Split Decision Pie Pan

I'm sorry I've been gone so long! And that I have not yet regailed you with stories form Milan and Paris. I've been working every night until 9 or 10pm, and just don't have the energy to turn on the computer when I get home, but I found something really amazing to make it up to you. THIS. Come on, this is just AMAZING. Forgive me?

The Solution...

Wicked words of wisdom. Love it.

P.S. I'm back from Paris, and wildly back into the swing of work. So much work. Trip update tomorrow if I don't fall asleep at 9pm. I blame jetleg. And working too much. And the shorter days.

More Fall Maxi Skirts!

I found some more great maxi skirt looks to give y'all an idea about what I was talking about yesterday. Looks good, eh?

Maxi Skirt for Fall

I love seeing the maxi skirt style coming out for fall. This look here form Forever 21 combines two current wants into one look. The blouse and the maxi skirt. Soon to be additions to my closet?

Olivia Leather Flat

These might be the perfect shoes for fall! To work or to play. I completely wore out my last pair of black pointy toe flats. These would make a lovely replacement!

Packing for Paris

Did I mention I'm going to Paris tomorrow? Well, I am! And because I am me, I have had my packing list done for a while, but now I am actually packing! After work. Before going out. Hm. Might have planned that better. I'm going to rush and forget my toothbrush again, aren't I? What am I planning on packing? Right now I'm considering taking all seven of my striped tees. I have a stripe problem! Add in a couple pairs of shoes, a fashionable trench, and a scarf or two and I'm pretty much ready to go, right? Am I forgetting something?

Happy Birthday Little Man

Oh my gosh golly! It's my little brother's 19th birthday!! 19? How did he get so old? You see, he used to be so small I could pick him up and turn him upside down. (He liked it, I swear.) And now, well, he's very near a grown up! Much taller than me, but still my little brother!

Now that the temperature is starting to drop I'm grudging looking forward to fall. I DO love fall, with apple cider, and sweaters, changing leaves and the smell of fire places, it's just that I ALSO love summer, sundresses, and not wearing a jacket. That being said, living in Canada, four seasons are inevitable, so I try and make the best of it. I like looking back at the Fall collections to see what we will be seeing on the street. I love the look Marc Jacobs put out for his gentlemen. Spiffy. Very spiffy.

Rainbow Polka Dot Bowls

How very cheery! What a great way to wake up and face the day? Almost makes you want to jump out of bed to rush to your bowl of cereal (or granola, or yogurt, or overnight oats, or whatever floats your boat in the AM). Well, almost. Today, I just wanted to hide under the covers when the alarm went off, but then again, I don't own any bowls like this!

Weekend Update

Guys, I am VERY excited as my dear friend and past roomie Lady M will be arriving ANY MINUTE! She's staying with me for the weekend, and we're going to have a lot of fun. I have cleaned the kitchen and the bathroom in preperation for her visit (that's friendship for you!), and now I wait while my clothes are in the drying (rain storm on the scooter ride home). I can't wait for this weekend! Not only is Lady M here from Ottawa, but two friends of mine from uni are getting married, and people are flying in from all over the country for the wedding! Fun fun fun! Dressing up, making pizza, dancing, shopping, glasses of bubbly, celebrating love, and maybe a trip to rib fest? Yes, quite a (long) weekend planned! I hope you all have a blast!
