you spin me right round baby right round

Hey Beautifuls!
It was a long weekend here in Canada, so like most Torontonians, I left behind the hustle and bustle of the city to head to Muskoka, our cottage country. Now, cottages are meant to be places of relaxation and calm, but let me tell you I was NEITHER this weekend. We went up to our family friends' place, which has NO electricity or hot water - there wasn't even a shower! Needless to say, there are no outfit posts from this weekend, since I didn't wear much more than plaids and men's jeans, and my hair turned into dreadlocks, as my heavily textured hair tends to do when I don't wash it. Anyways, it was an experience... but I now know I am definitely not one who enjoys "roughing" it.

Here are some more photos from London! They were taken while wandering around Oxford and Bond Streets. Apparently some of my lovely readers saw me during my trip across the pond and I do SO wish you had come up and said hi!

(Talula blazer, Wilfred tank, vintage velvet bustier, DIY men's jeans, target shoes, thrifted belt)
Hope everyone else had a wonderful, and slightly more comfortable weekend than mine!

Earthlings Are Such Funny Creatures

Hello Loves,
I am sitting with my laptop half asleep as a write this, jet lag is killing me! My week in London was absolutely fabulous, I had the greatest time! Due to wonky hotel internet, I wasn't able to do any blogging, but I tried to keep everyone updated via twitter. The shopping was SO good to me in London. Seriously HUGE thank you's to everyone who recommended shopping areas to me, I scored the most incredible finds.. Camden and Portobello markets were a definite highlight, as well as the obvious Harrods, Joseph and, the holy grail of high street, Topshop. I can't wait to post some of the pieces I picked up.
The photies were taken around Portobello / Notting Hill area.

Wearing a Topshop crop top, thrifted plaid, Cheap Monday jeans and Office shoes.
I fell in total lust with these shoes after seeing them on the incredibly fashionable Shini at Park & Cube. To my absolute delight, I found them on sale for 30 pounds at a location off Bond St, they are definitely one of my favourite buys of the week! They're so comfortable, the only time I had trouble was on all that cobblestone... eek!
Hope everyone had a lovely week, xo EV
