Back to School Wishlist!


Summer Vacations are almost over (less than 3 weeks left!) and I have to say that I can’t wait to go back to school! This is my last semester before I graduate and I’m super excited about it!
 I remember when I was a little girl, my mother use to take me shopping at this time of the year so I can find a new “back to school” outfit.  I have to admit that I was a little spoiled, but when you’re a child you’re growing so fast that it’s normal to need new clothes to start school. I’m not a child anymore and I don’t really need new clothes (my closet is already full of them!), but there are still some pieces of clothing that I’d really like to have to start school. However, I’m totally broke right now, so I probably won’t be able to afford those pretty things…but hey a girl can dream!  So, here’s my back to school wishlist.
Hope you will enjoy the last weeks of vacation left!

1)      Loafers:
Loafers are really trendy right now and they are a great alternative to regular flat shoes. They can look really cute with some jeans or with a skirt. Plus, they can easily add a little edge to an outfit. I really like those ones from Aldo. ( available here )


2)      Boyfriend  Jeans:
Am I the only one to be tired of the usual skinny jeans? With the good fit, boyfriend jeans can look super hot! They can bring a little something different to the boring, but so practical T-shirt/jeans outfit. Here’s the one that I absolutely want from American Eagle. (available here )


3)     Jean Jacket:
If like me, you still don’t have a jeans jacket, well you definitely need one! This is a major trend right now and it is perfect for a more chilly weather. It goes with everything, believe me! I really like this one available at American eagle. (available here )







4)      Gold Watch:
      I already have a silver Michael Kors watch that I absolutely love, but I would like to have a gold one also. Not necessary a Michael Kors one though, just very big one with a boyish look.  Like those ones:

1- Available at Michale Kors or here
2- Available at Nixon or here
3- Available at Aldo or here
4- Available ar Aldo or here

My Day at Osheaga


Hi Everyone!

As you all know, Sunday I went to Osheaga and despite the bad weather (it rained pretty much all day), it was amazing! I was wet, tired and I almost got kill by a guy doing body surfing…but it was totally worthed. What I prefer about Music Festivals is that it gives you the opportunity to see a lot of different bands in the same day.  I saw The Airborne Toxic Event, City and Color, Metric and The Black Keys. It also makes you discovered new bands.
 It was my first time at Osheaga, but certainly not my last!
 So, here are some pictures that I took for you guys.

Have a great day!

Week 3: My Guilty Pleasure Film


Hi Everyone!
So to keep going with my 30 weeks of films challenge. Here's a little post about my "Guilty Pleasure Film". 

My guilty pleasure film is definitely Breakfast at Tiffany’s with Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard. Every time I feel down, I like to watch this film to cheer me up. It’s just a really funny and beautiful love story.  Released in 1961, Breakfast at Tiffany’s narrated the life of Holly Golightly, a young New York socialite who tries to find a rich husband, but who fall in love with a young broke writer that just move into her apartment building.

 Originally the part of Holly Golightly was create for Marilyn Monroe, but her acting coach told her that it wouldn’t be good for her image. So, it’s Audrey Hepburn who took the part. The film ended up being a big success; Audrey Hepburn even received a Golden Globe and an Academy Award nomination for her interpretation of Holly.  

Aniway, if you haven't seen it before you're missing something. It's a classic! Perfect for a girl's movie night.
So, here’s the original trailer of this film for you to check this out.

Enjoy!

Osheaga


Hi Guys!
Sorry I haven’t post anything recently, but I’ve been much occupied.  Anyway, this weekend is going to super exciting, since I’m going to see The Black Keys at the Osheaga Festival! Osheaga is a music festival based here in Montreal. It started in 2006 and has been very popular since. A lot of great bands had play at Osheaga like Weezer, Coldplay, The Killers, etc. The Lineup this year is very impressive with many great musicians like Snoop Dogg (Who apparently changed his scene name for Snoop Lion? You can read the article here ), Justice, Metric and of course, The Black Keys. The festival will take place on Friday the 3rd, Saturday the 4th and Sunday the 5th of August.

For more info you can go on the official website here and even catch some tickets if you’re lucky (I heard the all week-end passes were sold out!).

Have a good day,  
Catherine xx.
