Polka Dots

I’m pretty behind on my posts, and I’ve been slacking on taking photos. It’s just so cold outside now (-15C)! I’ll do better. Dress, H&M Hoodie, GAP Leggings, Les Ailes Boots, Payless Watch, Miss Sixty Ring, Trove Bracelet, Trove I can’t believe this was taken only a few weeks ago. Outside now is covered in the white stuff and ICE and breathing hurts. 2012 is almost here, though, I’m pretty excited! Continue reading Polka Dots

Daytime Sparkly

I love how this turned out! Tank, Republique Cardi, Jacob Skirt, Old Navy Leggings, AA Boots, Payless Necklace, hs graduation gift from my mother watch, Miss Sixty ring (bow), F21 I think everyday sequins are absolutely fine. And I love how the stripey sequin looks with plaid. This skirt is ridiculously itchy, being wool, so tucking in is a MUST (and more underlayers = better). The AA leggings come up to just under the bust, so there’s no chance of wool touching skin. Even so, I felt a little prickle now and again. This outfit came about because I was … Continue reading Daytime Sparkly

Everyone can see me

I love this tee, it amuses me terribly. Tee, shirt.woot Skirt, Old Navy Cardi, Jacob Leggings, Les Ailes Boots, Payless I was quite comfortable in this, it’s hard not to be in tee and courderoy. People often ask me why I don’t wear pants/jeans and I just don’t find them comfortable. I change sizes often (often!) and skirts are more forgiving. I have everything from 8 – 18 in my wardrobe and a skirt will just get shorter and high waisted or hip-slung, whereas I probably couldn’t cram my thigh into the waist of a size 8 pant. So it … Continue reading Everyone can see me

I got a new winter hat! Hat, San Francisco Hats (Winners) Cardi & Dress, Zellers Leggings, American Apparel Boots, Payless Earrings, gift from Lauren from … Florida? I love the cheek of this hat. It could be totally normal and straightlaced, but there’s a big ol’ bow and an asymmetrical brim and it’s just delightful. A wee bit large for my noggin, but looks super cute, so I am pleased. Also it keeps my head warm, which will be a plus when it gets all snowy again. Continue reading hat hat hat hat hat hat

Earrings.

Turquoise is among my favourite colours, I think. Blouse, Skirt, Old Navy Belt, thrifted Cardi, Zellers Boots, Naturalizer Tights, We Love Colours Bracelet, present from Spain Earrings, Wal-Mart when I was 13. Sweater guard, Lady Jane You can’t see it, but I’m probably also wearing a watch. I used to not wear earrings at all. My skin is quite sensitive (see: the rash from necklace, HK watch), and nearly all earrings make my lobes hurt for days. These, though, I’ve always been able to wear. I don’t know what they’re made of, but it’s magic. Non-irritatey magic. I’m into the … Continue reading Earrings.

Peachy keen

I may have been feeling ill, by the look on my face. Tee, Reitmans Infinity Scarf, Manteaux Manteaux Skirt, Joe Fresh Tights, Les Ailes de la Mode Boots, Payless I bought this shirt because I loved the colour, but the drape on my frame is not quite right. I like how it looks in the end, but it makes me wish I had a longer torso, which is not a feeling I like. My torso is fine, damn it, shirt! Continue reading Peachy keen

Winter blues

The snow melted!! Tee, Urban Outfitters Cardi, thrifted Skirt, Dynamite Tights, Aldo Boots, Payless Ring & Sweater Guard, Lady Jane The beginning of winter is such a weird time. You really never know what to dress for. The snow melted, so I went back to my normal boots and coat, and was still slightly overdressed. Ten degrees, though, so not complaining! Going through my jewels makes me realize just how much I have. I have decided to : a) wear more earrings b) wear at least two pieces of jewellery every day, not including watch c) re-categorize for better viewing … Continue reading Winter blues

More Dots, more dots!!

I hope you appreciate me braving the snow and cold to bring you better lighting. Dress, Thyme Maternity, thrifted Cardi, H&M Ring, Brooch & Sweater Guard, Lady Jane Watch, Miss Sixty Boots, Naturalizer Tights, We Love Colours This dress is a difficult length for me to wear, unless in heels, so with the coming of winter and the breakout of the winter boots, I thought I might wear it. This white flower brooch is so pretty. I’m really glad I picked it up. I love brooches. Continue reading More Dots, more dots!!
