You dirty switch, you're on again.


So, I saw Harry Potter in theatres again last night – I think my enthusiasm for the series is becoming borderline obsessive. This time, I was the annoying person in the theatre pointing out the discrepancies between the book and the movies. Oops, my bad.

I thought I’d try some clever yet subtle pattern mixing in this outfit, (flowers and hearts!) but the floral pattern on the shirt got kind of washed out by the picture. However, I promise you it’s lovely! I’ve had the Western-style belt since I was in my nine year old “horse crazy” phase and fancied myself an equestrienne. I was even in the official Ontario Appaloosa Club or whatever it’s called these days.

My Velouria


Hey, it's my day off - I figured I might as well dress outrageously as possible while I've got the chance! We had a ripping thunderstorm today and our power went out for a couple hours, so I shacked up with some blankets and read Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. The movie may have been epic, but nothing really compares to the books.

Gunk


I wore this outfit to work on Thursday - most of the outfits I wear on the weekend don't deserve their own outfit post. Which happens to remind me of how much I staunchly disagree with this Alexander Wang quote: "Anyone can get all dressed up and glamorous, but it is how people dress in their off days, that are the most intriguing." Honestly, If I thought you guys would be intrigued by sweatpants, then I'd be better off not writing a "fashion blog" now wouldn't I? Sure there are some people whose version of dressing down doesn't involve looking like crap, but I on the other hand would never feel compelled to dress well if I wasn't allowed an off day once in a while. Gimme a break, I'm a not a soulless fashion cyborg!

But that doesn't mean I don't appreciate shoes (et cetera) more than the average person. This particular pair was thrifted last summer, and I haven't found a better looking (or fitting) pair of vintage t-straps since!

Rob Pattinson Talks About Edward Cullen

------------------------------------------------------------COVENTRY TELEGRAPH: Rob Pattinson, 23, who has just beaten Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp to the title of Sexiest Man on the Planet in a vote in Glamour magazine, says he thinks his Twilight character would be an axe murderer if he existed in real life. Pattinson told OK! Magazine he feels the character isn’t as nice as his fans think: “It’s

I'm just looking for one divine hammer.


TGIF! If there's anyone out there who is as excited as I am to finally sleep in after an exhausting work week, then raise your hands in the air! This weekend is going to be all about freash air and green pastures. Not to mention, the elusive practice of "sleep" is looking like sheer excellence to me right now. And speaking of sheer excellence, that sentiment can certainly applied to many things including the Worn Journal blog post about my adventures with Anna, wearing Minor Threat t-shirts to work and owning a skirt that cost you 50 cents and just happens too look like the badass new Pendleton for Opening Ceremony coats that are coming out this fall. Do you think it'd be going overboard if I wore them together? If only I could afford it!

Blown to hell, crash.


Wow, that was the most insane/bizarre/awkward weekend of my life. Sorry for the lack of posts, I think I needed some time to recover. But I did get to hang out with fellow adorable blogger Anna, who is super rad!

White, grey and a vintage Gucci monogram purse! I scored it off eBay, and its authenticity is dubious (the seller had 100% positive feedback and there is a serial number, but I did my research after receiving it in the mail and apparently there are a lot of fakes out there that look exactly like this one...) but I like how it looks so I'll wear it whether it's real or not - albeit, with a rather disappointed face.


From now on I'll stick to buying CDs and baggy t-shirts on eBay because shoes and designer bags are just too much of a gamble. I mean, you just never know!
