Life Is Sweet Like Vanilla Is.

More end of school photos. Since these were taken, both Marisa and Julian have dyed their hair completely blue! It's been a while since Julian, Marisa and I were together, and I wish it could happen more often. Perhaps this summer will bring more time to hang out with friends. Warm weather and awesome pals sounds like heaven to me!

Marky Mark.

Another oldie, but a goodie! In class, we got to watch an old CK benefit runway show with Marky Mark wearing scandalous boxers and being a bad boy of the 90s. I'm not going to lie, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute... Also, my instructor has a autographed photo of Marky in that iconic ad. YUM.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween weekend. I can't say that I have any grandiose plans for the evening, I'm in my last week of classes and have lots to do! Let me know what you are dressing up as, I can live vicariously through you.

I was hanging out with Julian, Marisa and Kate that day. I had forgotten how striking Mr. Briggs was with short hair!

The Best Days.

With such a busy schedule this school year, I've got a new appreciation for the little pockets of time I get to spend with those I love. Perfect example? An afternoon spent musing, eating monster cheap sushi, drinking bubble tea and taking photos with Marisa and Julian. I have said it a million times, but I am super glad to have been so lucky as to meet these two! Friends 4EVA.

Power Couple.

Julian Briggs  is one of my favorite people; stylish, handsome, charming and witty! Sigh. I loved that we accidentally psuedo matched each other on this particular day, and that we were able to shoot some sweet photos while thrifting in Richmond. Afternoons with him and Marisa have some of my favorite since moving to this city. Thanks again Marisa for the wonderful photos! By the way, I've been living in Vancouver for a year!!! I can't believe time has gone by so quickly!!!

The shirt featured in this post was only $2! Hawaiian print is one of my loves this summer, and I couldn't believe the deal I scored while in Seattle back in April at Red Light Vintage. If you ever visit Seattle, I highly recommend Red Light, they never disappoint!

I'd like to take a moment to thank the +800 followers here on blogger, and my +1000 followers on tumblr!!! Style is Style is over 3 years old now, and the growth I've experienced in the past months has been phenomenal. Thanks for being interested in my silly little musings here at Blogger.. As for tumblr, I'm still surprised that people enjoy my reposts of pretty frilly things and super high platforms. Thanks so much, I appreciate all of you <3 I really want to have a giveaway soon, stay on the lookout :)

On My Block.

Sorry for not posting yesterday, homework likes to get the best of me.

I must say, ever since the SS11 shows last fall, I've been anxiously awaiting the rise of color blocking. I'm not sure it's really a trend, since I think it's never really out of style. I guess it's just really in this summer. Point being, I am happy to wear bright, obnoxious, solid colors all at once!

Julian and Marissa yet again accompanied me on adventures involving coffee shop existential convos, and jaywalking to do an alleyway photoshoot. Yes, we like to stop traffic. Oh also, let it be known that Julian DIY-ed that magnificent leather jacket. Delicious!

sidenote: These lovely wedges have since met their maker. After a night out, I discovered the wedge was completely split in half on both shoes, held together only by the soles. Still not sure how I did that to rubber wedges...
