Phew!

i’ve been wearing more black than usual, although my socks are blue there… and i bought black socks today. you would laugh if i say that the headache i’ve been having the past few days might have been caused by the stress i was under to search for a gift for a friend under $40. this secret santa thingamajig my brilliant friend decided to do – so four of us be secret santas to each other. two of them made it sound like it’s legit, but that was the first time i heard of it sung out loud like it’s a nursery rhyme i oughta know! so yes, being secret santa gave me migraines. i’m uptight like that, always freaking out nervous worried.

so! i’m free from panicking because i found zee present! and i’m delirious and i just want to tell what it is already.

well i can’t of course.

Channeling Sarah

The cloudy skies had me again. I thought it might pour thus the cardigan. Well it’s my favourite thing to wear lately anyway so who i am kidding needing an excuse! I say “channeling Sarah” because the image of her and her infamous bow is forever stored away somewhere in my head.

New socks

These are from Zipia, they’re my favourite for tights&such. It being two-toned made me feel a little kooky. And i pretty much walk around in these boots, i’m tired of my other shoes for the time being. Took a walk downtown tonight and checked out the Christmas lights while at it. Lacking carols i must say, to get into the mood. We plan on buying a 5′ tree and not hang any ornaments so the cats won’t have their fun! We’ll see, Paragon has veryveryvery delightful ornaments this time, check out the Peacock Fantasy one if you’re there. One peacock for $13.90 is so unfriendly. So my tree can only have one then.

Wet Weather Defense

After uploading this photo onto Flickr, I realise how sullen i look here. I’m usually able to use a cheerier one but none of the eleven shots looked ‘happyshinyperson’. Maybe it’s the indoor lighting. Maybe it’s the weather.

Cardigan & boots are vintage from ebay, dress from Beacon’s Closet, tights from Zipia and bag from Mulberry.

Hi Wasted

Last Sunday i had brunch with my girlfriends and one of them, Melanie, was rocking her high-waisted shorts. So you know the deal, when you see another human in real life making it work, there’s a slight possibility it’ll work on you too right. (So this is for you Mel! For making me have the guts to tuck my top into my shorts and walk around as Bennyho calls me Daffy Duck from behind.) I got some stares here and there but so long as they stay comfy, i’m not trading it for anything.

Shorts: vintage from ebay
Bag & sandals: vintage from etsy
