241. La Société


Today is my birthday..I didn't even realize it until yesterday. In the past few years I didn't really care about my bday, partly because it's always the busiest time of the year at school & I'm too stressed to even think about it. Last year on this day I went to Pravda for only an hour lol. This year I'm not doing anything. It just hit me that there's like 2 more weeks of classes left!

Here's a quick post before I get toooo behind on this blog..


One of my friends from Germany sent me a box of these chocolates..they're called Heidelberger Studentenkuss ("Student's Kiss"), apparently quite popular in Heidelberg. It has a cute story behind it, which you can read about here. The filling is praline-nougat-chocolate with a wafer bottom and wrapped in dark chocolate. Very good!


Dinner at La Societe last week with my family. It was my first time going to this restaurant - I really liked it! Will definitely go back. It's French cuisine. The decor inside really seemed like a restaurant in Paris.




Escargots..yum



Dessert!! I think I'll go back sometime just for the dessert. They make the best macarons.



Tuesday night I went to the Leafs vs Islanders game with my friend. Not such an exciting game..we lost 5-2.

240. Furoshiki


My Pet Boutique is my favourite store in the city for dog stuff, and pretty much the only one I shop at. The staff there are very nice, and ordered one of this especially for me - the Dog Perignon toy I've been looking for for a long time! :D
This is the large size. I have the small one too, but it's been destroyed by Hennessy. (BTW if you're new to my blog - the Chihuahua in that post, Mucho, is the dog I took care of a year ago for my friend..I had him before I got Hennessy)

So I've been thinking about changing my blog a bit once I have more time. I realized lately I've only been posting about food, drinks and restaurants I go to. It's only because I only have time to throw together a bunch of pics taken on my phone, and those are mostly what I have. But I'm going to try to cut down on those from now on and make this into more of a "personal" blog..if you know what I mean.



My dog is kind of an alcoholic - he only likes the Cristal & Dom hahah..they're literally the ONLY toys he doesn't end up destroying!




I impulsively bought this flourescent yellow clutch/iPad case online a month ago and it finally arrived. It's hard to photograph the colour but it looks really cool in real life - really flourescent neon. It looks very nice against all black, which is what I mostly wear..but I'm not really a clutch person. I'm thinking I might sell it again.


It unfolds to be a flat piece of plastic. It can hold quite a bit - it expands and folds/sticks back together easily.


Dinner at Williams Landing a few nights ago.


It's a restaurant located in Liberty Village..so this place was like 95% yuppies lol (the 5% being the table of older people coincidentally in this pic). Yuppie definition here


I got poutine and an apple cheddar salad..it was soooo good. I really want to go back sometime, just for more of that salad. The poutine was bad though.

Itty Bitty Bra | Strapless Sequinned Bra


I received a couple of these sequin bras in the mail last week, thanks to Itty Bitty Bra. I love everything with sequins so this was perfect - it looks great under a sheer top or dress.

The bras comes in extra small, small, medium, and large sizes. The brand is mainly designed for women who wear A & B-sized bras, though it fits me perfectly fine & I'm usually a 32C. (I got the Medium and Large) It doesn't offer much support so I wear it over my regular bra for the extra sparkle.

This style retails for $62.50 and is available in silver & black.

Itty Bitty Bra is conceived as the superior alternative to pricey brands or labels with imprecise sizing. Since its inception, the brand has drawn a growing number of devoted followers including celebrities such as Taylor Swift, Rachel Ray, Misty May-Treanor, Amber Heard, and Cheryl Burke. The brand also has camisoles, thong panties and boy shorts, all ranging from $16-$65, available in specialty boutiques and stores including Fred Segal (in Santa Monica, CA) or on their website.
