I am a twenty-something creative type living in Toronto. I love my boyfriend, flowers, and lip balm. I also love loafs. Lemon poppy seed loaf. Pumpkin loaf. Banana loaf. (I digress..)
***"A dandy[1] (also known as a beau or gallant[2]) is a man who places particular
importance upon physical appearance, refined language, and leisurely hobbies, pursued with the
appearance of nonchalance in a cult of Self.[3] Historically, especially in late 18th- and early 19th-century Britain, a dandy, who was self-made, often strove to imitate an aristocratic lifestyle despite coming from a middle-class
background."
***Definition taken from Wikipedia
‘The Little Dandy’ is the girl who was always a little bit
boyish but wanted to be pretty.
Unlike the textbook Dandy, 'the little dandy' is a smallish girl with impeccable taste.
She comes off as laid back and boyish, yet places a
particular importance upon her physical appearance, refined lingo, and
leisurely hobbies – all pursued with an air of nonchalance. She is the epitome of effortless cool
& beauty. She is all these
things, and completely self-made.
She looks effortlessly chic and put-together. She is easy-going with a dainty demeanor and worries naught, despite coming from a middle-class background.
In a nutshell, this blog is a lazy girl's bible on looking fantastic for cheap.
hearts,
Jo (The Little Dandy herself)
