weekend haul.

sunday was a pretty boring, plain day. weather was shitty, yet again but at least it wasn't raining. with the clocks changed an hour, the day was wasting away and i really wanted to do something. going by queen street, i decided to make a swing by the beloved black market, infamous for their never-ending sale of everything for only $10, WHICH IS THE BEST.

i spent under an hour in there, and tried on a handful of items. i came out with 3 pretty good buys for under $35: an oversized sweater for the upcoming spring weather, a lovely girly lace top (i <3 lace) which doubles as a vest because it buttons all the way up at the back, and a nice simple black purse with a gold chain. i don't know why but i've always loved purses with gold chains. they make me think of chanel purses, something i will never ever be able to own myself :)





also, when i was buying my h&m dress for the ballet on friday, i quickly slipped inside of forever21 because i noticed the crowds that were pushing their way through the store from the windows outside. i came out getting this top for under $30. it's a size large but i like the oversized, baggy fit of it. i looooove the sleeves. i just love baggy, drapey sleeves. i have no idea why.



on saturday i had an appointment at the apple store because of a problem with my beloved macbook. once i was done there, i decided to buy a pair of spring boots from Spring. my flats that i had been wearing all weekend long had holes in the toes and heels and if anyone was in toronto for the weekend, they know that my poor feet suffered dearly. i ended up freezing my poor feet and throwing out a pair of tights from tearing holes in them. the second i got out of Spring, i threw my flats into my purse and headed out with my new boots on, a proud smile plastered to my face.

they're really, really adorable. shiny, black, laceups with a bit of a heel and a nice, easy zipper on the side for easy access. they were fairly expensive though. $69.99 plus a waterproof/shine wax which was $8. altogether, i spent about $79 but i think they're worth it.



no more spending or eating outside for pema from now until the school year is over. no worries though. only a month to go :)

xoxo
