Hey Everyone,
Today was an another relaxing and fun day for me... I was just running errands around the downtown Toronto... and ...Although my day was mostly spent in the car, I did menage to get some awesome snapshots :P .... So here's a peek into my daily life and my outfit choice :)
I started my day with a very slloooooowwwww drive to downtown( a 5 minute drive turned into 35) ..... But no worries, I entertained myself by taking pictures of the stunning view from the highway. ( Please don't try this at home,:P) ... I swear that usually, I'm a very careful driver :)
I kept my distance :)
Bored at the red lights :)
Me, trying to look "very professional" :P ( I really try hard)
" The Book Heaven"
AND
CHECK OUT THE VIEW
.... i can never stop staring ( so distracting)
After the office fun, I headed for some real fun ... the spa to get a routine facial and some girly things ... and finished of my day, playing Grand Theft Auto IV on Xbox 360 with my "better-half" for about 5 hours...I ended up heading home, high on coffee, at 12:30am and here I am .... BLOGGING :D
I know ... I'm a neard :)
Here's quick look at a boring life of an ordinary girl.
AND NOW, ON TO THE SERIOUS STUFF,

After the long drive and finally finding a parking spot... I dropped by my office( well, my profs. office). Here's the deal, I have an awesome job - as a research assistant to one of my architecture profs. ( who is incredible and inspiring woman) - which allows me to work from home and from the office. Wicked, I know? It also means that I have no schedule :) Well, here it is ....

THE OUTFIT OF TODAY :)
Today's look is just as simple as every other one ... I mean what a girl to do when, comfort is essential ( for such a long day) .... of course, TURN TO THE FLATS which I paired with my "parachute" top (well, that's what I like to call it) and a trusty pair of dark- wash skinnies.

I'm a flat lover, they are perfect for running around downtown all day long while trying to look cute when it is 30 degrees outfit. So, here's my question:

I'm a flat lover, they are perfect for running around downtown all day long while trying to look cute when it is 30 degrees outfit. So, here's my question:
CAN A MODERN DAY WOMAN WEAR HEELS EVERY DAY?
For me, the answer is NO.
As a student it is impossible for me to spend an entire day on heels, especially when my university is located all over downtown ( I'm not joking)... sometimes it takes me 15 minutes to get from one lecture to another by foot. And try crossing an entire park on heels ... IMPOSSIBLE. So my solution is flats.... cute, comfy, and still give an outfit that dressed up feeling.
What was once reserved for casual Fridays is now also for stately affairs.The look appeals to all fashion lovers, from the first lady of France to style setter Kate Moss.

SO, WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON FLATS?
AHH, CAN'T STOP MYSELF ..................
I am getting worried that I might be getting a little out of hand with my guilty pleasure - shopping online. At the comfort of my bed with a cup of strong espresso, I love to indulge in a little bit of innocent shopping.... three hours later and my order is in. I try to justify to myself that this is my wardrobe prep for the fall time and that there is no way I would find better deals later on....AND Today, it was all about Bluefly and here are my finds, LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK .... and HOW OFTEN DO YOU SHOP ON LINE? ANY FAVORITE SITES?

I've been searching for a black pair of skinnies for a while now, until I found these babies and the price was irresistible. Plus, they can be easily dressed up or down :)

You can never go wrong with cashmere and the splash of colour is something I desperately needed.
Alisha Levine Coral Silk Raceback Trapeze Tank
Perfect for going out and it would look awesome with the black skinnies.

Bluefly is currently having Summer Sale, check it out . If you spend over $150 you can get $30 off with this code: DOR162B ( if worked for me beautifully) However, they do charge shipping to Canada it was $34.
A visit to a nearby Starbucks and then a stroll in the park with my" better-half"(hehe), was a cheery on top of a perfect day.
P .S. I apologize for the "pony- tail" and no make up, lol :)

With simple sweaters and tees made of cotton and wool, Gap has become one my favorites for this season. I love their simplicity and the variety of staple pieces that they offer and not to forget ... how comfortable and soft it is. I never thought that I would wear Gap past the age of 13 but history repeats itself... and I find myself visiting Gap at every opportunity I get. In addition to my growing collection of Gap items, I just purchased this super soft cotton/cashmere blend sweater with cute little buttons of the shoulder and yellow stripes. Another purchase was an American Apparel bandage skirt which was crucial addition to my closet.
Both of these pieces can be easy worn in the fall time with a trench coat,thick tights and cute flats for a casual look( perfect for uni.) or vampy heels for a little va va voom ....

P.S. I hope you all enjoy your weekend :)
