0°LIFE'S TOO SHORT...BUY THE SHOES
I'm Amanda and I LOVE fashion and all things fashion related! Fashion was always a major component in my life when I was younger but sometimes life leads you in unexpected directions and I ended up living in Edmonton and working from home (usually in my pjs). This is my attempt to bring style back into my life in a fun and creative way as I try to stay stylish through my adventures in Edmonton and life in general!
