Leopard/Horse

[Jeans, Top, Jacket: H&M, Boots: Ardene, Bag: Urban Outfitters, Necklace: Topshop]

I don't think I could ever get sick of walking the sea wall around Stanley Park. Or sick of wearing leopard print for that matter! I almost wish I'd bought two pairs of these jeans when I picked these up last Autumn at H&M, because I just know that one day they're going to end up ripping (all my jeans seem to in the end) and I'll wish I had another pair! Luckily, I have a feeling that leopard print will always be around so I'll never have to say goodbye!

Aztec


[Aztec Print sweater: F21, Jeans: Joe Fresh, Heels: Primark, Necklace: H&M]

Two of my best friends from England came to stay with me last week! It was so much fun to show them round Vancouver and do some of the touristy things I haven't done for a long time. Needless to say, I didn't get any time online, so I'm trying to catch up with emails and reading blogs, but a week is a long time in the blog-world so I have a lot to read!

I wore this to grab a quick lunch with the boy today. I bought the sweater from F21 with my friend's last week, it was only $21 and I'm loving the print!

Thief, Thief


[Men's Plaid Shirt: Joe Fresh, Necklace: F21]

OK, I admit it... I'm a thief. But don't worry, it's only my boyfriend's clothes that I've been stealing! He almost didn't let me borrow this shirt today, but I just ignored his protests (the best tactic in such situations) and he came round to my wearing it in the end, woohoo!

I've realised that my last post was the first in which I was wearing a dress since December (and even then, that was more of an oversized knit), which really surprised me. I'm totally in the habit of throwing on jeans after work or on a rainy day, and since this takes up two thirds of my time I often neglect dresses, even though I love wearing them! I'm thinking that maybe I need to invest in some dresses for the new season, so I've been having an online browsing session.  Garage Clothing's dress selection, especially, is getting me excited about wearing more dresses in the future!

Blue Skies/Snakeprint Dresses/Versatility



[Dress: Unknown (it is from the UK high street & I bought it before I moved away last July, but I can't for the life of me remember which store it is from and I'm blogging at a coffee shop today. I will update this when I'm home!), Jacket: Urban Outfitters, Pumps: Joe Fresh]

It was the perfect day for a long, afternoon walk with the boyfriend yesterday! It was warm, but windy, with blue skies (that never come out in my photos, of course), and it felt like half of the neighbourhood were out enjoying the day. In a word, it was lovely. I love the snakeskin print on this dress, which I know is totally predictable of me and my animal print loving ways, but what can I say?! Since we were on a long walk, I slipped on my new comfy pumps. I'm loving coral right now!

Print It


[Floral trousers: Primark, Tee: H&M, Heeled sneakers: New Look, Ring: Topshop]

I love printed trousers and jeans, but try to stay away from buying too many pairs, because I never seem to own enough tops plain enough to wear them with! I bought these on a whim from Primark this time last year, but haven't worn them very much since. I'm glad they found their way over here to Canada with me though, and I vow to wear them (and my other printed pants) more often!

I hope everyone had a lovely weekend, and that Monday isn't too harsh on you! :)
