I’m so in love with my birthday dress. Tank top, Snake ring, and Floaty dress, H&M Boots, Payless, Necklace, Zellers Looking at images of the Queen, I noticed a similar frock in a beautiful vibrant yellow with president Ford, and felt doubly elegant. Continue reading Floaty Frock

I need to sweep the balcony, apparently. Unfortunately, the bit behind me is not mine, so maybe I shouldn’t? Maybe they’re saving those leaves for something? I don’t know. Cardi, H&M Tank, Republique Skirt, F21+ Boots, Payless Feathered headband, dollar store Necklace, Lady Jane Watch, Miss Sixty This skirt makes me think of this song. I don’t even know why I know this song. But it’s kindof great. Continue reading Bare Legged probably for the last time this year

Embrace the pain, spank your inner moppet, whatever, but get over it. – Cordelia Chase, S2E1, When She Was Bad Apparently loads of outfits put quotes in my head. This quote is because at work I was told I was dressed like Alexis Colby, which, thinking on it, is pretty damn cool! Cardi, F21 (It has a lace back, you can’t see that) Dress, Zellers Leggings, Les Ailes de la Mode Boots, Payless Necklace, Ardene Watch, Miss Sixty I should always wear things reminiscent of 80s soap stars. Next up, Susan Lucci! (No, not really.) Continue reading Whatever is causing the Joan Collins ‘tude, deal with it.

Courier New is my favourite font. This has nothing to do with anything, I just thought you should know. Every time I wear this dress, I think of Heidi Klum. There’s this one episode in season four or five of Project Runway, where she’s in deliberation with the judges and she is critiquing this one lad who has used zippers in several outfits and she says “I’m about zippers!” in this adorable voice. I wish I could find it online, but I can’t. Sorry. Anyway, clothes. Zippers! dress, Marc New York Sweater, Joe Fresh Stockings, the dollar store (really) Shoes, … Continue reading I’m about Zippers!

Lady Jane held a wonderful event in a spectacular Old Montreal loft over the weekend, and I was lucky enough to attend, score some beautiful goodies, and overall have a fabulous time. The Goodies! Purple & gold sparkly, Vintage Avon bar, Sparkly dream engagement ring, and awesome interesting circle ring Rings! I love rings. All of the ones I chose are so unusual! I absolutely adore the two-circled ring, it reminds me of the 80s-future. The “plain” one, with clear stone and tiny points, is exactly what I have dreamt my engagement ring would lookd like! Uncanny, The purple is … Continue reading Tea & Trove

I went on a little bit of a post-cape acquisition cape-frenzy, needing MORE CAPES! What? I needed appropriate fall apparel! As of this writing, though, it’s too damn cold for capes, I need to move on to heartier winter coats. Under my awesome cape: Jeans, Joe Fresh Sweater, F21 Cardi, Onze Sweater Guard, Pop Goes my Vintage on Etsy Hello Kitty watch, over my cardigan – which is a look I think I like, even though I did it because the metal irritates my skin. Boots, Naturalizer With Awesome Cape: Cape, LuxeVintageApparel on Etsy Hat, same! Brooch, (on hat), via … Continue reading More Cape!

Tee, Zellers Jeans & Sweater, Joe Fresh Shoes, Spring Watch, Hello Kitty Sweater Guard, Pop Goes My Vintage on Etsy I went a little etsy wild, buying myself two hats, two capes, and this awesome maple leaf sweater guard. My order from Nicole arrived within days (probably helped that we’re in the same city), with a few extra pressies in the package, and this beautiful little sweater guard. I love it so hard! On this day, I went to see In Time and Real Steel with Aaron. We decided to pick movies that we knew would be terrible. They delivered. … Continue reading Movie Day!

This was a week of sleeping late and struggling to find something to wear in the morning. Hoodie, GAP Tee, Woot! Watch, Miss Sixty Bracelet, Lady Jane Skirt, Joe Fresh Boots, Payless Weeks like this often result in comfortable, casual outfits which aren’t all that interesting, but feel like sleep clothes. This is the case here. This Joe Fresh skirt is made of sweatpants material. It’s a good thing. Continue reading Sleepy

This outfit feels far springier than should be allowed this time of year, but I love the colourway! Brooch & Necklace, Lady Jane Tee, Old Navy Cardi, Joe Fresh Watch, Miss Sixty Skirt, thrifted Tights, We Love Colours Shoes, Payless This skirt was a thrift find that I immediately loved, not considering that it was wool, and therefore super duper itchy. Tucked in, it’s not too bad, but still a tiny bit picky round the waistband. I expect I can wash it with conditioner to help it soften up, but post-washing ironing the pleats back into place is an absolute … Continue reading Pleats

This necklace is super flashy in real life. Necklace, H&M Sweater, Jacob Tee, Urban Outfitters Watch, Miss Sixty Ring, Lady Jane Skirt, Thrifted Boots, Payless This picture makes me look quite stout, but I don’t think that was the case in person. Maybe it was, but that’s okay. I feel perhaps this skirt needs to be shortened by 3 inches to wear with flats, but with heels it’s really perfect. So, maybe I just need another black skirt!
