Look of the Day: The Last Goodbye

Today I bring you a look of the day shot on my last day in Vancouver. Right before heading to downtown Vancouver for a farewell dinner with friends, my dear Norma and I stopped by the Waterfront Park to try to get some photos with the Vancouver skyline as a backdrop.

The whole evening was the perfect way to say goodbye to this beautiful city, my wonderful friends, and this lovely time in my life. The sun was setting, the weather was gorgeous, location was perfect. Right after the photo-shoot, I rode the seabus into downtown for the last time, enjoyed a delicious dinner with my summer Charming Gardeners, and wrapped the night at my favorite jazz bar.

Even though I left Vancouver 4 weeks ago, with this last post and photos from my time there, it kind of feels like the last goodbye. I know I’ll go back there sometime, but for now…goodbye to Vancouver and to a time in my life that will never come back.

Look of the Day: Essentially Seattle

I am so behind with my blogger duties, and with the unofficial end of summer already here, the pressure to get caught up has only gotten worst. So bear with me my friends as I attempt to keep up with sharing my summer adventures with you.

As you may already know, during my stay in Vancouver, I took a quick weekend trip down to the Emerald City a.k.a Seattle. One of my closest cousins (funny fact: I happen to have around 50 first cousins!) lives in this gorgeous city with her husband and kids, so this trip was more about spending time with family than exploring. Nevertheless, we managed to do a quick tour of some of Seattle’s must-sees, like the Space Needle and Pike Market. Luckily, Luzma (my cousin) has no problem being around a camera, in fact she’s awesome posing for it, but this time she volunteered to be behind mine to help me shoot a Look of the Day.

I am so happy to finally get to feature my beloved cognac backpack here on the blog, which I bought especially for my summer travels. I had been wanting a 90’s style backpack for a while, and this studded one from Aldo was love at first sight. It has been my loyal companion for the past 2 months, and I foresee us living happily together for many years to come.

Thrifted Treasures

You know I love me some thrifted treasures every once in a while, and yesterday I scored a couple of them at a local Salvation Army store in North Vancouver. They are both bags, one being a cute little lady-like purse, and the other one a very 90’s small leather backpack. They were really lucky finds at $5 dollars each, and I’m so happy with them, I couldn’t wait to share them with you. So here I leave you with the photos. Stay tuned to find out how I’ll be styling them in future outfits.
