The Cambridge Satchel Company

The Classic 13" - £78.00

The Cambridge Satchel Company's old school satchels have been on my list for quite a while, but I didn't purchase this until now because I couldn't decide on the size.

I found this old school satchels a few years ago when I was really into briefcase satchels (actually still am now). This is my alternative affordable version of the Proenza Schouler PS1 and the Mulberry Alexa. There are lots of sizes to choose from (11", 13" 14", 15") and I was debating between rather to get 13" or 14".

In the end, I got the classic 13" in red to accessories my black, grey and white wardrobe. Now I have to wait 30 days for my genuine Cambridge Satchel to be handmade and 2-3 days for it to ship to Canada.

Equipment Signature Blouse


Equipment Signature Blouse
$207.00
100% silk

The perfect silk blouse for summer and fall, its available in an array of beautiful colors. I really love the pocket detail and the tailored shape of the blouse, its the best one I've found so far. I would love to purchase it in both white and nude (my new color). I might have to wait a while to get it though cause there is so much things on my list to get, but this is definitely on my summer/fall wardrobe list.

Osteria Ciceri e Tria





Osteria Ciceri e Tria
106 Victoria Street
Toronto
(416) 504-1992

http://osteriacicerietria.com/

(per person)
5 Antipasti ($15)
5 Antipasti + Primo ($23)
5 Antipasti + Secondi ($28)
5 Antipasti + Primo + Secondi ($35)

The whole menu changes weekly and the antipasti consist mainly of seasonal, bite-sized morsels of fish, meat and vegetables. Me and my friend tried the 5 Antipasti + Primo for $23 combo on that day. The Primo is a list of six ever-changing handmade pasta, I chose the Capunti salsicca e carciofi which is made of handmade capunti with sausage ragu and artichoke. While I really enjoyed the pasta, as it was different than what I normally eat, the dish itself was incredibly bland and not that tasty.

I also ordered the Decadent Dolci for dessert which is a flourless dark chocolate hazelnut cake with sauce which I ate all by myself. It taste similar to the chocolate lava cake I had in Terroni except this one is not soft on the inside. I really enjoyed eating the dessert as I have a heart for anything sweet.

I had really high expectations for this restaurant when I saw the funky and laid-back Italian warehouse interior and especially after I read reviews about it on my favorite japanese blog. I was kinda disappointed about the taste of the pasta but I was happy with the antipasti and dessert.

Yoshiko Creation Paris


Yoshiko Creation Paris
Black earring
23,100 = Around $263CAD

Something I really wanted to get after I saw the Go Away Music Video by 2NE1. They wore it all the time during their promotion period last year. I have been trying to figure out what brand it is for more than half a year and just when I have given up any hopes. Around a month ago, i found out from a blogger that the earrings are made by a independent label in Japan called Yoshiko Creation Paris.

The picture above was a pdf I made for my mom to bring to Japan with her so she could help me get it. Although she has already canceled her trip to Japan, I'm still going to get the earring. I might post pictures of the real thing later when I receive it.
