On day 1 of Toronto Fashion Week I channeled my inner vintage diva. Wearing vintage and thrifted pieces is very conscious & chic! It gives a second life to items who would otherwise be dumped and gives the new owner the opportunity to have something that no one or very few other people have. This look was comfortable enough for the interviews, shows and networking I had to do all the while being fabulous enough to get media attention. And the best thing is that I felt great in it because I stayed true to my style and personality.

This is what I wore.

VINTAGE TRENCH COAT | 3.1 PHILLIP LIM FOR TARGET SWEATER | VINTAGE PLEATED PANTS | STEVE MADDEN PUMPS | VINTAGE FUR | BILL BLASS BELT | VINTAGE PURSE | ASSORTED VINTAGE & NEW ARM CANDY | GOLD COCKTAIL RING | BLACK TURBAN.
