Baby, It's Cold Outside

oufit deets: shoes - Jasmin c/o Big Buddha // tights, coat - H&M // collar - vintage // gloves - gift

It is getting quite chilly around these parts lately. I have had to pull out some of my winter coats. I guess I have become a bit of a winter coat collector - I have three that are generally in pretty heavy rotation and another three that I save for particular occasions. Those are just the ones in my personal collection, nevermind the ones I have for sale in the shop right now! I'm excited to take more wintery photos complete with outerwear in the future. I'll also be doing outfit photos without the outerwear too, of course!

For the fellow fash bloggers in colder climates, will you guys be photographing your outerwear this winter?

Happy Monday!

It's My Party

It was my Birthday this past Tuesday and I turned 23 though I keep thinking that I am still 22. It will take some time to settle into my new age :p. I'm hoping 23 will be a good year, full of lots of new things to experience!

Typically I'm not super into my Birthday but this year I felt like getting dressed up and actually doing an activity other than just going out to a bar with my friends. On Friday we celebrated with dinner and bowling. Dale and I were joined by my cousin and Dad as well as some of my friends and we bowled our fingers off. It was a fun night filled with gutter balls and Diana camera pictures (hopefully they will make an appearance here soon!). I wore this green dress for the evening because I thought the little bows printed all over were quite appropriate. I'm glad I saved it for my Birthday!

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you people south of the border! It's just a regular 'ole Thursday here in Canada except without my regularly scheduled programming. That means no Fringe tonight - dangit. Anyway I just spent the day helping my aunt with computer woes and thrift shopping. I just got home from the gym and now I have to think about something to make for dinner. Oh how I would have enjoyed a Turkey dinner tonight :p alas, we had our Turkey day a month and a half ago! At least we get Black Friday sales now - not that I'll be participating :p

I was pretty in love with the outfit today, I'm liking the whole scholarly feel of it. Not-so-crazy about the hair haha! Ungh - rain just makes it poof up like crazy. To go with the theme today (though I have done exactly no amount of actual school work) I bought a kilt while out thrifting! I have always wanted to style up a kilt in a different way from how I had to wear one while in High School but could never find one that I liked. Anyway, the one I found is perfect - you'll see what I mean soon enough.

Talk soon lovelies!

p.s. I tripped more than once while taking these pictures. Evidence:

Diana Camera!

True story - I was totally spoiled today. Well, truth is - I have an amazing and attentive boyfriend who knew exactly what I wanted for my birthday :p a Diana Camera! Plus he got me like a bajillion accessories for it including a whack of lenses and a 35mm back. I am soo excited to start taking photos with it. I've spent a good portion of the night setting it up. I have the 35mm back on, now I just have to pretty much learn how to use the camera - haha! Luckily it came with a bunch of literature and I've already found some awesome youtube tutorials. I am so totally making a little string trigger for it so I can do some outfit photos with it.

I know this post is kind of meta, taking pictures of my new camera and all. I'm just too excited and the camera is so pretty so I wanted to document it!

Alright guys that's it for this very late hour. I hope you all had an awesome Tuesday and a stellar hump day ahead.

Caped Crusader

outfit deets: shoes - Jasmin c/o Big Buddha // tights, top, skirt - H&M // cape - vintage

I wore the cape that I have been gushing over the past few days today. It was pretty disgusting out in the way that it has been raining but on the plus side it was pretty mild. All I wore out was this top with the cape over and I was even a little hot. I love this cape despite the fact that it is a little crazy. I feel a little witchy in this outfit and my absolutely crazy hair (thanks rain) is totally playing that up.

These shoes are my new favourite thing. I had been looking for a pair of shoes like these since the spring. They are also incredibly comfy. They showed up on my doorstep this morning and I immediately styled them up for the day. What an awesome day-before-my-Birthday present!

Anyway, off to the gym and then back to studying. Joy! :p

A Day in the Life

I thought it would be neat to do a "photo an hour" post today to switch it up from my usual outfit photos. I have been wanting to do this for awhile now but I always forget to start taking the photos in the morning. I told Dale about my troubles and he suggested that I put my camera on my bedside table so that I would remember in the morning. His plan obviously worked because here I am with the post! He was also instrumental in reminding me to take photos every hour. :p So without further ado, one picture for every hour of a pretty regular weekend day:

...or Good Morning.

Happy Sunday dears!!
