Snakeskin and Tassles

We were going to go hit up some boxing day sales, and then we decided to take a few pics before! This was our second round of sale shopping, you have to do it in parts, it is just too overwhelming otherwise.





I am wearing BDG boots, american eagle jeans, and a big chunky scarf from Gap. My clutch is Nixon, and the bangles are a mix of forever21 and urban outfitters. My headband is forever21. Kathryn is wearing bailey button uggs, hurley jeans, a striped t-shirt from Gap, a French Connection blouse, and a Gap open front cardigan. Her bag is High Fashion Hnadbags. The hat is... Deluxe, I think. 
We had a great sale day, got some sweet stuff!

Tip Top Toppers

What better way to avoid fluffy hair syndrome in the rain than by wearing an adorable coloured felt hat?!?? I say nothing, so here are two looks with two of my favourites.
 The sweater is from H&M, the bug ring as well, the pink short sleeved blouse from a vintage store, and the leggings are lululemon, they have these little mini ruffles down the side of the calves. I am wearing beaded moccasins from a trading post on the Gaspe Coast. 

 Her hat is adorable eh? The floppy bow is my favvvv. The blouse is from Zara, and the cardigan is from Gap, its the softest everrrrrr it has alpaca wool in it. The bangles are forever21 and so is the ring.

That's all for now! Try and stay dry and de-fuzzed!

BRIGHTS

It has been a dreary and grey winter so far, so it can be difficult to keep the spirits up! I have found that wearing super duper bright colours helps a little bit...
I am wearing a vintage shirt, an H&M blazer, BDG skirt and hat from Urban outfitters, the shoes are from aldo, I love the studs on the toes!
                                        
Hopefully my mood will brighten like my shirt!!!!

Lions and Tigers and Bears, OH MY....

So my darling little sister kathryn, who you can see on her youtube channel www.youtube.com/user/kathryn2pointOH , and I were having some fun today! We went on a crazy attic adventure, with many unknown creatures lurking in the shadows.
     Up the ladder!!!










Kathryn is wearing a Deluxe long sleeved ribbed thermal, gray corduroy shorts from a vintage store, argyle tights from somewhere our mom found, and a scarf I picked up while in Japan a few years ago! The head band is by a local designer, the flowers are little silk circles singed? burned? at the edges, with pearls and jewels in the center. The flats are from Aldo.
My hat is our mom's, she got it when she went to England when she was younger. The alpaca sweater is from my cousin, she didn't like it, so gave it to me! 
The bracelet is Matt& Nat
                        That's all for now, we didn't get eaten by anything, it was close though!

20.12.10

baby it's cold outside.... FINALLY

Hey, so seeing as it has basically been summer here the past few weeks when really it should be winter.
It hasn't felt very Christmas-ish yet, you know? I absolutely love- no, ADORE the holidays. My family has so many traditions, the same way of decorating, baking and everything, it is the happiest I am all year, which is saying a lot because I am always pretty happy!
Here is our tree and my favourite ornament as well!!!
The unicorn was my dad's mom's and I love it, its gorgeous. The mane is really soft and fluffy too.
We have a little tree out in our backyard too, we put up the other stuff too, the old skates and skies, usually there are all bird houses, old garden tools and stuff up there.

Here is my little bluejay friend! He came for a visit, actually birds flocked our backyard when we finished putting out all the bird seeds and corn cobs. 

Another holiday tradition I love is baking, we always do all together, my mom and her friends do a cookie exchange every year, it's great fun!


I was assigned elf duty, I wrapped presents for a long, long time for my mom, pretty sure I did her whole side of the family, dad's side is next!

One other thing I am looking forward to wearing again, is my mom's old hudson bay coat, it has great fur around the hood and I look like a little eskimo.

That's all for now I guess, MERRY CHRISTMAS, and Happy Holidays!
