Hello Darlings,

Whenever watching Gossip Girl, I obsess over Blair's headbands, which are fun and add so much to otherwise boring hair styles. Headbands are also a life saver when you're at war with your hair dryer and lose... One way or another, I love headbands .... DO YOU?

This is me playing dress up in my room, wearing an H&M headband and high waisted skirt with my striped knee socks from Miss Sixty. I love the preppy school girl look, and I especially adore how Blair does it in Gossip Girl.

 

On another note, I was excited to meet fellow bloggers at Bloor Street Diner last Sunday. It was a wonderful day and a highlight of my week. Girls just want to have fun, and we did!

 

Special THANK YOU to Anthea from Clothes Line Finds for organizing the event. Thank also to Ashleigh from Rantings of a Fashion Addict, Danielle from Final Fashion and S from Modern Guilt.

Hello Darlings,

Fall is my favorite season so I try to get out as much as possible and engage in innocent fun such as spending my afternoon in the park walking Johnny ( my doggies name) ... Canadian autumn can be magical.

Bloglovin' - Follow my blog with bloglovin´ - yup I decided to give it a try.      

7. I had my first burger two months ago... and I am 20 years old.

Hello Darlings,

One of my favorite blogs, Your Everyday Style featured WithLoveGabrielle as an Image of the Moment. Thanks a million to the lovely TINA. And as for my weekend, I wore this Maggie Ward dress with adorable Givenchy floral tights for a dinner date with Andrew on Saturday... :)

On Friday, we also went climbing, and I finally bought climbing SHOES. Yup, we are equipped to explore wilderness when the time is right. I am so excited to take it outside, that we committed to climb twice a week.

I love the thrill of rock climbing, but the downside is HAND BLISTERS and KNEE BRUISES. Last week I got a blister and freaked out. So now I obsessively moisturize and do a mani pedi after climbing. AM I TOO GIRLY FOR THIS HOBBY ? I mean, I climb in purple outfit with a purple bow headband ... all I need to do is powder my nose between the climb...

VOGUE = KAPUT? Also, I bought Vogue and In Style last week, and realized how much I don't like Vogue anymore. I used to " worship" the magazine, but all it is now is designer ads that you have to pay to see. There's nothing to read. AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO FEELS THIS WAY? But there's a bigger reason why this was my last issue. I am a big animal lover and humane society volunteer. AND I strongly disagree with Anna Wintor's Vogue fur spreads, pro-fur editorials, and refusal of paid ads from animal protection groups. PETA member Pink sent a handwritten letter to Wintour, urging her to drop fur promotion in her magazine.   I also bought In Style and loved it. I loved this photo spread photographed by Pamela Hanson and styled by Elizabeth Stewart, featuring Lori Loughlin and Shanae Grimes - from the new 90210. Although I am not that in love with 90210 ( I did adore the old version), I do love this photo spread :)

I don't share my clothes with my mom. DO YOU?

Hello Darlings,

STRESS + SHOPPING = MORE STRESS

Shopping is a stress reliever, but realizing what I spent this month makes me feel even more stressed out. So I got to thinking, most women love to shop, but to what extent? Is it fun or is it really an addiction? I decided to do a little research and here are some of the facts that I found:

On a completely different note, I went to the Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Pittsburgh Penguins hockey game. I love going to the hockey games - always lots of fun :)

Earlier that day
