Although I do miss Canada, I don’t miss it’s dodgy weather. So what do I do at the first sign of vaguely spring-like weather (here it comes in January, in Vancouver it usually doesn’t come till, oh, JUNE)? Like a true canadian ex-pat, out come the shorts.

Erin Fetherston for Target pleated velveteen shorts: clearance, $6.99
old man hat originally from H&M: FreeStyle Clothing Exchange, $9
black T-shirt with keyhole and button: gift from mum
gray oversize Jacob cardi: thrifted, $5
wooly over-the-knee socks: Target, $3.99
black Blowfish moccasins (Lori’s Shoes): a gift from my friend Rich
Yeah, I did the cliche Chicago pose with the hat. So sue me. I didn’t feel like putting on makeup.






I haven’t commented here before, but for some reason I REALLY love thiss outfit, so kudos lady! I love the blog in general too. =)
p.s. under my website is my street style blog and you’re under my fav links!
Nice outfit! But don’t slag on Vancouver too much, it’s positively balmy compared to Edmonton…
Hey,
In Van it’s nice by end of March. I’ll prove it with my outfits (lol). That being said, those shorts are 6.99 adorable!
You are waaaaaay too adorable. The only probem is that I am in Bishkek and it is several degrees below zero. Looks like no shorts in my near future. Sigh.
Hey girls,any of you aware of something like “FreeStyle Clothing Exchange” in NY area?
I hate to throw away so many cothes, now that I lost weight and I always was interested in others people choices…
I definitely understand/sympathize with you. I live in Buffalo, NY. The high temperature for today is eleven degrees. If it were about 50 outside I’d probably be wearing a skirt, or some sweet velveteen shorts like yours!
Oh man, I love those shorts!
After seeing this, I can’t wait untill the spring arrives here in Finland.
That’s a really nice outfit!! Makes me want spring to come soon!
Gosh, the red shorts are perfect. Love the outfit!
love the hat!!!!
nice blog by the way!
That is adorable! I didn’t know the Fetherston line had shorts! They’re great! I wish it was that warm here.
Love the look!
Those shorts are adorable! I don’t remember seeing them at Target :/ oh well. Maybe they’ll show up at a thrift store, since they would be awesome to have :3
It IS snowing here in Toronto today! But I love it………..
at least you get spring in vancouver !
everyone here begs for vancouver springs, because apparently it starts to get warmer in february (and by warm i mean by canadian standards).
