Royal Roads In The Rain

Since returning home from backpacking around Europe this summer, the thing I miss most (besides eating fresh gelato everyday and swimming in the Adriatic) is being surrounded by beautiful, old castles and architecture. Victoria isn't exactly known for its historical buildings. But, to my surprise, the other day while out exploring I discovered the castle at Royal Roads University. Dusk was upon us and it was raining so hard that the water began pooling on the shoulders of my jacket. The castle was surrounded by an eerie fog and smoke bellowed from the many chimneys. I felt like I was out in the English countryside somewhere ♥

Wine&Dine

        Tonight I had the pleasure of dining with one of my lovely friends, Cat. Our original plan was to meet at a local Italian restaurant that makes the most delicious fresh pasta that you are able to enjoy on their outdoor garden patio... but as luck would have it, Monday is the only day they are shut. So, we hopped on a bus and headed downtown. I wasn't able to see her over the weekend so she treated me to dinner and wine at Sauce restaurant as a belated birthday celebration. 

        I finally found the opportunity to wear my new Ralph Lauren wedges that I picked up awhile ago! We have limited storage at our place. Our shoe rack is completely buried at home. I'll admit it. I had to do some serious negotiating with my boyfriend to get another pair of shoes. We came to the agreement that I had to throw away two pairs of shoes if I wanted to get these new ones. I didn't want to part with any of them but it was worth it. I've been looking everywhere for a simple pair of summer wedges. You'll be seeing these babies in many posts to come! xx
