Hearts and flowers


As you can see, I really like this top. It's comfortable, pretty, and goes with everything. I try not to repeat it constantly, but it's one of these pieces I will always pick when I am not sure what to wear.

Velvet skirt

This skirt belonged to my mom - and I love it. Clothes are not about brands - they're rather about how we feel when we're wearing them.






Monday

Orangerie


I'm going to wear a different skirt everyday this week.
I haven't posted for a while... be patient. I'm still feeling lost, and I don't know what's wrong with my camera, but there's definitely something wrong with it. I hope to make better quality photos along the way.

When we don't feel like it...

Considering we're in Januay, today was a pretty warm day in Toronto: the temperatures reached 12ºC! I have to confess I was feeling lazy and didn't feel like going out, but I had to. It's like the world is calling and you may regret it if you stay at home. Needless to say I was not inspired to choose an outfit, so I picked a black dress, black boots, a brown cardigan... but I felt I needed something happier and brighter: why not a scarf? Well, I'm not the most stylish woman in the planet but it turned out ok. I was also wearing a Fedora hat, but ended up putting it away due to the wind.

The picture was not taken for the blog... it's just a place I like and wanted to register - on Yonge, south of Eglinton (for the ones who are familiar with Toronto).

Brightening up






Wednesday

Montréal... encore !


What do I like about this look? The colours!

Boots (from a local store in Montreal):


Tuesday

Happy New Year!


Nothing too special for New Year's Eve, since we had our dinner at home. I did wear, though, a golden skirt (which seems dark in the picture), boots, a hat, and a brand new T-shirt (tradition says one should always wear something new to start up fresh).

Sunday

Christmas in Montreal

With hubby having to work 2 or 3 days in Montreal, I packed and joined him for a very nice Christmas trip. It was my second time in Montreal and, despite the cold, I had a much better impression of the people and the city itself. We ate a lot at local places and I could speak some French + do some shopping. I found out that Serge Henri, Rodízio Brasil, Paris Crêpes, Firegrill and Guido & Angelina are great places to eat, that the tradicional B-Barn has a terrible service, and that Boris Bistrô has good food and good service but the environment is a little too noisy. (Brasserie t!, recommended by a friend, was closed for the holidays.)



Delicious crêpes and poutines...

I got super happy with my new yellow coat, which I got at Old Navy. The bag is from Guess. As for the other items... sorry; can't remember :-( 

Happy 2013!

Friday

More of (almost) the same

 

I don't usually do this, but when I bought last post's dress, I bought a similar one as well (with a different pattern). Just because I loved it and paid such a good price on it (20 bucks; what do you think?).

I'm wearing a brown jacket and a dark pashmina scarf, too. I acknowledge the fact that it's hard to identify the colours :(


Wednesday

Red is my favorite colour

Gray is my favorite color/ I felt so symbolic yesterday/ If I knew Picasso, I would buy myself a gray guitar and play


OMG. I don't have an iPhone. I'll never be part of a fashion bloggers' team if I don't have an iPhone. Listen, I don't even have a smartphone. Am I lost in this world?

I've been thinking of getting an iPhone, but what really bothers me is the monthly contract, though. I don't wanna be attached to a long-term monthly plan I don't need (I currently spend less than 10 dollars a month on cell phone bills), and instead of buying an iPhone, shouldn't I buy a good camera?

Mr. Jones and me...

Back to blogging

Summer, work, lack of time, lack of a decent camera, lack of patience... I don't know what that was. But here I am, looking for some social contact and inspiration. Once a blogger, always a blogger.
