Hat: Ebay $5, Coat: Suzy Shier $30, Sweater: Forever 21 $15, Pants c/o Bootlegger, Doc Martens: $140, SCarf: Garage $3.75 (!!), Gloves: Urban Planet: $1.50, Bracelet (Skull): UrbanPlanet $2, Bracelets (Rest): Made by me!! 

Welcome to 2014 ladies and maybe some gents!!!! I hope everyone had a good New Years mine was good although I find the celebration a wee bit overrated. I have a two new resolutions I would like to share with everyone and I would absolutely love to hear yours.

1. Post at least twice a week!!

I really really want to blog more, I am getting  re-obsessed with it and fashion. I have a very heavy course load this semester but I bought a awesome agenda from Chapters so I am going to schedule in time to take photos and edit each week (sounds organized eh) so two posts a week is totally totally doable. Everyone who goes to school/works and posts multiple times a week, you guys are awesome.

2. Get in shape

I am so lazy when it comes to this!! I will run occasionally but its so spaced out I never get into a good routine so I really want to have a set amount of times a week that I exercise. I missed the dreaded freshman fifteen last year when I started uni but at this year a couple of extra pounds have crept up so I have been slowly getting rid of those(I kind of want to do a video on how to eat healthy at school :)) but I need to start exercising!!

In general I think I just need to become more organized which is a definite stretch for me since I am probably the messiest, spaciest person ever, now onto the outfit!!! It was -21 when I marched my boyfriend out to take these outfit photos yesterday which is beyond cold hence the reason I am wearing gloves. I got this awesome bad hair day hat on ebay after seeing Zoella on youtube wear one and I just had to have it. I generally wear hats when my hair is not looking to clean (I hate washing it) so this just seemed perfect. I dont know how I ended up on the Bootlegger PR list but they are a incredibly nice company so I am very thankful for their generosity. For christmas they sent out $40 gift cards which shocked the crap out of me when it arrived since I had no idea it was coming. I went to the store in my city recently and I found these awesome burgandy pants that I am obsessed with. I didnt have a single pair of coloured pants (tragic I know) so it was a match made in heaven plus they fit me super well for having a flat behind, an added bonus was they were on sale for $19!! I am definitely debating going back and getting some in the other colours. I hope everyone is having a great weekend and gearing up for school, mine starts on monday bahhhhhhh!!

Careless And Young, Free As The Birds That Fly

Coat: Garage: $25, Sweater: Urban Planet $12, Leggings: Forever 21 $6 (Black Friday Sale!!), Socks: Bluenotes: $5, Doc Martens $140, Hat: Ardenes $7

I cant say I ever thought I would be wearing printed leggings but here there are and I absolutely love them!!! This is a very casual outfit, my bf took these photos for me the day before I came back home for my Christmas break. I got these leggings from Forever 21 during there cyber monday sale so i got them 50% off the sale price which was fantastic!!!!! I am definitely more bottom heavy so the fact I am wearing a busy print on my legs is pretty shocking, but I really do like the diamond print so that won me over. Forever 21 leggings are actually surprisingly thick for how cheap they are, my only complaint about them is I should have ordered a size down because there bloody baggy on my waist but that is my own fault. I absolutely love this coat, I also ordered this on Black Friday since it was about 70% reduced (woooo for sales!!) and I love the leather sleeves with the nylon center, its definitely different from anything else I own. I hope everyone has a great Christmas!!!!

I Want You Not Somebody

Sweater: Stitches $15, Scarf $5, Hat: Ardenes $7, Leggings: ?? (super old), Socks: Ardenes $4, Boots: Value Village: $15

Hi guys!!! I have been really motivated to keep up with my blog since I have failed miserably at it for the last year or more so I want to thank you so much for sticking around!! I made a schedule so there will be regular updates hopefully twice a week :). Almost my entire outfit is from one store which is kindof funny but I have been shopping there alot lately, I think I need to branch out to other places. Stitches can be super hit and miss, my canadian girls will know that but the one in my city just had some of the cutest fall stuff ever, I couldn't resist the sweaters!! My boots are probably one of my favourite thrifting finds I have ever found and that is saying alot. I went shopping with my friend for her halloween costume at Value Village and when I saw these hanging on the rack I knew I had to have them. I have very big feet (size ten or eleven) so finding a nice pair of boots my size at a thrift store almost never happens!! I find most boots no matter where you buy them last only one season so I would much rather spend $15 bucks then $150 for the same quality of boot plus these ones are actually real leather, um score!! I hope everyone is having a wonderful day and I will talk to you again shortly :)

P.S I through in the last photo as a blooper shot, it was so cold when my bf took these photos today!!!
