But the best piece I found was this 80s phoenix sweater. Its got the perfect amount of slouch to it - damn, I can't wait to start experimenting with all these new sweaters!
The most ironic part of my 19th birthday was NOT being asked for ID when ordering a drink at the restaurant. It felt so anti-climactic! I don't look that old, do I?

Are you kidding me? YES you look old. i thought you were a mom blogger when i first saw your blog. hope you never get fat or youll look even more old and dike like lol.
happy birthday!!!
great finds, i'm sure they look great on you
thats honestly the most incredible sweater i've seen! from a thrift store?! hold onto it tightly, never let it go...
HAPPY (slightly belated) BIRTHDAY
that last jumper looks amazing!
Happy Birthday! xxxxxxxxxxxxx
sweaters are basically my life. The one with the pheonix on it looks especially amazing.
Shopping can be draining, so don't worry about looking a little older at the end of it. I like the red sweater the best. Happy Birthday.
Have you tried going to the LCBO?
They're uptight.
anyway, I have a weird request. I'm applying to Ryerson in the fall and I have to submit a portfolio of written work. One of the pieces I'm working on is about fashion blogs, and because yours is one of my favourites I hoped I could include you in it. It's no big deal, just a couple of e-mailed questions (your style, influences, etc. nothing personal, of course.) to add some perspective to my piece. It won't be published, and you're welcome to read it if you want. Feel free to say no, of course :)
you can reply on my blog, or pop an email to ohvraiment_@hotmail.com
thanks a lot, love. and happy birthday!
My 19-year-old stepdaughter is never carded but I am?! I know I look way older than her. I think it's because I have a guilty-seeming air about me, and she is guilt-free, probably because she never drinks and does anything foolish!
Oh, dearest Isabelle, may I call you Belle? I lvoe your many sweaters, though I have something to tell you. That "grandpa" sweater you have got, it's mine. Yes, MINE! I am Richard Nixon, former president of the U.S.A. I was NOT impeached, I resigned. And since I was such a wonderful president, and cut my time short, may I please have that presidential sweater back? Oh, and I'm up for reelection, so VOTE. Even if you're canadian, because if I'm dead and can be up for re election, and canadian can surely vote for an american president.
Good night, and good luck.
When I turned 21 and bought my first bottle of booze the cashier was so not enthused. Maybe it is anticlimactic and no one warned us?
happy Birthday !!!
Glad it was a good one...and the goodies look awesome...I really Love that 80's sweater...a lot...

I love the sweaters. You should try a thrifting suit--like a Christmas suit only better.
wow! I dont think you look older than 19! if anything, you look younger! (in the best possible way)
I love the tie dye!
You have horrid taste plus you're ugly. How sad.
Whoah, you anons really need to chill out.
Happy B day! and I'm intruiged by how you would wear the tye dye shirt!
You don't look old at all, but you might pass for 21.
I hope you had an awesome birthday.
And I love the tie-dye shirt and red sweater !
Long sleeve tie-dyes are the best, I have like, five.
You have great style.
That phoenix sweater? Amazing! I've never set foot in a Value Village [is it an east coast thing?] and this makes me wish I had.
Love your blog.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 19 BABY!
Happy Birthday!
that haul from value village looks amazing
Excuse me, Richard Nixon, but this lovely Canadian blogger has MY sweater! I wore it when I was assasanated at the Opera House. That's why I was shot, because you can't wear a granpa sweater to the opera, even if you ARE a granpa.
Dearest Hipster, or I prefer to call you Isabelle, don't vote for Richard Nixon. VOTE FOR ME!
The eagle sweater is pretty class!
xx-LJ from SOS!

I deeply apolagize for these horrible excuse for presidents, Isabelle. I, George Washington, invented this entire concept of presidents. Please, ignore them. That sweater belonged to me. I would enjoy it if you promptly gave it back. I love that tie Dye sweater, by the way. If only I was president at a time when Tye dye existed! Good day, nice Canadian. Oh, and vote for ME!
happy new year
love all yours posts
keep it up :)

Wow Isabel thrifting a sweater which belonged to Richard Nixon, Abraham Lincoln, and George Washington is quite impressive!
Haha but I do love the sweaters. Happy belated birthday!
cool stuff :)
just wanted to let you know that i think you are absolutely gorgeous and that you inspire my every day wardrobe choices and make me proud to dress out of the ordinary! thanks!
your american friend,
bree
That Anonymous person spelt "dike" wrong. They should really learn how to spell it before dishing it. Your bff,

p.s. Isabel will never get fat because she has weird county genes that will keep her skinny... forever.
