Pink & Bows

Pink cardigans please me. Dress, Urban Outfitters Belt, ModCloth Cardi, Joe Fresh Shoes, v-day present Sweater Guard, Trove Summer is here! Summer is here! I went bare legged and wasn’t cold! I’m so pleased with the weather: It’s, like, warm, and nice, and sunny, and fun, and I like it a lot! Going for walks on the canal is a lot more pleasant when it’s 20+ degrees than in the wintertime, I tell you what. Finally, here are my cats, destroying things: Continue reading Pink & Bows

Dots dots dots dots

I need to get around to shortening this dress! Dress, over, thrifted Dress, under, H&M Cardi, Jacob Shoes, payless I don’t think I’ll ever be able to really pull off a midi-length in the way I want, sadly. This overdress hits me just at the point that it makes me seem about a foot shorter than I am. At 5’1″, that’s not my favourite look ever. Ah well. Scissors, here I come. These dresses were just hanging together and I noticed the two-tone dots totally worked. It was also handy that I had a dress under a dress, because the … Continue reading Dots dots dots dots

Maine

I went to Maine! Maine was very pretty – very, very photogenic. I thought that postcards of Maine were taken all in one particularly idyllic seaside town, you know? Turns out the whole state is just that. Just beautiful homes, seaside views, crashing ocean and happy, happy people. We drove through New Hampshire, stopping at a lake in White Mountain National Forest where I got in, and got good and eaten by some blackflies, and having a bite to eat at Shiloh’s in Woodsville, where we had the single happiest server I have ever encountered. This place was amazingly pleasant. … Continue reading Maine

New Dress!

My sole american (clothing) purchase! Dress, Target Tights,American Apparel Booties, gift Cardi, H&M Daffodil pin, Luxe Box Watch, Miss Sixty Ring, Trove This dress is super adorable!

Tights

Got back to Montreal and was faced with dreary weather! Dress, H&M White tights & Cardi, F21 Grey tights, Secret Booties, from my sister Watch, Miss Sixty Bracelet & Sweater Guard, Trove I’m hooked on tights-layering, though. It’s perfect for the middle-season weather, rainy and dreary but not super cold. Also means I have a boatload of basically one-of-a-kind tights, which I’m pretty into! Continue reading Tights

Luxe, Glossy & Julep – April 2012

FINALLY got my Luxe box, May 1st! Not super impressed by that. Products: Seche Porcelain, File & Nail guide: This was my First In Line product, and I didn’t expect a 3.6ML bottle, single sheet of nail guides and teeny file when I requested a “Seche French Kit”. I suppose I shouldn’t complain too hard, but it was a bit disappointing. Other options in the First In Line were Panty By Post (mail panties, not sure about this), an Essie polish (which turned out to be a super cute pale pink colour), and a hair treatment. Orlane Oligo Light Smoothing … Continue reading Luxe, Glossy & Julep – April 2012

Meh.

Not a huge fan of this outfit. Jeans, Cardi, Joe Fresh Tee, Old Navy Brooch, gift from Carmen Booties, gift from my sister Watch, Hello Kitty The outfit doesn’t tickle me, but my hair does. You can really see the pink -> green transition here, and I love it. I’ve also taken to wearing blush, which I think you can see. My sister passed these booties along to me because they were a bit too big for her, and they’re quite right for me. I’ve also managed to wear them into the ground in a matter of weeks. Whoops!
