She's Dangerous


Say hello to my sparkly friend, skull face. I've been developing a growing fondness for "skullies" and it's just a plus that skull and cross graphics are now trending. The high-low cut of the shirt is perfect for wearing with any bottoms, whether it's jeans, leggings, shorts, or some fitted pants. I feel dangerous with my spiked up boots. Step aside sidewalk, my bad ass, inner diva is struting.

I love my new darlings. Who can resist studs? I know I still got it bad for them. The studs are actually super sharp. Protection weapon and style fix at the same time; perfection.

Some new magazines I picked up during the weekend. How come I've never heard of this amazing U.K. magazine, Company?! I saw it randomly at my local bookstore, picked it up, and fell in love. I wish it would appear on newstands on a regular basis. It reminds me of Nylon (another favourite) but the cute tea cup sized sister. Really like the look of this month's Teen Vogue and Elle Canada. Happy reading to me.


Weekend haul of some pretties. Excited to try out these Katy Perry Lashes, they look very flirty and fun. I use Biore Ice Cleanser every morning; it has a cooling effect on the skin and never fails to wake me up. Another plus: I have sensitive skin and it doesn't break me out. First time trying L'oreal Color Riche Caresse Lipstick in Pink Cashmere. It's suppose to go on smooth and moisturizing like a balm. I shall report back! I know, I know, another pink? Really? Yes. A girl can never have too many pink lipsticks.


I grabbed The Vintage Fashion Journal on a whim for $4.99 while waiting in line at Urban Outfitters. The best $4.99 I've spent! So adorable. Cloth material hardcover with pretty illustrations on the inside. The artist inside me cries with joy.


I'm going away with some friends to Montreal for my birthday weekend. Very excited! I'll be happily blogging from there. Hope to eat some great food (Poutine, here I come), party hard, and discover some amazing vintage shops.

Happy early weekend!

Good Intentions

There's something about mixing feminine pieces with the edgy. I'm somewhat of a contradiction. On the one hand, I'm a girly girl: I love lace, light colour palettes, and delicate skirts. My inner diva is more edgy, darker, and sexier. I love black, sparkle and studs, and anything ripped, teared, or shredded. Pairing a feminine lace & skirt ensemble with an edgy, acid washed denim vest makes for an interesting mix. It's girly with a pinch of urban edge. I picked up this structured bag with gold hardware recently, and I absolutely adore it. It's very spacious and convenient, with handles and a longer strap.

Off topic but can I just say that the weather in Toronto has been super warm of late? I'm totally loving it, I can whip out my thin but trendy jackets.

I've Missed You ♥

Hello lovelies. I know I've been M.I.A. for the longest time and I've missed you all! Life's just been hectic with school and work but I'm determined to get this site back up and running. Blogging is just too much fun to give up completely.

It's the second half of winter but guess what? Spring is coming and you know what that means: spring makeup collections and fashion! I'm especially excited for all the new collection releases. I'm a sucker for pastels and bright pops of colour; it's just so fresh and vigorating after dreary winter.

Expect lots of upcoming makeup reviews, fashion OOTD's, and hauls.

To end off, here's an update of my life through pictures from my Instagram. Pictures are worth a thousand words, are they not? ;)

XOXO
Mary
