All together ooky

They're creepy and they're kooky
Mysterious and spooky
They're all together ooky
The Addams family
Their house is a museum
Where people come to see 'em
They really are a scream
The Addams family
Neat

Sweet
Petite

So get a witches shawl on

A broomstick you can crawl on

We're gonna pay a call on

The Addams family

This is it! My Hallowe'en costume for the year - Morticia Addams!

Winter Prints & Floral

When it's -20'C outside and I have to keep putting on my down coat and giant winter boots I start to get a little clothes-antsy.

Unintentional Hiatus and Jump(er) back in

So sorry friends! I took an unintentional hiatus there for a couple of weeks. Truth? My kids are out of school and I thought I could just go on with my life (HA! I know, right?) and honestly I spent about 95% of the last 2 weeks in either running shorts or my swimsuit since we've spent as much time as possible near the lake!

Flight of Fancy

Friday night I had the rare opportunity to go out for dinner without our kids! We went out to a local restaurant that's super popular (and so yummy) with my parents and Grandparents. It was nice to sit and enjoy a meal without having to tell someone not to... well.. whatever!

Red on Red on Red

I'm jumping into the Top Ten Remix challenge with both feet!

Letting my Nerd Flag Fly

So - at the end of this March Break I finally got to take my boys somewhere that I've been waiting to go to until they were "old" enough to appreciate it: Comicon!

Celebrating my Littlest Little

I can hardly believe it. My littlest is 5. FIVE!

Just Lucky

A little green to celebrate St. Patrick's day today!

Just a pop of obnoxious

Oh here we go again - I'm back with some obnoxiously bright tights!

Ladies' Night

One of the ladies from my church hosted a wonderful dinner for a few of us. She's an amazing cook and we had a great night of delicious food, great wine and fantastic company! (Thanks Michelle!)

Still Winter

This post is part Outfit of the Day and part Public Service Announcement.
Attention: despite what you may have seen in your blog feed, tumblr dash or facebook newsfeed - it is STILL WINTER.

Neglected

Some of my fave bloggers have been mentioning wearing some "neglected" clothing pieces lately... which made me think of this faux shearling moto type vest that's been hanging in my front closet.

Dressed up Loungewear

When I was younger I totally did not understand the concept of "loungewear". I mean, honestly - an entire type of clothing dedicated to.... uh... lounging? Of course, I had loungewear, but when I was a teen that consisted of basically my entire closet - comfy sweats, t-shirts, etc etc.

Weekend Away Date Night

The hubs and I were lucky to have a chance to get away for a weekend up in beautiful Huntsville, Ontario.

Navy and Wine

I love when I say the name of these two colours that they immediately make me think of drinking wine on a boat. Of course, I did neither of those things while wearing this outfit, but I still love those colours.

Plaid and denim

This plaid shirt is quickly becoming a wardrobe favourite for me. It has a great loose, comfortable cut, soft flannel fabric and yet enough structure to be worn on it's own and not look like I'm wearing my Dad's shirt (which I totally used to do, I'll admit it - it was the 90s....).

Christmas Comfort

As much as Christmastime is about dressing up, wearing new clothes and things and going to parties - it's also about eating WAY too much food and lounging about with family and friends. Sometimes you need a seriously comfortable, yet still chic outfit for the Christmas and Holiday season.

Family Gathering Chic

Tis the season for family gatherings. Which usually involve a lot of eating and laughing. Evenings like this require a definite standard of comfort in an outfit and this red sweater is one of the best pieces I've ever owned for a family get-together.

Mom's Night Out

I think pretty much any woman will admit - from day to day, women dress more for each other than we do to attract someone. So when going for my Mom's night out, I definitely wanted to look dressy without being too dressed up.

Go with the Flow

What is it about a flowy blouse? Maybe other women don't feel the same way about them as I do, but I have a serious love for flowy hemlines, empire waists and bell sleeves. Maybe I should've been born a couple of decades earlier, but at least there's a few tops out there that can satisfy my love for all things flowing.
