Hot Child in the City

What I wore for beers and nachos last night in celebration of my first ever day at FASHION Magazine! I really enjoyed my first day as an intern there and am happy to report that any major nerves I had melted away after meeting the wonderful people I’ll be working with.
H&M wedges, necklace & belt, bfrend bracelet, ring c/o Social Experiment, Jay et Elle jumpsuit, bac c/o Mary Nichols
It’s already starting to heat up here and I’m freaking out because for some bizarre and twisted reason, our place doesn’t have an AC unit! Pretty sure we’re just going to have to buckle down and find one otherwise we may not last through the summer…it’s scary to think that the heat hasn’t even begun and already I’m only sleeping with a sheet.
Off for day #2 – hope you all are off to a good start of the week so far!

    Toronto can be awfully hot and humid in the summer(unlike breezy Vancouver). You guys would need an a/c soon or a good fan.

    Glad to hear you had a great first day at work. Makes the transition so much easier when you're surrounded by great people.

    Love these pants on you, the belt accentuated your waist beautifully. Good luck with your internship and let us know how it goes. xoxo Danina

    You look so beautiful Alex! Might I say that the golden hour in Toronto may look even prettier than the ones we have in Vancouver? Lucky girl 😉 anyway, I am so proud of you and I'm thrilled to hear that you're enjoying your internship! I can't wait to see what wonderful places this will take you. You are missed in Vancouver and we are all anticipating your return!

    You look gorgeous!!! I love this look, the black and cream are so chic and put together. And honestly is there anything better than beer and nachos?! I thought not.
    I can't imagine it being that hot already!! You definitely need some a/c or you'll melt!

    I know the feeling. The AC in our building doesn't get turned on until June! Good luck! Cheers to booty shorts and bed sheets.

  23. 5.15.12

    So glad your first day went well!! We get ridiculously hot summers here and I totally feel your pain because although we have an AC unit, it doesn't work! Good thing we take possession of our house today! I can stop going for drives in my car to cool off ha! You look lovely as always. XO

    Congratulations on your first day, pally! By the looks of things, you made a stunning debut – how gorgeous is that jumpsuit? (I have, by the way, never said anything kind about a jumpsuit before this blog comment, so this is an extra special compliment. Thought you should know.) Read your first feature and it was fabulous! Hope your second day has gone just as well!
    xox,

    You often mention jewel tones on my blog, and I have to say that neutral colors always look awesome on you! 😉 This jumpsuit looks great on you. At first I thought it was a skirt, but the fact that they're pants is even better!

    Great to hear your first day went without a hitch!
    Hopefully you can get an AC unit soon so you don't have to swelter any longer.
    You look really well Alexandra. My skin is turning pasty due to lack of sun!!

    oh lovie!!!!!!!!!!! i'm SO excited for you and okay…the outfits are all stunners (as my Dad used to say when he really liked something a pretty girl wore 😉 but really it's seeing you in T-Dot that has me gasping out loud. uber awesome shares from so far so good-ville!!!! i knew you'd blast off from 1st day forward and it's fabulous to know this is all coming true for you lades.

    sooooooooooo, that heat thing, omg i remember it well and the ex used to take me ON PURPOSE to McDonalds cos you know why?! it ain't the burgers….it's their A/C – just happens to be the coldest around and super refreshing on those hottest days coming up in August. we would go hang out for an hour or so and get delightfully cooled off before venturing outside again, baha! best of lucks trying to find your cool spots but no matter what you hold it together and look amazing the whole time! ♥

    pea ess: i LOVED reading your comments Alex, thanks for all the design feedback. that was really rad of you. xo
