Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them

Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them is out in theatres today and I'm so excited to go see it! I work all weekend but I'll be heading to the theatre early next week to squeeze in a Fantastic Beasts date. Every trailer released for this movie gives me goosebumps and makes my stomach flip in excitement. I cannot wait to travel back into this magical universe.

In celebration of the movie being released I shared my favourite Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them things, both clothing and books.


The clothing collection at Hot Topic, which is inspired by the movie, are absolutely amazing! The vintage styles are so pretty and I would definitely wear them. I'm also a big fan of some of the other graphic designs for their t-shirts and tanks. And, of course, a Fantastic Beasts wish list wouldn't be complete without books. The original movie screenplay was released today and I plan on picking it up this weekend. I can't wait to devour all of the writing. The colouring book and journal are also fun and you can find them at Indigo Books.

Will you be seeing Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them this weekend?

Fall Style

When looking at the long-term weather forecast I can see fall is definitely here. The temperatures are steadily dropping which means I get to pull out my leggings, boots, and cardigans!

Right now I'm on the lookout for a few wardrobe pieces to freshen up what I already own for the cooler months ahead.


Clockwise from top right corner:
1. Flurry Moc from Airwalk
I already own a pair of these and they're so comfortable and cute. But they're a few years old and don't look so nice anymore.
2. Long Open-Front Cardigan from Old Navy
I love my cardigans and a couple of mine are starting to show their age - small holes and the fabric is balling. I need a couple of new ones, and I'm so in love with the longer styles.
3. Midnight Leggings from Sweetlegs
Have you heard of Sweetlegs? Their leggings are so amazing! They're soft, super stretchy, long, and very high-waisted. If I could live in them for the rest of my life I'd be very happy.
4. Boyfriend Cardigan from Old Navy
As I said above, I love a comfy, longer cardigan!
5. Waisted Swing Dress from Old Navy
Old Navy introduced this style of dress, their swing dress, last year and I've been addicted ever since. I own a couple of their swing dresses and I want more! They're perfect to layer with leggings and boots!

What's on your fall wish list?

Let's be honest, there's not many geeky clothes I wouldn't happily wear regularly. I constantly have a wish list of geek items I'd like for my wardrobe.

Right now, these are my top 5 items:

Avengers Wish List

Yesterday we went to see Avengers: Age of Ultron and I really enjoyed it. I did like the first movie better but it was nice to see them focus some more attention on some of the other characters in Age of Ultron - like Black Widow, Hulk, and Hawkeye. I had mixed feelings going into this movie about the 'twins', Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. I know Quicksilver from the X-Men comics I've read. I know him as a mutant and Magneto's son. I didn't know how these characters were going to be portrayed in Age of Ultron since Marvel is not allowed to call them 'mutants'. But they were alright in the movie. I ended up growing to love Scarlet Witch. I'm excited to see her in future movies. 

Just like in the other Marvel movies, I absolutely loved Black Widow. Natasha is so badass. So this wish list is a little heavy on Black Widow items. 

 




I really need some Black Widow merchandise in my life. And how amazing is that Captain America sweater?!?

Have you seen Avengers: Age of Ultron yet? What'd you think?

Cozy

It has gotten cold outside! This week has been extremely chilly and it's making me want to snuggle up in sweaters and blankets.

It's funny because on the weekend while I was shopping with family in the U.S., I mentioned to my cousin that I wanted to live in cozy tunic sweaters or jersey knit dresses and leggings all winter. I fell in love with every knit sweater dress I saw while shopping. And that dream, cozy outfit would be ideal for this weather. I may have to invest in a sweater dress for this winter.

And of course, boots and socks are necessary with every outfit if I head outside!

I just love this weather and the cozy clothing choices that come with it!

Spring Wishlist

The weather in Southern Ontario over the past week has been beautiful. It feels like Spring! Most days I've been able to go without a sweater and today I was happy to wear a dress without tights.

Even though I believe we could easily get another snowfall before Winter is up, this weather has me thinking of Spring clothes. I've been eyeing up new clothes online and in store for the Spring and Summer season.

To be honest, I can't make a wishlist of new clothes from a site like Modcloth. The reality is, it's just not in my budget. I can only treat myself to a dress from that site a couple times a year. I need to be looking at clothes that will fit into my budget, especially since some stores at my local mall normally have great sales and have discount codes for online or in-store shopping. This is why most of the clothes I'm wanting right now are from stores like Old Navy and H&M.

I'm so in love with this print!



I also have to get myself some denim capris for Spring. Last year I was working in an office so I wore dresses and skirts everyday. Now, working in a toy store, I live in jeans at work. But I definitely would like to get something else to wear once it gets warm outside.

Next week, me and Adam are heading across the border for a day to do some shopping in the U.S. I'm so excited to hit up Target! I'm sure I'll be picking up a few geeky shirts between Target and Hot Topic. My fingers are crossed that I can find a Hunger Games and Avengers t-shirt.

I hope everyone had a great weekend! It's back to work tomorrow for me. But, it's officially countdown time until I get to see The Hunger Games!
