Tie one on

Do you have any items in your closet that you can never let go of? This sweater is one of those things for me. It belonged to my Mum, and is probably older than I am. 

Agent Carter?

Do you watch Marvel's Agent Carter? Admittedly, I became interested in it because of my boys and their obsession with all things "super" but I am hooked on the Agent Carter tv show. Peggy Carter is just so. darn. cool.

Family Photo Fest

Back at the beginning of November my family got together at one of the local parks and met with a very talented young photographer, Ashley Topping, to have some family photos done. The last time we did this as a large group my littl'un was just a baby - and he's now 5, so we were certainly due for an update. My sisters and I all split on the cost of the session with Ashley (which was incredibly reasonably priced, I might add) and gave the photo session to our parents as a birthday gift - their birthdays are only 5 days apart.

Denim & Floral

You've definitely seen this dress a few times before - however, I think this is the first time I've worn it as a skirt.

Little Miss Flower Pants

I'm glad I got a chance to wear these pants one more time this summer before the fall weather really kicks in.

Jump in

I love this jumpsuit (romper, onesie, whatever you want to call it) and am so glad that print jumpsuits are still in style this year.

Tie one (Scarf) on

Feeling a little vintage airline stewardess today! Lol

Vintage Inspired

Every now and then I get just a teensy bit obsessed with vintage and retro styling. I love the pictures I have of my great-grandmothers in their cotton day-dresses, sensible tweeds, and good walkable dressy shoes. I love the hats (and I'm wearing a fascintor headband in homage to them) and the simple accessories.

Pleather and Plaid

Don't you love a good thrifting find? I know I do. I was out with my sister and randomly happened upon this red pleather jacket. It's a Le Chateau, so the quality is decent, but I sure wasn't swayed by the $45 price tag. Of course that's when the lady working the shop mentioned that the blue tag items were 75% off that day. Pleather jacket for $13? Sold!

Outdoorsy... ish

This is one of those outfits that I always try and categorize and it comes out as "Outdoors...y....ish".
Thing is - if I was actually spending time outdoors, I probably wouldn't be wearing this. But this is the kind of outfit that people think of when you say "outdoorsy". Y'know?

Peach and Plaid

Wearing skirts in the winter can be tricky up here in Canada. Tights or not there are days when you still need a rather thick layer of fabric between your skin and the cold.

Holiday Glam

I wore this outfit on Christmas Eve to church. Christmas is past, but I feel that the same ideas for simple glam can be applied to New Year's Eve as easily as Christmas.
