Hello friends - its been a while, but Ive started the process of moving my blog. Soon, it will have its own domain name!Until then, please follow me at HERE.See you there!
Its official - spring is here! Its only March 15, but Toronto is seeing insanely warm temperatures... +19 degrees today - and its starting to give me spring fever. While no-buy February was a success...
Coloured denim - everywhere you look, stores and magazines are pushing brightly coloured denim down our throats for summer 2012. I have to admit that I instantly taken with the idea of brightly-colou...
A little late, I admit, but better late than never!Ive never been into Valentines Day - discount chocolate on the 15th is pretty much the best part. However, with a special someone in my life this ye...
Ive often looked at other bloggers outfits and thought - "could I do that?" and "OOOOH I like what shes done there..." but it usually goes nowhere. Today, however, I thought Id take m...
Weve had an extremely mild winter here in Toronto - so much so that Ive been wearing lighter clothes throughout February. Oh sure, theres the occasional cold snap and freezing night with snow, but it...
Ive never worn much red - it doesnt seem to work in my head the way green, yellow and blue do. I associate red with accents, but for some reason Ive never purchased a red necklace, or painted my nail...
Its been a while since my last "FLASH" update, so I thought Id take some time to pass on a few of my current favourites. This also involves one of my most-loved activities - list making! Hone...

I vow, for one month from 1st Feb, to avoid shopping for anything other than essentials. Inspired by Gemma of Big Girls Browse, Im taking part in Frugal February. This is a great chance for me ...
I dont own a suit - I own bits of suits. When I interviewed for my last job, I bought a black blazer and trousers for the interview. They werent a set, but they matched and I made it work - it was bo...
Have you ever been given a piece of clothing and thought "YECCHHH. Definitely not wearing this..." but were obligated to hang onto it, out of courtesy? Its happened a few times to me, though ...
Ive been hoping to find a neon piece for my wardrobe for some time - the trend has been around for a number of years, popping up in neo-rave clothes circa 2007 and becoming a key runway trend of spri...
Another week, another set of instagram photos. Its been a busy week, though thankfully the snow has been sporadic here in Toronto and allowed me to run errands around the city. 1. Delicious pseudo-...
A quick outfit byte - this time, accessories-focused. I purchased this necklace in Budapest with my friend Haley back in October - it seems like ages ago! Anyways - its a lot of metal and chain aroun...
A little late this time round, but well worth it. Ive often been intrigued by pattern mixing - yes, magazines make it seem all easy-like when you have access to loud prints, but from a plus-size angl...
Another office outfit post here: this time, its all about the layers and cold weather wardrobe. Keeping warm while office-appropriate can be tricky, given the tendency to bundle and swathe oneself in...
Ive always been inspired by Nicolette Masons gorgeous instagram posts - they just seem to make ordinary situations and moments seem gorgeous and magical. It must be the filters. Yes friends, Ive drun...
Ive been waiting to participate in Pretty Shiny Sparklys Bloggers Do It Better challenges for a few months, but it seems like I always miss the window! Or else its something that I refuse to work wit...
Hello friends - Im back from the brink of illness. I ended up with tonsillitis, which knocked me out for about a week (though with tiredness and all, I was feeling crappy for about two weeks!). Thank...
Brief update today, as Im stuck at home with tonsillitis. Probably the worst Ive felt in quite some time... making oatmeal and tea, watching Christmas movies and re-reading "Fellowship of the Rin...
Bit of a change for todays office outfit - I broke out the heels this morning. I dont typically wear high heels - bad ankles and lack of balance has meant Ive never exactly been comfortable, and I wa...
A few weeks ago, my favourite fall/early winter coat died. Kaput. It was a white wool-blend coat that didnt look so white... too many fuzzly-bizzly thingies. Yes, thats real thing.In any case, I need...
Today was a casual day - despite being Thursday. I ran errands around the city, renting a zipcar and generally flying by the seat of my pants. After all the driving and errand-ing, I had to spend the...

I was sent a pair of "wet look" (aka fake leather) leggings by Addition Elle a few weeks ago. Its difficult to fit them into my wardrobe, but I like the insta-sexy they bring to the table. Iv...
