re: title. Cheetah makes me think of Cheater, which always brings about the phrase “Cheaters never prosper” which I guess my mom would chant to me over and over again growing up? I never cheated. Back to my crappy camera! Dress, Old Navy Cardi, H&M Necklace, Love, Montreal Tights, Anne Klein over We Love Colours After this was taken I added my black rose stud earrings from H&M, as well. I love this outfit! I love love love my hair! It’s like.. victory rolls for the very thin haired. I rolled my front hair around my finger and pinned it … Continue reading Cheetahs never prospah.

This outfit contains two of the prohibited items, but were worn before I decided I wouldn’t wear them for the rest of the winter. Besides, Look at the thing on my head! Cardi, Joe Fresh Dress, Zellers Tights, AA Boots, Payless Watch, Miss Sixty Sweater Guard, Trove Hat-thing, Target More fancyboycam action, and I do look far clearer. I need a dedicated photographer, I do. Just someone who follows me about and captures my every move. Something like I imagine Karen has. Continue reading Sparkle-Headed

This outfit is super simple! Dress, Old Navy Brooch, Trove Boots, Naturalizer Watch, Miss Sixty Ring, Trove The lad had his fancy camera over and took these with that. Again, no straight faces. He’s the most impossible fellow ever. He takes photos and is like, good at it, which makes him very picky about the light, the height, the stance, the background (you know, you should get a backdrop so that there’s not all these crooked walls beh– No.) I did buy new curtains for light in here, though, and it makes an amazing difference. My room is so happy … Continue reading LBD

I’ve been watching more than a few Audrey Hepburn movies and as a result I feel the need to be more classicallike, because she’s frigging beautiful. Skirt, thrifted Sweater & Guard, Trove Blouse, Old Navy Belt, H&M My wardrobe is sadly lacking in Audrey-inspired things. This is as close as I could get, because I cannot seem to find my full H&M skirt! I’ll keep searching. I need to reorganize my closets something fierce. The Children’s Hour is an amazing movie, by the way, and on Netflix. Check it out. Continue reading Funny Face

Here are some of my unfavourites from the past little while… Cardi & Dress, Zellers Boots, Payless Jeans, Les Ailes de la Mode Sweater, Joe Fresh Tee, gift! And, because these were on my camera, bonus getting ready photos! Double bonus – cat pic! Continue reading Boring Outfit Round-Up

Quite a lot going on here. Ring & Sweater (grey), F21 Skirt & Blouse, H&M Cardi, Joe Fresh Sweater Guard, Trove Watch, Miss Sixty Shoes, Valentine’s present!!! This underblouse is awesome and I don’t wear it enough. I got an unexpected compliment on this outfit which made me absolutely glow! Everyone who saw me had some positive comment. It reminded me of why I put so much darn effort into what I wear. Looking different, like ‘me’, is very important to me. I’m wearing three layers up top, but they’re all very ‘me’ – bright pink cardi, see-through frills, and … Continue reading Layers.

This colour combination is one I wear almost as often as I do black. Skirt, Joe Fresh Cardi, H&M Tee, Old Navy Sweater Guard, Trove Watch, Miss Sixty Bracelet, Zellers Earrings, too small to tell, probably pearl drop thingies? Leggings, Les Ailes de la Mode I don’t do a lot in the way of pastels, but every time I wear this top I feel like I should. So often I feel like they wash me out but that isn’t the case with this particular shirt. Is it the peach specifically? Maybe. Mint green definitely isn’t for me Continue reading Pastels & Grey

Like a pimento-stuffed olive, I am. Tights, Hue Skirt, Old Navy Tank, Zellers Cardi, Jacob Sweater Guard, Trove This skirt is so! itchy! Wool, it’s never a good idea. It’s warm, though, which is nice, even though it’s a little bit supershort. It’s so itchy I feel I may have to give it up. I should cull a lot of my wardrobe! Continue reading Olivesy

I asked the Lad to take my photos in the morning, since he’s all good at such things. Dress, Zellers Cardi, Jacob Tights, American Apparel Giant Head Bow, Postlapsaria Earrings, gift Sweater Guard, Pop goes My Vintage Ring & Bow brooch, Trove Watch, Hello Kitty Unfortunately, it means I can’t keep a straight face! I’m fine with this, really, as I do have quite a happy smile, but somehow I am self-conscious of it. Possibly because my teeth are crooked. I shouldn’t let it bother me, but it does, a little bit. This bow, however, does not bother me. It’s … Continue reading Happy Face

Dress, H&M CArdi, Winners Vest, Makers of True Originals Leggings, American Apparel Sweater Guard, Pop goes my Vintage on Etsy Watch, Miss Sixty Eyelet in winter is a bit unusual I guess. Also, have I mentioned how much I love putting my hair up!? BECAUSE I DO. I’ve been separating it in two, and tying up the top half, then tying back the bottom as well. We used to do it in the early 90s, when I was a kid. It shows off my streaks super well, and is really easy, and I feel looks quite polished. I wish I … Continue reading Vested
