It is too warm. Too. Warm. I’ve been wearing basically only easy dresses and sandals. I’ve found that my hair is long enough in the back to make a tiny bun with! I love tiny buns! I’m looking forward to it growing out completely, a lot. Buns and braids and ponytails will be worn, and I will be thrilled. The house progress is stalled. I’ve not really been home a lot, with it being summer and the out-of-doors calling, it’s hard to coax people to come over to help me plug holes in walls. Especially when I have nothing to … Continue reading Summer.

I was told a few times that my dress was ‘glamorous’. I argue that it is just a dress, but I must admit I felt a little fabulous. The fall of this fabric is pretty ace, and I love the cut. I`m all greasy, because it was chiro / masso day, and I hate what it does to my hair. I love what it does to my back pain, don’t get me wrong, but I do wish I could shower in the middle of the day. The colour is once again fading like crazy, I’m not sure what to do … Continue reading glamour

Past few photos, the camera has decided it didn’t want to take pictures that actually look okay. I decided today what I want to do with my house! Decor-wise, that is. Pink. Pink and grey and wood. Paint colours will be chosen, the fridge will be made pink, and ideally most things will be white or grey besides. I’m excited! Both this skirt and tee are gifts from my sister, which I think she picked up at Ardene, of all places. The shoes are my Impanema sandals, because I have not yet unpacked shoes. The move is going well, though. I’ve … Continue reading Rough Quality

I moved house over the weekend! It was pretty great. I am exploring the new neighbourhood and getting to know the place, thinking about decor, painting, and curtains. Not usually one for such things, but I quite like this new home, and think I may consider staying – maybe for more than a year! We shall see.   My moving outfits are all pretty laid back and plain, though I was very comfortable. Summer comes to Montreal in July, so it has been excruciatingly hot, and light, airy dresses have been the way to go. On the first, though, it … Continue reading Moved.

First day at work with two-tone hair means a slightly more conservative dress. It is also the last of my things to pack since I keep meaning to wear it and then not wearing it. Since everything else is packed, though, there are no adornments to speak of. This saddens me. I longed for a bracelet. Dress, Marc Shoes (not shown) MUDD heels at work, Spring flats to get there. Continue reading

I’m living out of one single box, at the moment. My shelf is down, so I had to balance the camera on my kitchen counter, which worked out better than expected, though I was pretty convinced it was going to fall into the sink. It’s waterproof, so that’s fine, in theory, but I would have panicked for a few before I remembered that. So, I’ve left out a set number of outfits, and shampoo, and toothpaste, and that’s about it. Fridge is unplugged, house is being bleached for the next folk, and I’m really looking forward to being in the … Continue reading Weekend, Continues

On Friday, I packed with my sister, since I’m moving house this Thursday. So soon! So excite! Need to find a new spot for photos! (Mina: I’ll try to make it outside.) I wore my F21 Romper, and was pretty comfy, but no photos, as I was exhausted and nothing worked correctly. On Saturday, I went to get blood tests for gluten antibodies! Yay! They totally mangled my arm, it looks awful. This is what I wore. Jeans, Joe Fresh Sweater, F21 Scarf, thrifted Band-Aid, Band-Aid Continue reading Long Weekend!

Jeans today. I’m tired and a bit cranky and jeans seem like the thing to wear. It’s cooler out than it has been. Yesterday I was downright cold in the evening. (Yesterday my picture also turned out like crap, so it’s just linked here instead of getting its own post: old navy dress and pegabo shoes, nothing exciting). My haircolour is fading fast. I can see bits of blonde in the bangs, which I suppose I’m not altogether against, but I need to figure out a way to make this one stay a bit longer. I am really enjoying the … Continue reading Fading

This is a maxi-dress I’ve owned for a while, and that I was the only one to love. It seems everyone else thought long is just not for me. Well, I had an idea. I adore long things, but it probably makes me look a bit short, so I thought I’d cut out a chunk of it and see what happened. This is what happened. I love it. I put a tank top on under my dress when I got to work since I realized the girls were a bit too on-show. Also the hem isn’t as uneven as it … Continue reading Asymmetrical

Finally in on the colourblocking trend, but cheating, as the colours are blocked for me. You can’t tell, because I’m not holding it, but my handbag is the same green as the glasses, and the pink is similar to that in the dress, so my glasses were slightly matchy-matchy with my outfit and this pleased me. These shoes got more comfortable, however my baby toe now pokes out the side. I have often wished that my baby toe just didn’t exist (or, that I did not have such wide feet), but especially when it pokes out of my shoes. Stupid … Continue reading colours!
