The photo-shoot pictures just keep coming! That’s because when you shoot with Jamie Lauren, you get more than one outfit, you get outfit changes. Telling a fashion blogger she gets multiple outfit shots is like telling your boyfriend he can watch sports all Sunday. Giddiness! (Or telling a hipster there’s more than one dive bar in this back alley, or telling a newscaster about the brand new bottles of hairspray in their dressing room, or telling a shop-a-holic there’s an extra 20% off the sale price, or telling a party-girl you know the bouncer, or… I could go on.)
Have a FAB-TASTIC weekend!
Today I awoke and as usual, shuffled out to the living room to see what kind of footwear I’d be able to wear today, as in checked the weather. To my surprise and delight, outside my 5th floor window was a world covered in a thick white blanket of snow! SNOW!!! I quickly turned on 103.5 QMFM – “Vancouver’s Christmas station, all Christmas music, all the time,” and got to work on my list of to-dos – the faster I accomplished my tasks the faster I could get outside! Around noon I started hunting for winter shoes, surprisingly I don’t have a very big selection, so that I could get on my way to meet a girlfriend for lunch on Robson St. I settled on a pair of faux leather knee high boots with a 3″ heel – perfect for keeping my feet out of the slush. (Turns out a heel is not ideal for the slippery slush at all, I was slipping and sliding all over the place.)
The Details:
Wearing: Zara cape, Aritzia Cowichan wool sweater, pink silk Party Skirt, tights from who-knows-where (probably London Drugs or Safeway), boots from Sirens (I know riiight?! Who knew Sirens made such solid footwear??), Gianni Chiarini leather carry-all, Holt Renfrew fur earmuffs, cream pashmina scarf and leather bracelet from a random shop in SoHo, NYC. (Yes, I know I have short, tiny thumbs for those of you who were going to comment on it.)
Though I spent much of my time slipping around, I had a great time running errands about town! Who doesn’t love snow? Then again, I don’t drive much these days… drivers hate snow. I have a handy, though not-so-stylish transit pass.
I hope you’re enjoying the weather! I hear the rain is going to wash it all away tonight and tomorrow… Make snow angels while you can!

P.S. All of these photos were taken using the same settings, but the brightness of the snow, and the lame-ness of my little point-and-shoot camera made each photo different.
Last week on a sunny afternoon I met up with friend and photographer Jamie to shoot photos around the city. We both adore Stanley Park so we spent much of the day shooting there. The last two photos were done in the West End and at English Bay. Here’s a little peak at what we did: (The rest is to come!)

Went out last night and wore this checked trench with my party skirt and Aldo heels. This post is purely devoted to my love for this jacket.
