Shopping local

My sister and I had a perfect afternoon date to celebrate my being done with the classroom: there were a couple local boutiques that she wanted to see, so we decided to stay local for everything and support yxe.

First up was lunch at what is quickly becoming my favourite café in the city: Little Bird Patisserie.  My good friend, Abbie introduced me to this lovely spot and it has quickly become my favourite corner for quietly working on my cyber while enjoying a fantastic coffee.  Also macaroons. Need I say more?



Next up was Kyla's pick, Two Fifty Two Boutique.   Neither of us had any expectations, but we both left very impressed: awesome customer service and a great selection of some of my favourite brands.



I left with a pair of Frame jeans- I have heard really great things about them and didn't want to take them off once I had them on.  Also, my entire outfit felt like pajamas, so that's when you know you've found a winner.



I also went home with a cozy kinda bell-sleeved Vince shirt and I'm quite certain this is going to be my everyday uniform.  Definitely check out TwoFiftyTwo if you are ever in the University Heights neighbourhood...you should see the Kate Spade bag collection!



Last local shop shoutout goes to something my sister found and had made for Mom and I by Earth Sisters Jewelry & Art.  It's a pendant made out of our Grandma's china.  Swoon.



Linking up with the lovely ladies over on the Blended Blog today.  Share your fashion posts with us!
