Not So Clueless
style
Plaid isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you think of going out on the town, but an unexpected pairing of plaid, and a cutout crop? Perfect. Plus, it calls to mind my favourite nineties film character, Cher, from Clueless. Throw on a black leather jacket and you’re good to go.
Miaow!

Pile on the trends

Tonight we are heading to a show at C’est What, to see Rosie and the Riveters. I’m planning to put into action all the things I keep seeing when I open my browser or a magazine: hats, lace up boots, lace apparel for fall, distinctly lined eyes, … and ponchos. A little bit mod, a little bit Mountie.
Can she do it?! Here come the inspiration pics:
Stay tuned for an update on whether the mission was successful. * Obviously, this is tongue in cheek, because we all know – I dress for myself.

Who doesn’t like options?
Granny’s Closet
style
I have a great vintage dress, straight out of Granny’s wardrobe. In fact, it’s hand made by her with pleats down the front and a tie neck. Smocked sleeves and a belted waist. Buttons up the back and a coral and blue flower print on black.
Never fails- it’s a dress that gets noticed. Paired with modern accessories it totally works.
Night at the Museum – With Cairo
Indulge, style
On a chilly Friday night, after a long week of going out every evening, we had the chance to go see our friend’s band, Cairo, play at the Royal Ontario Museum. The ROM opens its doors for evenings of live music, food and drink, all whilst enjoying the fossils, gems and artifacts, where people come to see and be seen with the art and culture from seven until the wee hours.
The ROM’s historic building
Staircases encircle pieces of the past. This Totem Pole soars to 4 storeys.
Date night (with awesome guestlist – Thanks, Caitlin!).
Lit up for a night of exploring.
The DJ preps the crowd – Sanga Genesis.
Food stations, bars and a maze of flavours to experience were all interwoven with the exhibits.
In the band’s green room, someone had left their skeletons out.
Just hanging out with the zebra – my fave animal.
The bison is faux-chewing, while the rest of us are doing the real thing.
Our talented friend plays electric violin and adds her dreamy voice to the sound of Cairo, which is consequently – one of the most attractive bands I’ve ever laid eyes on. Their music filled the space and drew a crowd, and was followed by diverse acts such as DJ Sanga Genesis (clever!) who spun tracks that had our booties shaking, and downstairs in the main hall (beneath the brontosaurus skeleton) there was a live brass oldies band, Oldies 990.

A beautiful sonic moment
“With You” – just released in music video form. Chills.
Food included naan and butter chicken wraps, deconstructed sushi (served ironically beneath manatee and sharks in the sea life display area), mac ‘n cheese sandwiches, ostrich burger, beet burger, Indian tacos… and a whole host of other incredible nibbles. If you can get out to the ROM this fall/winter to soak up some of this fun… do it!
The space was filled with people, but the sheer expanse of the floor plan allowed us all to mingle and move freely.
Sushi served under the sea… creatures.
In his best party lighting.

The crowd was loving the dance floor

Great views.

New digital touch screens allow you to get more info on each of the specimen.
Or you could play Indiana Jones and take photos (sponsored by Ford) of yourself all decked out for adventure.
Check out Cairo’s new video… it’s a good one!
