mourning for childhood

















American Apparel dress. Geox flats. Forever 21 blouse. Vintage scarf and belt. Gifted jewelry.

This is my "day after watching the last Harry Potter movie mourning outfit". It was incredibly sad to watch the last instalment, and I sat there in the theatre crying till the last credit scrolled up. I know it is a tad overdramatic, although, those that know me well will agree that overdramatic is a great word to describe me. Nonetheless, growing up I found Harry Potter to be comforting, and many times, especially when the teachers told us all to go out into the school yard and mingle with our fellow classmates, Harry, Ron and Hermione were my very best friends. While I don't feel comfortable sharing personal stories to back up the importance of Harry Potter, I do have to say, that even though the last book came out quite a while ago, knowing that there was a new movie coming out all the time, let me hold onto that feeling of comfort. I know that I still have the books and the dvd's but it's not the same. I feel like Harry Potter represented my childhood, and now that it's over, it's as if I have to grow up. Time's are a' changin'.

Who knew scarves made such handy headbands? These past few days have been heat wave central in Toronto, but pretty silk scarves have done the job of keeping hair off my face, and well, OK, the weather is so terrible that only an A/C can cool one down, but nonetheless, on any other day, they would have kept me cool.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
