Bad Lighting

I very much wanted to get these photos outside so the lighting would actually be decent or, failing that, to set up my proper indoor lighting set up, but (unfortunately) it was not to be. It’s the time of year when it’s dark when I leave in the morning and already dark by the time I get home, so outside shots outside of weekends become pretty difficult, and it was a struggle getting Eleanor out the door this particular morning with no extra time to set up lighting. So the lighting sucks. Sigh. I’ll try to do better next time…

Cozy and Comfy

Just hanging out in the driveway in a comfy Zara coat. Zara is very dangerous for me lately, clearly. Oh, and I got some new leopard print shoes (a wardrobe must have in my book). I’m still breaking them in a bit but overall they are pretty comfy, which is a necessity for me in shoes.

Ruffle Me

Following up on my last post, I was also powerless to resist this silk dress with all these great ruffle details on the sleeve. Also Zara, and also less than $40. Casually walking past a Zara is clearly problematic for me…

I'm Powerless to Resist a Good Coat

I was literally powerless to resist this grey jacket when I stumbled across it at Zara for less than $40. I’m exceptionally pleased with my choice – and it’s proving a great closet addition as temperatures fall.

All the Frills: That's a Wrap on Halloween

Another Halloween (my absolute favourite time of year) has come and gone. Sigh. I truly had an amazing Halloween this year – watching a ton of scary movies, my Countess Luann costume, taking Eleanor (dressed as Garth from Wayne’s World (my helpmeet dressed as Wayne) trick or treating, a Happy Halloween headband/tiara that I got at the dollar store and wore non-stop, long walks to look at Halloween decorations, and my Maleficent costume. I miss it already…

Fall Plaids

Fall is in full swing over here and I am fully in my element. I loved being able to break out this plaid shawl after months of it hanging, unworn, in my closet.
