and seem to find all your stuff at thrift stores and I live close to Toronto, so I would also like to check our your fav stores :) Thanks.

Grace said...

Crazy, I have that exact vintage Chanel bag!

Love Grace.

V said...

Good job for liking Second Cup! My family owns one :) And yes the Caramel Corettos are amazing! My favorites are the Chillattes, Green Tea Chillers and the Mixed Berry Smoothie!

Justine (Tinytines) said...

I love the Docs! I've never tried Second Cup's specialty drinks because I hate their coffee. But you make that specialty drink sound intriguing...perhaps I'll give it a shot :) Best wishes to your mama! <3

Cute outfit!
And I think that you 've just changed my mind about Saint Germain l/s, I was thinking recently that it wasn't the most wearable shade...!
