There comes a time during a Toronto winter when looking out the window in the morning is like Forrest Gump and his box of chocolates; you just don't know what the h -e- double- hockey -sticks you're gonna get. Baby-dolls, this is that time. It may not always taste good, but you're gonna have to get dressed anyway. The question is, what do we wear ? I say, try something like this.
On this day, it was fog and Vanessa, a hair stylist at Yorkville's Earth Salon, brightened up the Annex in this hot number. Inspired by fashionistas on the edge like Agyness Deyn and Alexa Chung, V owns the look like only she can. Doc's are most defiantly back (in case you didn't get the memo). Vanessa picked hers up secondhand in Kensington Market along with her leather jacket and shades. She purchased her zippered acid wash skinny jeans at Urban Outfitters while the Balinese scarf is a souvenir from her travels in Australia. Her hat and zip-up, both by Element, are "borrowed" from her roommate who represents the brand. ( It just so happens that one of my BFFs and my favorite artist Juliana Neufeld is the first Canadian Advocate for Element and you can check out that awesomeness by clicking here) Represent.

In driving school they said never to shine your brights in the fog. But who cares, we were on foot and some people just can't help but shine (even while hungover). She's not famous, but I'm thinking she's a star. Thanks Vanessa!

Amy!
Did you notice the pink poster on the telephone pole behind and to the left of Vanessa?
It says "Hot".
It very accurately sums-up your writing, your photo and, of course, the lovely Van S aah!
W e double hocky sticks done.
Great post Amy! I love the composition of your photograph. The colours and signage look great in contrast to Vanessa's black outfit and colourful scarf!
