Nothing says "simple" like jeans and a t-shirt, but we don't have to be all schlumpy about things (if we don't want to) and it's easy to perk things up with a some heels and a bit of bling. I love the cut of this off-white burnout v-neck tee, which has a rounded hemline, and very short sleeves - … [Read more...]

This outfit is actually from last night, but I know you'll forgive the delay. Le sigh. Disco naps are never long enough. (Also, they're pre-makeup... I can't do everything at once, you know.) I went to a jam-packed, tres swishy soiree at Montreal's Bice restaurant for a magazine launch - Diary of a … [Read more...]

It's been a busy week so far, so these oversized sunglasses are completely necessary. When they're THIS big, they can conceal a multitude of sins. I'm exhausted. But? I look fabulous. I am soooooo #winning. And to add to the "cartoonish" nature of this outfit, I picked up this lightweight knit … [Read more...]

Okay, it's been ages. I know. I haven't really been shopping, and I think you've all seen just about everything I own. For realz. And the winter months are just so tiresome... I've mostly been wearing slight variations of this outfit since January, I swear to god. I did pick up this little top from … [Read more...]

I haven't been wandering around naked or anything... it's just cold ALL THE TIME, and it's January, and I hardly ever leave my house if I don't have to. I do so loathe the wintertime. Really, really. So. Much. So, you will find me wearing pretty much this very outfit, or some variation of it... … [Read more...]

Drinks, drinks, drinks... I went out for burgers in Old Montreal last night with a photographer friend of mine who's studio is a stone's throw from where we went to eat, drink, and be merry. Andrea Hausmann does some amazing work... check her out. Anyway, when you hang with someone like her, you … [Read more...]

Last night, we went to a neighbour's house for an evening of good cheer. Our hostess has one of the best collection of frocks I have ever seen... and she really wears them. And she's got shoes to match, holy crap. So, since women generally dress for one another, I broke out this fabulous skirt for … [Read more...]

The holidays are for dressing up! I'm meeting one of my foxes for drinks ce soir, and as she is one who makes me feel like her ugly little brother whenever we get together, I feel need to step things up a notch. (Like last time.) And can you believe I'm in ANOTHER DRESS??! It's amazing, I know. One … [Read more...]

Well, the holidays are here, and the seasonal parties are already in full effect. Sometimes, getting dressed for such occasions can be a wee bit challenging, since my social scene is relatively small, and it seems like everyone I know will be at the same parties over and over again... so, I really … [Read more...]

I picked up this little dress recently - it's got a flutter sleeve on one side, but it's sleeveless on the other, and it ties at the side. At first I thought the brown, grey and olive colour-blocking was a bit drab... until I tried it on. Huzzah. Especially paired with boots, the whole thing feels a … [Read more...]
