attracted to you like teenie boppers to the apple store

Just a little bit of casual fabulousness today. I got this t-shirt from Zara years ago, I always loved the elephant graphic but hated the tight fit and the cap sleeves, so I transformed it with a few snips (and some stretching out, haha). The faux leather skirt I got from H&M recently. It is so versatile! And I love the heavy metal zipper at the back. Check CanadaStreetStyle to see how I styled it differently.

(errks..bras, who needs 'em :P)

P.S. I put another heart in the title of my blog, hopefully this will clarify that my blog is called heatherHEARTSfashion, not heatherLOVESfashion. It probably doesn't clarify it that much really, haha, but oh well, it looks cooler anyway!

livin in that 21st century

This dress is probably one of the easiest decisions I've ever made when it comes to clothing purchases. Its shape is really lovely and I love the way it falls, plus I am always a sucker for an element of sheer, and/or anything reminiscent of The Addams Family. And all for under 20 dollars...score.
Also, I dyed my hair blue. I've been going through so much hair boredom/frustration in the past few months, so I finally took the plunge and did something semi-drastic. I actually really like it and I am quite relieved I didn't opt for the ultra-short and shaved styles I was scarily considering before...Sometimes I am just WAY too impulsive, thankfully I saved myself from major hair regret though. How do you guys like it?

H&M dress and hat, McQueen skull bracelet, Jeffery Campbell wedges, American Apparel socks, Vlieger & Vandam bag, vintage pin and ring, MAC nail colour in vintage vamp

creepers and plaid

Dreaming of back to school outfits and it's only the beginning of August, I think there is something wrong with me.

good news for people who love bad news

Just joking. This is good news, period.
 I got a job! At this Canadian store that I like quite a bit.
Don't be scared, it won't mean I'll blog less (Cause that isn't what you want, RIGHT? Better not be..) It just means that my 7-month vacay is coming to a much-welcomed close and I'll have more cash-money for super rad clothes to add to the bloggyy <3 
Note: under no circumstances does this mean I will be wearing less thrift. Just no. How could you even think that for a second.

In other gooood news, the wonderful/talented owner of the blog DontBeBlah painted this fab picture of me!  I was so flattered. I love the the details, the sunglasses look so rad!

four (cat) eyes

First of all, ENTER MY GIVEAWAY! It's open until Aug. 4.

Ooooh, i am SO in love with my new intensely sheer Free People dress. It's just sheer all the way down, and looks just as good as a skirt, as it does a dress. I can't even express to you how fun it is to wear on a windy day, it just knows exactly how to flow. I swear I live for stuff like that. I want to wear it so many ways, I can garantee this will not be the last you see of it.
So I'm still mourning the loss of Amy Winehouse, and I was really touched by Kelly Osbourne's tribute to her in her own look at Amy's funeral, so I tried to do my own little Amy-eyes-and-hair. Obviously my hair is the messy version, but my hair is always messy so no surprise there :)
And one more thing, this is by far my favourite shirt. I find myself wearing it almost everyday (I change a lot during the day..) I didn't think it would ever really make it on to the blog, but oh, hey, I guess it did.

Free People dress, random tee from brother, H&M kids shoes (haha),  gold cuff from the bay, thrifted gold chain, F21 ring, DIY headband, DIY camera bag, UO sunnies

when can i see you, can i know you, can i hold you

I seem to be reverting back to my childhood lately, style-wise. Last week it was pink hair, Baby Spice style (here), this week, it's pigtails with different coloured hair ties. Pink shoe laces are also something I have not picked up since my childhood, but today I found myself pulling these neon babies out of my old figure skates and inserting them in my newest pair of Docs. (also seen here) Oh yeah, I haven't thrown up the ol' piece sign in a picture since the epic Spice Era, either.

thirfted sweater from The Black Market, H&M dress and rings, Doc Martens, F21 bracelet, flea market sunnies

This song and this outfit go together because they just Do. Spikes. Death From Above. Yes, yes, YES.



Some oldies from in and around the Spice Era, showcasing my affinity to the peace sign...

P.S. Is there anyone out there that knows how to post a song on blogger without having to post the whole video? Most of my post titles come from songs and I'd really like to start including the actual song. Not sure if this is a stupid question, but if anyone knows how and wants to share, drop me an email! Thanks lovelies.
