flea market Sundays

The past two Sundays have been spent at the St Lawrence Market, browsing the tables full of curious trinkets, delicate china, film cameras and old maps from the '40s.

I got myself a handful of books, a clock brooch, and a pretty compact mirror.

Toronto weather has always been bi-polar. But despite the pouring rain slamming my window right now, Melody and I have decided to put together our latest summer wishlist.

Melody's picks from Modcloth:

Carmel's picks:

I'm oddly missing school at the moment, hence the academia-meets-South of France/Paris-like footwear.

Trees that bloom

Melody and I went to High Park recently to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom.

On Melody: thrifted coat, H&M dress

On Carmel: Jack by BB Dakota skirt, Style&Co. denim jacket, Vans boater hat

A couple of weeks ago, I went down to the Don Valley to do some field work for an exciting new project Melody and I are both a part of.

I went with David and Selina, and we took a whole lot of photos. These are just a few inside one of the Brick Works factories.

More photos will be up soon!

Block Party

I'm finding myself drawn to bright colour blocks lately. The dresses above from ASOS and Pearl are quite perfect for spring/summer adventures.
