Remember these? I brought them home from the place the rhymes with Sinners a few months ago, and then upon deciding they were just too spendy for flip-flops, I returned them? Well. I spied them once more while perusing the store this weekend, and found my same pair with a gorgeous red sticker on … [Read more...]

Last night I made a date with one of my foxes to share some wine and chitty-chat at one of our favourite watering holes. As we had a wee break in the crazy-heat wave, I opted to wear this maxi-skirt - a recent score from that quick-and-dirty spree at Costa Blanca. I'm seriously in love with … [Read more...]

A few weeks ago, while running some super-quick errands downtown with the girl-child in tow, high-footing it back to the Metro at 5:40 PM on a Saturday, I passed by one of those mall stores I'd forgotten I liked. There were sales signs in the windows. Of course, the shop would close in 20 minutes, … [Read more...]

Who IS this girl in all this bright colour?! Don't ask me. I hardly recognise myself. I sometimes have trouble when it comes to colour. Especially when it's this bright! But, it's hella hot in the city again these days, so short-shorts rule. I like the hot pinks and oranges in this checkered … [Read more...]

"This dress is my favourite," she breathes each time she slips it on. If she had it her way, she'd wear it every single day. It's the longest of all the dresses she has, which quite naturally deems it the best of the lot. Dancing, is always required. It's plain old cotton with a charcoal stripe … [Read more...]

Okay: shorts. I mean the short kind. I've been thinking about them ever since the weather started warming up, and I was pulling out shorts of yore, and buying new ones. Exactly how short can a lady my age go, I wondered... and what I've decided is this: Nobody's perfect. No body is, either... … [Read more...]

When I saw this little dress online, I really wasn't sure how it would be in person - that's online shopping for you. Would it be too bright? The pattern too bold? Too... jungle-y?! As it turns out, it's divine. It's got shades of greens, corals, pinks, and yellows - very groovy and retro-feeling. … [Read more...]

I got three compliments on this sweater today while I ran out for forty-five minutes... it's got a gold thread running through it, and it's very light-weight. Jaunty, she is. Lovely over these white jeans... I reckon she'll be gorgeous over small white shorts, too. Who knew a gold sweater would … [Read more...]

It's getting warmer out there... I have to say that butterflies tend to be my least favourites in motifs in clothing for girls. (Hearts are a close runner-up.) Oftentimes, I find the images insipid, badly drawn, and too boldly coloured. And the backdrop is usually some form of pink... it's … [Read more...]

I think it's hilarious that the child can still wear this dress, which will be it's third summer - it's still cool in the mornings though, so I'm throwing it over jeans and a puffed-sleeve t-shirt until it starts scorching outside... but this post is all about the shoes. You might know about this … [Read more...]
