While out with my Littles today, I got three Great t-shirt comments, two people said Love the hat, and one What is UP with those jeans, girl? Thank you, Gap - sometimes you make my ass look so boss are so good to me. I love the fit, and the whiskering, and the faded dark rinse, and distress … [Read more...]

I don't know what this weather is doing. Heat-wave followed by chilly spell... it's all a lady can do, trying to get dressed and look relatively fly while out and about town. I had to break out a toque last week while in the woods, and to be fair, it sometimes feels so comforting. And it lends a … [Read more...]

Lawd, but it's hawt. (This is not a complaint, Universe - just an observation.) Like in most Canadian cities, summer really means stripping down and enjoying the heat on one's skin. In Montreal? People are walking around practically nekkid. That's because we spend the other ten months of the year … [Read more...]

Oh, Old Navy, you've done it again... this time it's an A-line cotton sundress, so simple in it's shape and design. I wasn't sure I'd love the bright floral - I worried it might be just... too damned bright - but against the grey-green background colour, this dress is a winner. Of course, those … [Read more...]

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...]

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...]

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...]

I wore this around town yesterday - the sweater is a really light weight knit in a gold thread, and I love the simple neckline. Good with the simple gold flip-flop and dark jeans. Simple is good. And when later I suddenly looked up and it was nearly 8 PM, and I had a drinks date in fifteen minutes? … [Read more...]

I was at the place the rhymes with Sinners the other day, and while perusing the shoe section, I came across this pair of Coach sandals. In silver. And they were a neat size 5 1/2. I slipped them on, and decided they were quite good, but balked at the price: $99.99. Now, they're Coach, so I get it. … [Read more...]

I bought this little skirt during a sidewalk sale from Le Chateau. It was just hanging there, completely adorable and beckoning... it's sage in colour, perfectly soft and already kinda worn looking - ideal for summer schlepping, when you don't want to look too crisp. Plus, it's a nice change from … [Read more...]
