AA lace bodysuit, Wilfred lace bra, H&M belt

(19). Finally turned nineteen, yayy. Woke up with a headache so it was such a sore to get up. He came to surprise me at midnight to wish me a happy birthday last night. Such a sweetie - and he got me a slice of strawberry cheesecake, yum. It was quite an embarrassment when I opened the door to him with my Halloween costume on. Anyways, finally got to wear my floral lace AA body suit today. I love it, but I didn't realize how difficult it was to take them off when using the washroom .. I had to strip off a gazillion layers just to remove the bodysuit.

And my current addiction: Vanilla twilight - Owl City.

As for the Halloween outfit, a DIY version of the Maison Michel lace bunny ears (crème) - as seen on Lady Gaga and the Olsen Twins. Tutorial by behind the seams. Put together the lace bunny ears with my crème floral lace bodysuit and F21 skirt.

F21 v-neck t, Talula creme cardigan, TNA leggings, Spring boots

In love with this cardigan once again - just adore the cream colour. Purchased it two winters ago, but I barely wore it. It's perfect for the autumn weather. About to head out to Wal-Mart to pick up some lace fabric and supplies to make my halloween costume - it will be simple haha.

Marciano Susanna Corset Dress (exchanged for the Wild Mushroom colour), nude purse, Michael Kors heels

Sweet nineteenth was a fail at first resulting in me canceling the entire event, but the boyfriend being the sweetheart he is (and along with a few friends), pulled everything back together and surprised me. Dinner was supposed to be held at 5th Elementt, an Indian cuisine in the heart of downtown Toronto, but since many were either going to be late or weren't going to be able to make it - I had no other choice but to cancel reservations and all plans to follow. My plan was to sleep my night away - the sky was crying and the weather was just plain ugly. I honestly wanted nothing more but to snuggle up under the sheets. He resisted and demanded me to go out regardless - and gave me an hour to get myself ready and dressed for a night out. Obviously didn't expect more than just a simple dinner with him, but by the time we arrived downtown, everyone who was originally attending the dinner in the first place showed up one by one. Had an amazing dinner at Milestones Bar & Grill - we didn't even have to make reservations and we were still able to get a beautiful party room side from the dining area. I'm still astonished at how he managed to piece everything together in such a short moment of time. I have to say, that was the sweetest, most simplest birthday with the loved ones. Awaiting for Thursday to come, where I will be officially legal to drink ..
