Vintage YSL and Hunter Boots

Victoria Fashion Blog

I love living on the west coast of British Columbia. I love the trees, the fresh air, the rain. I truly don't think there is anywhere in the world quite like it. One of my favourite things to do is to get out of Victoria and go for an adventure in the surrounding forest. When exploring the woods, you just never know what you might find... like this broken down, old truck just sitting in the middle of the trees. Where did it come from?

I was browsing the racks at Value Village and laid eyes on this beautiful, vintage Yves Saint Laurent sweater and I just knew it had to be mine... Even if it was a men's size Medium. Paired with my denim cut offs and Hunter boots, I felt like I was walking around in a completely different era.

  11. Beautiful pictures! Ohh, I miss British Columbia, it's so beautiful! The west coast is much better than the east coat, where I was forced to move. I miss BC sooo much, and these photos show exactly why!
