Floral and Pastel

I went to Victoria over the weekend with a bunch of friends to celebrate my best friend's convocation.  I'm so proud of her.  She's one of my most adventurous and ambitious friends.  

I'm pretty picky about my floral patterns.  The floral design on this dress isn't too cutesy because it's against a black skirt.  I paired it with a pastel lavender colour to accent some of the flowers in the skirt.  I'm wearing the most comfortable wedges ever that I got from Nordstrom Rack for $40! Yay! They are 5 inches in height so they make me super tall.

Loves the juicy apple red colour in the sun



Victoria is beautiful.  Here I am waiting in line to go eat brunch at Blue Fox Cafe.  
It only took us a 30 minute wait on a Friday... not bad considering I heard the 
wait is about an hour at times. 


The beautiful scenery.  We came to this look out point 2 years ago for some great photos. 



My friend helped me take some photos on her DSLR camera.  For a fashion and beauty blogger, I really dislike staged photos of myself.  I guess I can't really master the idea of looking natural.  So here are some pretty photos with an awkward person in it haha.


These are my favorite flats so far!  I wear them way too much that people are starting to think that I'm one of those homeless people with only one pair of shoes. 



Thanks to my friend V.S. for the photos.  She's really convinced me to get a better camera.  


After walking through these fluffy weeds, I scratched my leg on a prickle bush and then I got hives.  Typical me..

I ate and shopped like I was on vacation.  I haven't been to the gym since my eye injury.  My body is definitely feeling the repercussions of it... things are starting to get jiggly.   I do miss the gym but thinking about it is sort of depressing.  There are still some steps to take before I feel better to go back to that gym again.  My injured eye feels better with the steroid eye drops and nightly ointment that I'm using.  My vision still isn't as great as it was before having laser eye surgery.  

Also, it's the Aritzia Private Pre-Sale season.  I bought $620 worth of versatile stuff.  I special ordered/store transfered 6 out of the 8 items I bought.  I only went home with 2 things.  I realize the sales associate ringing up my one of my special orders wrong.  It sort of sucks I have to go back to Aritzia at least 3 more times.  That's 3 more chances of buying more things...

Guess who's sick again?  Yup me. Sucks.


I've got loads of material to blog about.  Stay tuned about for:

- a Kiehls product review post
- a Kiehls store opening post
- Stila swatches and review
- Hawaiian Tropic sunscreens review

  4. I don't think homeless people wear Ferragamos, hehe. ;) Well, maybe I would, even if I were homeless.

  5. I don't think you look awkward in your photos at all, Kerri! Can't wait to see what you got at the Aritzia pre-sale. I'm staying away from there because it's always trouble ;)

  6. Gorgeous outfit! I see some colour :p If you were homeless and those were your only pair of shoes, well then you'd be the most well dressed homeless person out there :p Victoria looks beautiful.

    Did you get anything at the Aritzia pre-sale? I've only bought one item (so far), it looks like the mint green Elliot pants are out everywhere :(
