Caillianne- Blue Crush + Smurfette






Dress- Blue (no label) vintage dress from Housing Works in New York
Head piece- Fake flowers from the Dollar shop made into a headband
Purse- Vintage Chanel bag from Chelsea Flea Market in New York
Shoes- YSL denim heels (borrowed from Chloe) from YSL store in NYC

The Look: Blue Crush + Smurfette

Fun Fact: I got this dress at Housing works and it had no label on it whatsover... but I have a feeling it is Thierry Mugler or YSL. It has so much stitching detail on the side panels. The shoulders also have massive shoulder pads built in it. I shortened it because it was way past my knees and needed a little update! I love how loose and light it is because it has been sooo hot lately here in Toronto!

Samantha- Abba + White French Poodle






Jumpsuit- Vintage white jumpsuit (no label) from Hell's Kitchen Flea Market in NYC
Shirt around waist- Sonia Rykiel top that my Mom got in the '80s from a store called Creed's in Toronto
Earrings- Flower earrings (no label) from Centerpoint Flea Market in Toronto
Glasses- Vintage Alain Mikli earrings from Heritage Antique Show in Toronto
Bag- Marc Jacobs bag from Godmum
Shoes- TopShop Wisteria heels from Jonathan and Olivia store in Toronto

The Look: Abba + White French Poodle

Fun Fact: This is now the second time I've worn all white!!! It's a lil' challenge for me to wear all white. My Mom got this Sonia Rykiel wrap in the late '80s that is around my waist. It's only one layer and there's no neck hole, so it's only meant to go around your shoulders or waist.. I've never seen anything like it! We picked this white jumpsuit up at Hells Kitchen Flea Market a few years ago when we were really into Edwardian clothing (clothes from the early 1900's). This jumpsuit was in such good condition. Believe it or not, I think they used to be men's pyjamas!!! haha

Shoes- Vintage (no label) from Penny Arcade in Toronto

Fun Fact: We love how Danielle layered two vintage slips and made them look so chic! It reminded us of John William Waterhouse's Ophelia painting. Waterhouse is also well known for The Lady of Shalott which is sooo amazing! Have you ever wished that you could own any painting you ever wanted from a museum? Well, we would want a Waterhouse hands down!!!
