I got home from Montreal last night after a wonderful little (extended) weekend there, I took a few photos and will post them in the next few days to give you a taste. It really is a gorgeous city, the architecture is what killed me, I`m a sucker for old stone buildings and copper roofs. I spent the majority of Saturday just strolling around getting (purposefully) lost and imagining myself living in the cutest little apartments!
I did a fair bit of window shopping, but was able to flex my restraint muscles quite well and only caved on a few perfect items, one of which is this sweater. I know, it`s taupe. Surprise, surprise. I even had a conversation with myself (in franglish!) in the change room to try and talk myself out of it but then it just said `Louise, Je suis beau. Vous avez besoin de moi.` and that was it. SOLD! And I`ve barely taken it off since, parfait!
Sweater: Urban Outfitters

Lovely: Discovering new places and falling more in love with traveling! From meeting new people to trying exotic food to the rush that you get when you`re taking off on a plane, I love it all. I can`t wait to continue to explore and have adventures... and there are many more on the horizon! Yay!

I'm glad you had such an awesome time! Traveling is so amazing, and you always come back so refreshed. And that sweater looks fab :) I think everyone has that one color they are drawn to; for me, it's grey!
ReplyDeleteYou look so comfortably chic! Your hair is so long and pretty. Nice to hear someone else talks to themselves while shopping. I was starting to think I was was going nutso! ;-)
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good trip!! Isn't Montreal beautiful?? I love just wandering around looking at everything! Unfortunately I think we are cancelling our trip there this summer... bummer! Maybe this fall instead. And you can never go wrong with a basic that you really really love! And I love the little conversation you had with the sweater! Haha, yer cute.
