While most teens were out developing healthy relationships, I was at home watching the Simpsons. Hoping to myself that one day some brave designer would showcase my obsession on a garish custom knit sweater, and then further hoping that someone in China would knock it off for a fraction of the price. Slightly misshapen face, it’s not quite a Bart, but there are plenty of Borts to go around.

Ever since Melissa released her Slate Collection I’ve been fantasizing about her 3way asymmetrical dress… so when she suggested a designer trade I was relieved I didn’t have to sell my body in order to buy it. As you can see this dress allows for 3 wearable options, and as I’ve discovered maybe 2 or 3 that don’t look very wearable. I feel like I’m living in a sexy not too distant future.

**Buy these shoes at your own risk! At $50 I knew they’d be cheaply made, but I didn’t expect them to try and kill me. Tilt your weight ever so slightly off center and they’ll tip you into instant ankle submission. I’ve almost sprained myself half a dozen times in the brief time I’ve worn them.
Toronto has changed me, I’ve had to adapt to survive and now I’m actually… practical. Now I own sweaters without gaping holes and more than one coat. I even find myself fantasizing about new sweaters and online window shopping late into the night. These are my sweet sweater picks for fall, I styled them all for an especially glamorous week where I leave my house more than once.

David is always forcing my arms into practical sweaters.. but with this brand I knew it would be different. He bought an SNS cardigan last Christmas and it survives daily use without pilling or stretching. The craftsmanship and quality is so incredible, I know in a year it will look as new as the day I got it. If I didn’t see it, I wouldn’t believe it was possible to make wool so fine.
Happy Friday! Before I leaf for the weekend I thought I’d share somethin dope with my buds (you). You may remember I professed my undying love for all things
