not all who wander are lost

Hi Lovelies,
Today I wandered around Yorkville, my favourite area of Toronto. Ate at my favourite lunch spot, Sassafraz and had some delicious scallops and an arugula salad with hazelnut dressing - delicious.
Wearing, Ferragamo flats, AA white tee, Vintage blazer, Ray Bans and my new necklace and ring that I picked up at the market last week.
Thank you so much to everyone who wished me luck on my first day! It was very nerve wracking, but exciting! My new closet is also in and installed and looks great. I'm going to take a picture to post on here later.
Also, you can now access my site just by typing www.chicheroin.com! I registered the domain name so now it is alllll mine!
Love.

you can go with this, or you can go with that

Hey All,
This week has been full up, trying to fit everything in before I start working tomorrow. Eeee I'm a bit nervous for my first day at the magazine, I have no idea what to expect, and to make matters worse, I still don't know what I'm going to wear!
Been running around downtown a lot lately. I'm currently doing a mini renovation on my rooms at home. I'm painting my den and adding some new furniture, and I'm building a new closet in my bedroom! There just isn't any room left in my regular closet, so I'm adding a new one, and there so many different options, I'm going crazy.
This is a very casual outfit that I wore today. Needed to be comfy while running around Home Hardware! I started off with a leather jacket on as well but it was just too warm.

Wearing Levi's men's shirt, Kain tank, BDG zipper jeans, UO hat and Limited Edition John Lennon Converse.
These shoes are basically my favourite ever. One of Lennon's sketches on the side of canvas chucks? I should've bought 10 pairs.
Lovee!

sweet dreams are made of this

Hello!
Today my mother and I went to the Distillery District, one of my favourite areas in Toronto. There was a special market going on, with some very cool jewellery stands. I picked up a lovely necklace and ring that you'll be seeing here very soon in the future. One day, I'd love to have a loft in the area, the buildings are gorgeous and I love all the cobblestone walkways.
Also I finally got my hair done this week. I love my hairdresser to pieces, and we've become quite close over the years (I've been highlighting my hair since grade 5!), but because my hair is so long, I end up sitting cold and uncomfortable in the chair for hours, so I avoid going to see her as long as I can. We both have the same hair philosophy: always leave a little root, because neither of us like our hair to look too perfect.
Mum and I stopped at the Mill Street Brewery for lunch, a place I always go when shopping in the district. If you're ever in the area, I definitely recommend it!

It was an awesome girls day out! I wore a vintage blazer, AA Sebastian Tellier tank, F21 jeans, Fender belt was a gift from my best friend Christopher, Michael Kors watch and DIY body chain.
If you want ripped jeans but are a little lazy like me, I recommend these ones that are available on the Forever 21 website right now. They come with some rips, so its really easy to tear at them more to make the holes as big as you want. Also, this chain is probably my first DIY ever, and it turned out pretty nicely, though I still have to secure the chains in place a bit better.
Hope you're all having a wicked weekend!
