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!

Spent father’s day with my dad and nephew, (and sister, but she’s less important. Hi Brit!). Nephew played with my dad’s dog, BOSS, and was generally adorable, the way he is. I had a really nice day full of laughs, and my aunt even came round to spend time with my pops. I think he was pleased with how the day went down. Afterward, I curled up and watched 127 Hours, which I wholly regret doing. Dress, H&M Cardi, Zellers Sandals, Ardene Sweater guard, Lady Jane Necklace and Earrings, from my sister cat, Kisses Continue reading Father’s Day

I’m in love with this dress. I feel like a princess. I almost never wear pale colours, but the shape of this dress was such that I had to at least try it on, and I’m glad I did. It fits perfectly! I wish I could go back and get more. It’s boned! I love boning in the bodice. For me, it feels like you’re just put together, held in – I stand straighter, and feel better. I also picked up these wedges. Again, I seldom wear beige but it does seem a practical colour, will go with everything, and … Continue reading Pretty Neutrals

I missed a bunch of photos this week because I kept forgetting my camera at work. I’m sorry 🙁 There was nothing outrageous going on outfit wise anyway, that I can recall. Jeans one day, because I am sick. I have some kind of skritchy throat business that won’t go away. When I’m sick I get a bit down on myself, so less effort goes into how I look. However, I have been wearing makeup every day since purchasing a MAC lipstick, so I guess that is something. Yesterday I also got Clinique All About Lips, which I tried in … Continue reading Too warm, can’t dress

For a mutual friend’s awesome birthday, Lauren and I went for dinner and dancing (well, I went dancing, Lauren was too old / tired). The previous day, she demanded I wear these glasses with “all black, with pops of colour”. This is that request. I actually had a really hard time, since I wanted to be festive and birthday-y, but not too OTT as to detract from the birthday girl. I also wanted to appear fun and dancey, pretty.. I realize this makes me sound ridiculous but it took hours to choose something. So, the all black didn’t work out, … Continue reading “black with pops of colour!”

My new glasses came! I LOVE these so much. I don’t care that they are a wee bit on the large size for my face, they are hot pink, zebra print, cat eyes! I didn’t know that the order would be coming, so my outfit was not matchy-matchy on purpose, but it looked awesome in the end. So pleased! I got four pairs of glasses: white, green & pink, blue, and these, which brings my face-wardrobe to six pairs. Lauren claims that were I black and white, I would be Cruella DeVille; and that my purple hair and pink glasses … Continue reading If she doesn’t scare you…
