New Specs, I Need Some.

Ever since I found out about Warby Parker from one of my favourite bloggers The Queen of Hearts, I've been head of heels for their specs. This week I found out through my Style Spy editor Erica that they now deliver to Canada, and roughly 30 seconds later I checked Alicia Fashionista's blog to see her rocking a pair of Warby Parkers.

They should seriously give her some type of commission for selling me these glasses.

So as much as I love my Prada specs, it's time for a change. (Partly because my Pradas are too big and often fall off my face if I turn my head more than 45 degrees towards the floor.)  I was going to post pictures of me with these glasses in "virtual try on" mode, but let's be real - pretty much every word published on this blog by me is embarrassment enough.

I'm down to two pairs that I think I might get - which ones are you guys feeling more? (Let me know in the comments if you're feeling brave!)

Warby Parker "Downing"

 

Warby Parker "Linwood" (Same as Alicia Fashionista is wearing above!)

If I end up getting either, y'all will be the first to know.

I Believe That Life Is a Prize, But To Live Doesn't Mean You're Alive.

First order of business: Leandra Medine is my goddess and The Man Repeller my bible. I dedicate this post to her.

Aritzia sweater, Bongo jeans, American Apparel tank, Forever XXI scarf, scarletbegonia11 @ Etsy necklace, Asos earrings & ring.

Although I will never be as proficient in repulsing the male species through my fashion choices as The Man Repeller, I chose three key "man-repelling" elements to incorporate into today's outfit:

• Birth Control Glasses
• Weapons-as-Jewellery -- spike earrings, brass knuckles/double finger ring, and bullet necklace.
• A Plethora of Patterns.

Mehhhhhh, needs more: animal prints / socks-with-sandals / fur / feathers / turbans / drop-crotch pants / clothing that looks like vaginas (and other de-sexifying accessories.)

Also, I have decided to take up crochet & knitting - the perfect hobbies to accompany me when I graduate from man-repeller to spinster. After all, isn't that where this is all going?

Trying to post outfits more often, but this week was one of those weeks where I'd get back home at the end of the day and ask myself what in the fresh hell I was wearing. Hence, no photos. Hope you all had a great weekend!
