Bright Tights

This is what I wore on my way to get my hair did on trip #2! Dress, H&M Cardi, Joe Fresh Tights, We Love Colours (bottom) & Betsey Johnson (top) Booties, gift from my sister Lips, MAC Girl About Town Honestly, this lip colour can make any outfit fabulous. Though I did get stopped in the metro by a man who wanted to know about my tights, the rest of it for me is a bit ho-hum. I need to buy things! Continue reading Bright Tights

New Hair

My first new hair outfit is always boring, to showcase the awesome of the hair. Cardi, Dress, & Tights, Zellers Watch, Target Sweater Guard, Trove. Hair by Alexandra Apple (www.aisforapple.me) My hair’s been like this for a few weeks now (I update in advance). Alex stopped me on the street one day and gave me her card, saying she liked my style (which is probably the coolest thing that’s ever happened to me) and since Chop Shop is seemingly defunct, I thought, why not! The worst that could happen is my hair will get fried by some amateur. I looked … Continue reading New Hair

Accidental Hiatus

Whoops! I took a few days off. Did you miss me? Say yes. You didn’t. Oh well. Jeans, Joe Fresh Tank, Republique Cardi, Zellers Watch, Hello Kitty chucks, Chucks. These shoes are fourteen years old. This was a lazy weekend outfit, and guaranteed I was comfy. What have I been up to? Went to see The Raid: Redemption, which was totally excellent, The Hunger Games, which was not, John Carter, which was in between. Watched some movies at home (Alien Opponent, so so good!), got my hair did (so fantastic!), celebrated by good friend‘s birthday, painted my hallway (pics soon … Continue reading Accidental Hiatus

Bachelorette do!

So many weddings coming up! (Not mine.) Dress, H&M Tights, Simons Shoes, Rocket Dog ‘Greta Girl’ Also, this might be your first look at my new glasses. They’re so cute, aren’t they? I love them loads. I bought this dress for the Bachelorette outing of one of my oldest friends – we met in primary school. She’s travelled the world, now, and while she’s settling down a few hundred kilometers away, I’m pleased she counts me among those close enough to celebrate her soon-to-end singledom. We dined at Suite 701, where I tried to be careful about glutening, having the … Continue reading Bachelorette do!

March Beauty Box Round-Up

I get a bunch of these beauty boxes. Here are the March ones! Products: Glossy Box Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion, Full sixe Bailey Cosmetics Duo Foundation Powder, Full size Pandora Blush in St Tropez Sebastian Re-Shaper Hairspray Algemarin Foam bath Evian Brumisateur Spray This is my first Glossy box and it’s alright. The Blush is fantastic, and I love love love Algemarin. When I was little I would use it in the bath and pretend to be a mermaid. We all did, don’t look at me like that. The hairspray will be nice to keep at work, and I’m told … Continue reading March Beauty Box Round-Up

Silver Shoes

So my resolution to not wear jersey dresses has completely fallen apart. Sue me. Dress & tights, Zellers Cardi, F21 Brooches, Trove Shoes, Ardene I bought these shoes for a halloween costume five years ago. Never thought I’d want to wear silver shoes. Here I am though! Two pairs of silver shoes in my closet, now. These are great because they’re a little bit waterproof, and it was a little bit damp out. Also my nails are astonishingly orange. I don’t know what colour I had on that day, but I really like it. I’ll have to hunt through my … Continue reading Silver Shoes

printed.

This is actually a strapless dress with a sweater over it. I have a hard time with strapless dresses, but I love them to bits. When I find a way to wear them, even covered up, it pleases me. Dress, gift from my sister Sweater (under), F21 Sweater (over), Wal-Mart Leggings, American Apparel Brooch, Maskarad The weather was impossibly warm for a bit, reaching over 25 degrees! We’re back now into ‘normal’ temperatures, hovering at or below zero. The tiny taste of summer was enough for me to WANT SUMMER and summer dresses and sandals and bright colours, oh my! … Continue reading printed.

What’s black & white & red all over?

This outfit. Dress, Reitmans Tights, Simons Belt, my mom’s vintage Sweater, Zellers Earrings, H&M Headband, Ardene I remember pretending to be wonder woman with this belt when I was really small, maybe 5 or 6. My mom had this drawer FULL of awesome funky belts (many of which are in my closet now) and it was always such a great time. I find this one hard to wear, now, because it’s a bit bold, but when I can pull it off I love it to bits. Continue reading What’s black & white & red all over?
