I should title this post "A Tale of Two Tights". Patterned tights can be tricky to wear sometimes: ones with heavy ribs need to run straight up and down, as do the sorts with cables, or else you look like an errant child. Depending on the size and shape of a motif-type, the lower leg can appear … [Read more...]

And just like that, the temps are below zero. Oh joy, my favourite season is here. *rolls eyes* I love an infinity scarf. So much, I force them on my darling husband as well - they look amazing on him, and they're as cozy as all get out. So when I spied this one a few months back (in that … [Read more...]

Something I'd been searching for was a pair of black moto-style boots, but not ones that would prove too heavy or too clunky-looking on my ankle. I've had my eyes peeled for some time, so when I was at the Nine West store a few weeks back, when I bought this excellent pair of mary janes, I had a … [Read more...]

I'm basically in accessories mode, a) because it's autumn, and it's time to break out all the cool stylin' tricks, and 2) because my anniversary was a month ago, and you know what Martin and I gave each other? BRICKS. (Totally romantic, yo - a timeless classic, one might even say.) Growing kids have … [Read more...]

I find blazers to be one of the easiest things to throw on whenever you want to pull your look together fast. Most will work over just about anything, from jeans, to a skirt. Or in this case, a jean skirt. This mini is short, I realise, but it works because it's juxtaposed with the tall boots … [Read more...]

September, you are drunk. You need to go home now... What is UP with this month? We had a sweltering jungle-like day last week, where it felt like 40 C outside, and the next day, the temps fell to something like 16 C. And then it went up again. And then down again. HELLO, CANADA. (So much for … [Read more...]

Have I ever mentioned that I don't have much hair? Yes, well... hence: ACCESSORIES. They're for accessorizing. Do not underestimate this. It's the fastest (and often lest expensive) way to change up your look, be it with hats, belts, or bling. Or glasses. Like these semi-silly hipster … [Read more...]

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...]
