Typical Weekend

Posted on September 23, 2011 by Elaine

I don’t have many of those anymore 😛  Weekends these days are filled with little errands here and there, visiting family, star stalking (did you see my video of Jennifer Garner on facebook?!?  If not click here!) etc.

My idea weekend would be to  just trek downtown, see what we can see – there’s ALWAYS something going on in Toronto! Maybe browse the stores, try a new restaurant and catch a movie!

One weekend the husband and I were able to do just that.  It was a nice sunny day out in Toronto so perfect for strolling!

I even got him to shoot a couple pictures for me 🙂

Top Vero Moda XS
Gap Always Skinny Cropped Jeans size 00 (vintage tint – faded wash)
Shoes: Browns ID size 7
Clutch: Rebecca Minkoff (from Dealuxe)
Turban Head Band: Dara Dot Designs
Necklace:  mark by Avon (no longer available!)
Sunglasses: Coach 
Earrings: Birks

This blouse was my other surprise and lovely find from Vero Moda.  I can’t seem to find this blouse online which is strange because I saw it last week in the Vero Moda section of The Bay, a Canadian Department Store.  But I picked this up at the Vero Moda store at the Bramalea City Centre (ha, I KNOW!!  GTA folks I’m sure will be equally surprised)

My version of the “top bun”

Since my hair is curly and has so many layers in it a true top bun is hard for me to achieve.  On top of that, when I put my hair up it NEVER looks the same way twice!  I pretty much just gathered the hair into a pony tail without pulling the “tail” part all the way through and bobby pinned all the stray ends into place.

I love my turban headband, I never thought it would suit me, but I love how it looks casual but put together AND keeps my frizzies out of site 😛

Ring:  Avon size 5 (here in Canada, here in the US)

Cute inexpensive Ombre “statement” ring I picked up when it was on sale for about $9.99 (plus my rep discount!)

  • A quick reminder that Pride doesn’t stop after June. As I mentioned in my Pride post last year, I’m very aware of the privilege I hold as a White, cis, straight-passing queer woman. Celebrating Pride openly is not a risk to my safety. I can choose to whom I disclose my orientation and when. My identity is generally not seen as a threat or a negative thing. This is absolutely not the case for so many in the 2SLGBTQ+ community. ➡️ As companies move away from the “rainbow washing” of their branding for the month of June, please continue to

  • A moody day outside calls for some @givenchybeauty glamor! I’ve always been a fan of their Prisme Libre loose powder, and the newest addition to the Prisme Libre line is just as gorgeous. It delivers 24-hr matte finish, blurs imperfections, and contains skincare ingredients like capucine extract, annatto, and pink clay to purify and strengthen skin over time! Makeup with a side of skincare is a combo I can definitely get behind! Have you tried the Prisme Libre line from Givenchy? *products kindly gifted —————————————————————————— #torontobeautyreviews #torontopr #tbrcontributors #mytbrfave #givenchybeauty #luxurybeauty #foundation #skincaredaily #prismelibre #prismelibreskincaringmatte #skincaringmakeup #makeupessentials #makeupaddict #givenchycanada #magicdust
