Pretty Girls

“Diamonds are nice and so are pearls,
but there’s nothing like us pretty girls” (unknown quote)

It has inspired this Post, so Le Drake Noir, this one’s for you!

In the Sexy Mile

On my way back to the car, I cut through a section of the painted alley that runs for almost a mile between Bathurst and Spadina south of Queen Street W., I stop to grab a quick pic.

Q.W. Alley #10

As I pass, I glance up the cross alley that runs north to Queen West. There’s at least 6, maybe 8 more works.  The second one on the left side appears exceptionally appealing to me. I will return to capture each piece.
