You know the saying “ask and you shall receive”  [who am I kidding, of course you have, its biblical ... literally]. WELL … I’ve asked for many, many, maaaannnnyy, things in my life, probably more “things” than anyone else, hence why I was on a bad streak of resistance. But I would like to inform you, it seems as though it is all turning around. New projects are opening up my eyes, the tasks being given to me are potentially, [fingers crossed] going to soon, become more challenging, and lets just hope, a little, that BlogTO gets back to me.

This past weekend was Thanksgiving in Canada [FYI if you are a UK//US reader] and it also happens to be many pupils favorite holiday here. The reason, simple. Besides spending it with family and friends, our lovely North becomes so colorful it sparkles. You can’t argue that the photo’s in today’s post aren’t to some degree magical. There is something whimsical and undoubtedly luminance about them. This makes me so thankful that God created such a wonderful world we live in. I spent the day gazing at the beauty of the simple things.
I went out Friday evening to a friends surprise birthday dinner, she had no idea and was flabbergasted at the venue of choice. We went to dinner and a show, only the show was belly dancers whom danced around our tables as we sipped Australian wine, laughed and snapped photo’s.

I took these up north on Saturday [I think?] long weekends get my frizzled and I never actually remember what day is what. I am still amazed at the colour’s it is blowing my mind even looking at them now. The shoes I am wearing are vintage Prada’s. I picked these up at a tiny little vintage shoppe up North, that has recently closed down. I am devistatesd and don’t think I can say any more about the issue, only, I WAS A REGULAR AND THEY NEVER EVEN CALLED TO TELL ME THEY WERE CLOSING!!! [rant. over.]

I had a wonderful weekend and I hope you did too, no matter where you were I am sure it was spectacular. Happy Thanksgiving, even if it is over, I still know I have a ton to be thankful for.

HA! Nothing like a bold statement like that to wake you up on this beautifully gorgeous fall day!!

Yessssss I am aware I fell of the face of the earth, no worries though, this weekend may just be the best weekend for weather the world has ever seen, the trees are gorgeous up north, and come Saturday afternoon I will be dressed to the nine’s snapping some incredible photo’s. This I promise you.

This post is un-related to me, (imagine?) and has everything to do with the wonderful Cynthia Rowley. Besides being an innovator of fashion. She is also, like many celebrity fashion designer esq types, plugging her name to a different brand … this brand however, unconventional.

Cynthia Rowley has teamed up with BAND-AID!!

I know this sounds ridiculously funny, but these band-aids are really quite adorable, affordable, and hold a giant purpose.

You see, I am a stickler for the Hello Kitty baind-aids because I figure, if you’re going to see it, it may as well be cute, a beige, half worn, ragged band-aid on the heel of your stiletto is not sexy ladies, so take a tip from me, or Cynthia!! Click here for more info, the box of these fab finds are only $10, you may think that is ridiculous for 20 Band-Aids but a regular beige box is $7.50, which would you rather sport?

I will let you know when my order comes in!! Eeeek!!
