"Did you know..."

Hey, that's the title of one of my favourite segments on a random old-school tv show, you might have heard of it: Bill Nye the Science Guy. OK... that was totally random and not what I was originally going to post about, but now I don't know what I wanted to say in the first place. That's also not a surprise.

I visited Aritzia the other day (ok, I know, laugh now at the hipster trending shopper) but I got a few great finds for good prices (!!!)
1. This awesome trapeze-esque top, in a kicker royal blue (one of my new favourite colours). It's cut just close enough to the body to NOT look like a maternity top, and has this great seamed yoke in the front and back. Reminder that I hate most embellishments that don't carry from the front to the back, it's just a personal pet peeve along with VPLs and pants that are just a little bit too short.
2. I swore I would never buy a non-Aritzia brand item from Aritzia, but nevertheless I found the greatest Kenzie top. OK, so I know you can get it at winners, but this top is smashing. It's a great swiss dot with an empire cut line. A great accenting bow in the middle of the empire "waist" and square cut neckline.
3. Random nautical navy top with red anchors - interesting gathering makes it unique, so I like it.
Overall, I was very happy - and I walked away from the mall with a great lulu wrap top that I've been coveting for a long while.

So, I guess I wanted to talk about my shopping...
there you go! As if you didn't already know - I love shopping.... now I had better go sell some drugs to make some money for all of my bad habits.

p.s. since being in Canada, I finally (today!) caught my first glimpse of FT (Fashion Television) ... I'm finally home!
p.s. I just realized that I was really good today, and wrote this post with capitalization. lucky you!
