FLOWERS IN FEBRUARY

So almost immediately after my last post, I went shopping and picked up this pretty floral dress from Katch22 (it was 60% off!) and a fur hat from Ragpickers. It's still freezing here, (-11°C /12°F), and maybe cute little dresses aren't all that practical, but fashion first, right!? I couldn't be more excited for spring! For someone who can't stand the cold, I'm not exactly living in the right location, am I?
Wearing vintage fur hat from Ragpickers, floral dress from Katch22, Joe purple opaque tights, Le Chateau yellow bangle.

What are your favorite online vintage shops? Also, if you live in Winnipeg, other than Hoopers, Ragpickers, and Ruby Slipper Vintage Shoppe, where are your fav place to grab some great vintage finds in our lovely city?

    I love it!

    And you can't forget about the lovely VV Boutique. (aka Value Village) :P.

    And the tights are from the Joe line at Superstore? I never thought to look for tights there.

    Wow I love that cute floral dress especially the frilly part at the bottom. I also think you have a great eye for pairing colors together.

    Are you showing in Montreal fashion week?! Hope you have a great time. Be sure to stop by Eva B, friperie Saint-Laurent and E.R.A vintagewear for some great vintage finds.

    You live in Winnipeg? What's the fashion scene like there? You're too stylish to be living in the prairies.

    For online vintage stores, I quite like http://www.theurbancollection.com/

    But I usually just by vintage things in the city.

    I'm adding you back :) Love your blog!

    Ah no I don't live in Winnipeg. I live about an hour outside of the city at one of the beaches.
    Hopefully I'll be moving to Toronto in the summer, but if not I'll be in Winnipeg!

    Thanks for the link!
