FIRST FROST

Oh. Hello Gorgeous! The weather here in Toronto, as you can see from this post – has been beautiful. There is a chill in the air, but it is nothing short of a crisp breath-of-fresh-air. I fell in love with this cozy knit sweater as soon as I stumbled upon it at the LF Store on 5th Ave in NYC, the sales girl convinced me to buy it – who am I to fight her off? Whilst in NYC I only got out once – and it was my  second last day. I was pulling my hair out from being so busy – I needed a little “me” time and took to the streets with my camera and wallet. I did all my damage at LF. I didn’t even bother going anywhere else. The tuxedo back of this white knit is my ultimate favorite feature – I have been searching for the perfect knit and gasped when I found it. Definitely a new added staple. Welcome home sweater.

These days though, I have been channeling my inner nerd – work is beyond insane, BNO is fabulously insane, and my Tortuous and Blonde glasses happened to arrive just-in-time to perfect, the very [insane] nerd-esq look. – I couldn’t help but mix textures in this outfit though, the massive [8ft] angora scarf, the polka-dot razor back, the ultimate teal JBrand coated pants and the velvety hunter wedges tops it all off. AH, alas – this is such a Sunday staple for me, even on a Sunday, heels are on my feet.

Other than the above rambles – there isn’t much of an update on my end, work, design, work, rudiger, wine! I hope you all enjoy this upcoming weekend and get some much needed me time in, and don’t forget to snuggle your little Rudiger!

    Heels on a Sunday, and wedges, no less. You’re a girl after my own heart. I wore 6″ heels today! As for LF, I can relate, it’s hard to walk out empty-handed!
