Hello from Toronto!


This post is really all about the pants. They are floral. They are capris. They are cray. I figured it was best to keep the rest of the outfit simple and let the pants do they talking. Theyre Betsey Johnson and I got them at Kind Exchange on Queen St. W. in Toronto. Kind Exchange is like a consignment store but they give you money or store credit up front instead of when your item sells so I sold some stuff and got these pants for FREE. Dont they look ridiculous on my floral couch??Never in my life would I have been caught dead wearing capri pants because they remind me of middle-aged ladies and shopping in the Reitmans kids section in Grade 4. But my tendency to cuff every single pair of pants has given way into an obsession with flood pants and now Im dabbling in capris. Life is like a box of chocolates, my friend. Also, I wanted a pair of floral pants that wasnt from H&M or Urban Outfitters so these kind of fit the bill perfectly. It totally sucks that Betsey Johnson declared bankruptcy and I hope she is able to find some financial backers because Betsey in a fashion institution and all of her clothes are so fun and wearable.The first outfit photo (photocred to Haley Mlotek) was taken in the WORN Fashion Journal offices because Im officially a "wornette," interning with the Publishing department and basically getting the word out that WORN is an awesome magazine. Remember when I covered Toronto Fashion Week for WORN last year? That was fun. Anyways, Ive also been doing a lot of writing and an article about my pathetic job search was published on the Toronto Standard called "Where Have All the Paid Jobs Gone?" Its wistful and frustrating and you should read it if youre a creative young person because the chances are disturbingly high were in the same boat.
