Fancy Pants

 J Crew Wild Flower Necklace
H&M White Top
H&M Conscious Vanessa Paradise Floral Pants
Mexx Black Blazer
Zara Black Thin Strap Heels

Judgment day! Actually it’s just the second day to our YSDN Facet’s Grad Show. Here’s a few snapshots of my outfit and of Industry night. Wanted to wear something that would reflect my work, while simultaneously looking business appropriate. Hence, why I tossed in the black blazer… although I didn’t end up wearing my blazer. Funny enough, I thought I would wear fancy stuff to such a big day like this but ended up rocking a $10 shirt and $15 pants! Event photos c/o of my good friend Quan. Lots of mingling, snacking (barely), laughing and somewhat-fancy business talking. Met lots of cool creative industry people and alumni, including my gurlfriend, Dani!

Overall, it was a good night, just not for my sore feet. Until Next time!

As you can see Ann Taylor and J. Crew can potentially save you from having a SS’14 wardrobe meltdown. I have an ongoing obsession with neutrals, colour blocking and blue. Of course, I don’t advise anyone to buy these things at full price, that’s my advice. But if you can’t wait, by all means! I say wait for them to be marked down once or twice, PLUS with the additional 40% or 50% off that price. A good shopper is a happy shopper right? I know that the J. Crew Floral Pastel Statement Necklace is one sale right now at $138 from $174…with 30% off, it’s $96.60. Still pretty steep for me and most people but a lot better than the original price!

In additional to the Crew product talk, I’m currently working on an editorial project, which includes hand illustrated images of all those pretty things.

And since we’re also on the topic about illustration, I’d like to show you my good friend, Sara Eshak‘s illustration inspired by my previous blog post that featured my Zara Aztec printed wide-heeled sandals. She’s a Hamilton-based fashion illustrator, graphic designer and photographer. Talk about Jack-of-all-trades much?
