I have way too many black skirts, and to justify keeping them all, I’m trying to wear them. This is a black skirt I got a few years ago. It’s lineny and therefore summery and has like airy panels to keep my bum cool. This is how I justify keeping it. Skirt, Republique Tank, H&M Cardi, Joe Fresh Necklace & Bracelet, Zellers Earrings, H&M Sandals, Impanema The cats pictured are Vex (at feet) and Kisses (behind me). They’re handling the heat remarkably well. I’d think with fur coats they’d be just sitting down all the time and panting, but they … Continue reading Pink & Black

I finally got the hairdye out of this skirt! It only took like ten washings. The nice thing about non-permanent dye is it doesn’t forever stain your clothes. It doesn’t forever stain your hair, either, which is less nice. However, I am pleased that my skirt is not ruined. Tee & Skirt, Old Navy Sandals, Impanema Bracelets, left: Lady Jane Bracelet, right: American Eagle Outfitters Necklace, gift from great-grandmother This is Monday’s outfit. My first day as the only supporty type person in the department. It went.. okay. I didn’t die and I didn’t kill anyone, so plusses all around! Continue reading New skirt: Not ruined!

this skirt is made of sweatpants. But I think it’s okay, because it’s not ‘really’ sweatpants. I used to argue with Mina that pull-on pants were a slippery slope toward sweatpants, and I think this might be closer. I have to give up that argument, or admit that I am getting to an age where sweatpants might be just acceptable attire. I’m not. Skirt, Joe Fresh Tank, Ardene Hoodie, GAP Sandals, Impanema Necklace, gift from Mina As you can see, I still don’t have any furniture. The Ikea man never came, so I am a stoveless, couchless, sad person. Continue reading Sunday Sweats

The word ‘romper’ will always make me think of Romper Room, always. This one is dreadfully comfortable, like wearing satin jimmy jams. However, I find it quite short for what I am comfortable with. I may save it for cooler weather with tights from now on. Romper, F21 Sandals, Impanema Necklace, The long one with the feather, I don’t know. I got it at Little Burgundy Bracelet, Lady Jane This is the day I went to buy paint with Lauren! It was pretty nice. We went for breakfast at Burgers and Benedicts, I was totally good and ate no gluten … Continue reading Romper-Room

This is what I wore to see Daniel Tosh. It was a good day, a good show. Had tacos for the second time at Grumman78 (The Taco Truck!) and it was delicious of course. Not really worth the wait, but very good. The panna cotta was worth making myself sick for. Dress, Banana Republic Necklace, Ardene Shoes, Impanema Bracelet, Lady Jane (Check out this teacup! I love it so hard!!) House progress is coming along. I bought some paint! Now I just need brushes and rollers and sticks and people to paint and I’m golden. Continue reading Tosh.0

I’ve moved outside for this, hoping the lighting would make it so that I am not blurry. It didn’t, I don’t know why. Mina, when you’re in town, you must look at this contraption. Skirt, Old Navy Tank, Zellers Cardi, H&M Sweater Guard, Lady Jane Earrings & Bracelet, mosaicplanet I can’t believe we’re already the end of July, can you? This summer has totally passed me by. I need to go to the beach or something, salvage what is left. Also: read things. Summer novels about romance and silliness! Maybe see a summer blockbuster (Ooh, Cowboys vs Aliens, perhaps!) Oh, … Continue reading Outside

This week has been super hectic. I’ve got tickets to Just For Laughs shows every night, which is super great! On Monday, I saw Adam Hills, Tuesday, Russell Howard (who I absolutely adore!!), last night Jimmy Carr, tonight I’ll see Louis CK and tomorrow Daniel Tosh. It’s great! This is what I wore to Adam Hills on Monday. I was comfortable, which is good, because it was a million degrees, again. Dress, Reitmans Belt, Ardene Sandals, Impanema I really miss my two-door setup in the old place, it was nice for pictures. This place seems to have a lot more … Continue reading Circles

I’m on the phone, and blurry. This house isn’t good for pictures, apparently. Need more outside. I have considered using the balcony, but I’m pretty paranoid about the cats running out, never to be heard from again. Speaking of the house! Aaron came by and patched all the holes in the walls, so I am one step closer to my pink dream! Also, I discovered I had the address wrong, and that is why my internets haven’t been hooked up yet. I bet the folk up the street are loving it. Shush. I know I’m dumb. I’ve also selected a … Continue reading

Again, it’s too hot. I also had a heckuva day, on this day. I bought a new skirt which I started the day in, but had hair colour in my bag, it exploded, and ended up all over me. My skirt was dyed far better than my hair ever is. The bag is also purple. Fortunately, I keep a tonne of clothes at the office, for some reason, so I had this sparkly number to fall back on. It wasn’t what I intended, but I looked pretty cute. The lack of glasses is so that I can wear sunnies. I … Continue reading

I still don’t think I know what 48 degrees really means, except sweaty. My AC doesn’t work, either, so I’m shiny. Shiny. I can only imagine how the cats feel. I’m wearing a lot of light dresses and not much else. No progress has been made on the redecorating, because I just lay around thinking about how hot it is. It’s hot. Dress, H&M New Sandals, Old Navy Necklaces, NB Value Village Continue reading The hottest week ever
