All the world’s biggest movie stars have descended on Toronto for the Toronto International Film Festival, so with a free Sunday afternoon I decided to play paparazzo and dragged Mr. and Baby Backseat Styler along for the ride. We went trolling for celebrities in Yorkville and had little luck until a certain hunky movie star saved the day…say hello to Mr. Josh Hartnett!
After our great success (yes, I equate one candid celeb photo to ‘great success’), a bit of a break was in order. My feet were killing me, so Mr. Backseat Styler took over camera duties and shot lil ol’ me instead.
Amid the excitement of my very first outing as a pseudo member of the paparazzi, I learned an extremely valuable lesson: sky high Alexander Wang booties are the perfect shoes for many activities (as seen here, here and here – yes, I’m obsessed with them!), but chasing after celebrities is most definitely not one of them. I can’t help wearing them, because I love them so, but it’s a whole day later and my feet are still mad at me!

You look fantastic! Love the military cargo jacket and Alexander Wang booties, and you can never go wrong with a Chanel purse lol. The Josh Hartnett sighting must've been exciting. Actually all of TIFF must be exciting. Does it become a huge media circus in Toronto whenever it happens?
LOVE your outfit! And yaow, yea that must have killed your feet, haha

@Lisa, TIFF is definitely one of the most exciting times of the year in Toronto. Such a fun place to be! I love that the whole city is partying. Throw some celebs and paparazzi in the mix and things get a bit crazy.
@Eileen, thanks!! This is the Balmain-inspired jacket I got from HK that I was telling you about a while back. The jeans are Hidden Hills, but not sure what wash…love them! I have and love my Laurel Canyons as well. Paige jeans in general are amazing…definitely recommend them.

Waaah, I am missing all the fun stuff at TIFF by being in Montreal! You definitely stand out from the sea of paparazzi, you've got serious style!
Tell me, how do I get my hands on those fabulous booties? Thank you for dropping by Twenty York Street btw!

Star chasing in those shoes? Girl you ROCK for ATTEMPTING this. Your feet might be killing you, but at least your look is killin'! (omg I am the queen of bad puns)
Wow, Josh Harnett! Haven't seen him in a while. I'm surprised I remember who he is. He looks great.
Oh my god, those shoes are fabulous!!!!!
I love that bag with that jacket! And I quite like Josh's glasses. I haven't seen him around in a while (not like I used to see him every weekend at the grocery store or something, I just mean out in the media).
Those shoes even look painful (but oh-so-beautiful). I wish all shoes were comfy shoes.
Love your outfit!
I went "star gazing" on Saturday and only saw some Bachelors and the Degrassi kids. Lucky you..
so much love for your shoes!!

In the first photo I thought you were out in the wildnerness with those rocks then I realized where you were! lol Yorkville is just crazy these days. Love your shoes, as always.
Omg I absolutely LOVE your outfit, especially those crazy fabulous shoes! Sigh. You look amazing.
