First of all, I can't believe this tutu is still in rotation - it's sized 12 - 18 months, but it didn't even start to fit her properly until she was close to three years of age. It's one of her favourites because it's all swishy. It's one of my favourites because it's good ol' basic grey. It's … [Read more...]
The Closet Shrink: Fall Overhaul
It all started one day last week, when my son asked if there were any gloves around... damn, but the mornings can be super-chilly these days! And we keep a basket on a shelf inside the coat closet, but I haven't rifled through that thing since we stopped shoving stuff in there at the end of last … [Read more...]
From My Closet – October 15th, 2012
Everything old is new again... I've had this shirt dress for several years, but I stopped wearing it as a dress when it stopped buttoning properly. (I stopped smoking 2.5 years ago, and I gained back some weight, so look like a person again - yay for me!) I really loved the dark olive colour, and … [Read more...]
Your Style Council – The Eyes Have It
I was chatting the other evening with lovely Sara by email, who was lamenting how she needed to get her brows done. "Dude... they're so gross," she said, which I sincerely doubted. But it did get me thinking... Recently, I talked about my own eyebrows, and lack thereof, but for lots of ladies, if … [Read more...]
From My Closet – October 9th, 2012
Sometime last week while I was kicking around downtown, I had all kinds of random thoughts, barely connected... you know, the way random thoughts tend to be. Oh, I have to send an email to that friend who just moved to Seattle... and I owe a phone call to my other friend in Seattle... her birthday … [Read more...]

Yeah, so... stretchy teal cords. I've mentioned before about having trouble with colour sometimes, but this isn't like whackadoodle blue or anything... this tone is easy to wear - and it plays well with other blues, browns, and greys. (Tip: Coloured jeans or cords are a fun way to modern-up your … [Read more...]
Your Style Council – Hobo Panties and Other Underthings
If you've been purging your closets and drawers of all the bad, ill-fitting, and faded types of things, then I applaud you. *clap, clap, clap* But, there's more... You know when you put on a pair of socks, then take a few steps around the house, and convince yourself you've stepped in something … [Read more...]

From My Closet – September 26th, 2012
The other day, while shuffling things around in my closet, purging and whatnot, I came upon my short stack of too-warm-for-summer pants, that I pile behind the "wear now" stack - it looks tidier on the shelf this way, and I don't have to balance, like, 12 pairs of pants in a wobbly tower all the … [Read more...]
(On The Way Out) From My Closet – September 20th, 2012
I can e'splain... I bought skirt close to Christmas-party season several years back - it's a high-waisted dark grey satin with a bit of black tulle at the hem, with a black grosgrain ribbon bow replete with black cherries affixed on the hip. Felt like something I could wear that said "holiday" … [Read more...]
