100% merino, 75% sweater Well, aren’t we all! A few years ago I got back into knitting, trying to step up my skill level from the occasional loooooooong scarf that I have been making s...

Huh. Is this still here? Anthropologie c.2018 What's up? I've been kinda missing this dorky little corner of my brain world. Missed trying to lazily document a love of textures and colours and ...
Vintage dress, Anthropologie Fanfare Platforms and belt, circa 2011 This is one of my favourite kinds of plaid shirtdresses- the range of overlapping colours in a similar family, the crisp c...

Ack, you know I love a trompe l'oeil print. There's also something about the mix of rusty red with a classic navy (or steel blue actually...) This dress was a surprise find at Anthropolog...

So, while last year may have been rather up and down (and inside-out), I was fortunate in getting to go on a few rather spectacular adventures. I had the opportunity to visit Tokyo for a week i...

Woohoo! My hallway is getting repainted, so no more sick yellow to try and edit around! I just have to watch my step since the workmen don't leave any 'wet paint' signs and have been rand...

I'm pretty much glued to instagram from the moment I wake up to just before I fall asleep (that's basically 9:45 am to 2:45 am, so I totally miss any early birds and their musings). I don't ...

She's back... It feels kinda nice to surreptitiously slip back in here. I've been missing being able to look back and see the flow of favourite outfits, dumb obsessions, and those bits and pi...

Lady in chartreuse. Nightsnow tunic. Wishful thinking, I know, since it's still January, and still crazy cold out there! But the spring wishlists and catalogues are starting to roll in. An...

There's nothing for it- the end result of months of watching a bevy of bright plaids pass before my eyes has led to a brief run on the darn things. I've mostly kept to a budget, but it sure...

It's January and it's a cold white world out there. So it's certainly a wonderful time to bring a little floral and colour back into the everyday. I invested in this knit dress back during t...

2014 is finally limping out of orbit, or rather coughing and hacking it's way out. December was chaos, without and within, and then the minute Christmas was over, I of course settled cozily ...

I made a late night run to the local depanneur/corner store the other night to pick up a can of cat food to tide us over until the morning. (Mr. Ghibli pretends to only like the dry kibble,...

Amidst the beautiful colours of fall (yadda yadda...swoon swoon), it's also been nice to see some grey-on-grey looks for the season. I'd been looking for a full light-grey skirt for several y...

Yeah, yeah, they try and tell ya summer's over. Well, we have another month on the calendar officially, (almost) and I aim to make the most of it. However since September also evokes a ce...

This spring I was obsessed with finding a simple sleeveless pink blouse. Etsy was not coming to the rescue- too much 80s- and I couldn't find anything in contemporary retail. I was starting ...

Oh, how I love summer- not least because a surplus of well-timed government holidays has given me several 4-day weekends in a row! We're in the middle of a heatwave, but I love, love, love i...
