Anyways, as promised, my 200th post is dedicated to my shopping trip. Spent most of the day at the local mall, Rideau Centre, with my friend (and beloved photographer) Anna. I got these shoes (shown in outfit pictures) from Trivium, the gothic store. Their shoe selection is really great! Anyhoo, the curve in the heel reminds me of the popular YSL heels (although their curve is on the bottom, not the back). Know what I'm talking about?
The only disappointment of the day was that my main reason for going was to get a pair of leather-like leggings from Aritzia and they had some creamy-tan ones in stock, and they were goooorgeous, but too small. Oh poop! I cheered myself up though with a "dark chocolate decadence" drink from the Godiva store though, so it's ok hahaha.

And now onto the very exciting things: new clothes! As well as the shoes above, I purchased the following two shirts from Aritzia. I absolutely love this store and even though it can be overpriced (...aka very often but still love it) I got these on sale and had giftcards from Christmas so it was all good! They're both sheer (the pink top much more so) so I'm going to have to figure out something there. Anyways, the first is a long sleeve dark blue top with small stud detailing on the front chest part and a small hole on the back. The second is a slightly cropped (you can't see belly, it's just shorter than normal shirts but a lot wider too) lilac shirt. Reminds me of mohair (is that the right word?).
The following things are from Zara! The first is a semi-sheer (why do I buy so much sheer stuff?) t-shirt that would look great with pants or a skirt but is long enough to wear over opaque leggings. The second photo has my new jacket/blazer/thingy with slight shoulder detailing; it's a little poof, better pictures to come. It also has my high-waisted faux-leather skirt (looove!).
All-in-all, a pretty successful shopping day!
