Top Knot (Lilyanne Nguyen)

It’s Halloween and admittedly, I’m not a big fan. I did make an effort at work and channelled my inner Wednesday Addams, but let’s be honest: aside from the braids, this isn’t far off from how I usually dress. As a side note, this Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick in Slayer from Sephora is everything.

While everyone else is getting ready to go out tonight, I plan to stay in with Maximus, order takeout, and watch scary movies. To my fellow introverts, let us unite! Not actually, of course—just metaphorically.

In more fashion-y news, I’ve been toting around this Status Anxiety’s Distant Lover bucket bag from Pursebox pretty much every day since I got it (also seen here). It’s a tad smaller than I’d normally carry, but it fits all of my essentials perfectly, not to mention I’m a sucker for anything that’s made of buttery-soft leather.

For those wondering what and who Pursebox is, Pursebox is a newly launched online handbag boutique that specializes in designer purses in Canada. They provide a wide selection of beautiful high-quality leather bags curated specifically for the Canadian market, and includes their own house brand as well as other brands like Status Anxiety, Lancaster Paris, and Marcia Made It. Be sure to check them out.

Anyway, regardless of how you spend it, I hope you all have a fun and safe Halloween. I know Maximus and I will.
