I’m going through some very interesting changes these days in both my personal and professional life – I don’t think I’ve ever felt as alive, or terrified in an absolutely amazing way in all of my life. I am starting a new internship next week, working part-time, and planning how the hell I am going to continue to pull both of those things off with a full course load in my second-last semester at McGill. I always love a good challenge, but it’s true that both my academic and blog-related choices in the next few months will ultimately affect my future and where I end up going after graduation. After the long hours and sacrifices, all I can do is hope things work out the way I want to. I’m purposefully being vague about the changes that are coming to the blog because they aren’t solidified yet, and I don’t like revealing details before they’re set in stone.

On a less personal note, I’m also going through some sartorial changes. No, I haven’t dyed my hair mint and purple – unfortunately, my hair is so fried that I can actually hear it cracking if I’m not careful with it sometimes. Given that rather cringe-worthy description, I have refrained from dyeing my hair for almost a year and a half now – it’s way too delicate to do anything fun to. Instead, I decided to play around with these real hair extensions from Sephora which come in a variety of colours and I love the result, especially with this outfit. It’s true, they aren’t cheap, but I love the pop of colour that they give me, which I probably wouldn’t be able to achieve even if I bleached the remaining life out of my own dark hair. I decided to play around with my favourite Style Stalker piece, this gorgeous metallic jacket that to me seems to be wearable with just about anything. Yes, it may have been a little warm for a brutally humid day, but has weather ever stopped me before? Never has, and never will.
