not sure if i told you, but us vancouver fashion bloggers are throwing a clothing sale next month.  so i’ve been spending my extra time (ha! what “extra” time?) sorting through my clothes deciding what to sell and what to continue to hoard keep. if you have a company that would like to collaborate with our vancouver fashion blogger clothing sale, please let me know!  we’re gladly accepting sponsors and donations, it’s a great chance for exposure.  we’re all going to tweet, facebook, blog, pinterest, and instagram the crap outta this one ๐Ÿ˜›  pencil us in for march 17th, more deets coming your way next week!

despite a chocolate hangover, adam and i had a nice february 14th.  we are pretty low key about it, just went for a nice dinner with my cousin and his girlfriend and we were supposed to see the vow afterwards, but dinner ran a little late.  not to worry, i’m forcing poor adam to take me to the vow tonight instead!  how was your valentine’s day?  did you get spoiled?

    That event sounds so great, I don't think we Torontonians have a fashion blogger community like you do. Or maybe we do and I'm just not tapped in. Best of luck with the sale!

    Ah I love this!! You look beautiful pal, that cobalt blue is so pretty on you and I'm loving all the stacked neon bracelets. I took a quick peek in my closet and actually realized I may have some things to get rid of – I'll get in touch with you ladies and see if there's still some room! Let's hang soon girl ๐Ÿ™‚

    Hurray for the clothing sale! I definitely have to do another sort through my closet to make sure that I'm parting with everything that I, you know, haven't worn for several years but continue to hoard ๐Ÿ™‚

    I absolutely love your sheer cardi in this post, I do hope it stays in your closet for a long time- so gorgeous.

    Omg that cobalt blue is amazing! I love that's sheer so it's lightweight and you can just throw it on anything and it becomes instantly chic. Simple, yet humbly striking. Love!

    Ohh you're looking amazing in this neon 'splashed' outfit, Alicia! You should wear cobalt blue more often. I like all the details in the accessories as well – the leopard belt, colored bracelets, flashy nail polish. Lovely lovely outfit, one of my favorites!
