I took a mini break from this hear blog – sorry about that. The break wasn’t because I wanted to, more because I had to, but it gave me some down time to really think about WTF I am doing with my blog. I mean, for me – my blog is just a diary of my tangents regarding thrifted treasures, vintage from my gran and another pair of $500 shoes I probably can’t really afford, and I like my blog that way – people have weighed in on my blog stating that I reveal too much, that my grammar is poor (no kidding – I write the way I speak not the way you want me to), and recently – I’ve had a few quips about my photography (which, by the way, I take myself and take pride in that, I don’t want a photographer), but alas it’s easy for me to brush it off, as I still maintain that I blog for me. I think my next post will be about just that.
Until then, life has been insane (will fill you all in), but in the same capacity, the good comes with the bad. I have been asked to represent MasterCard in their Stylicity program again for Toronto Fashion Week. So be sure to look for that – I am as excited as they seem to be to have me back – which is such a pleasure!
This outfit is what I wore to Thanksgiving last weekend with my grandparents – just a small casual dinner with the most delicious Turkey on earth. I really am spoiled to have a family who loves to cook! Safe to say my food coma lasted me the entire weekend up north. The trees are all turning and the crisp air made sleeping that much better. I had copious amounts of wine, had a blast with my boyfriends family hiking up Blue Mountain and loved the fact that I hardly touched my cell phone.
I hope all my Canadian friends had a chance to disconnect and re-connect with your adoring families. Until next week.

great outfit. Something I would definitely wear.
Don’t sweat the blog grammar. You and I are in the same boat haha We’re not writing a novel here people! Keep your head up!
i dislike reading blogs with perfect grammar. no one talks that way and it never feels real. i love your style. keep it up!
Your Blog is great. Who cares about what some people think, your style is unique and fresh, and your photos are great. I jut started my blog and it’s gonna take me ages to figure that stuff out.
Amazing days!!
I LOVE this look! It’s so good to see you posting again!
If you ever want help with grammar, or just even someone to look over what you write, I would be more than happy to help. I currently do it for a couple of other blogs for free to try and build up a client list.

That looks like such a comfortable outfit, perfect for Turkey dinners
and It’s still super cute.
Your blog is exactly that, yours! so do what makes you happy on it otherwise you won’t want to continue with it
xx
This is why you stand out and shine! So true and so adorable. Can’t wait for what’s next! XO
I can’t believe readers are berating your grammar and photography, do they have nothing better to do? I love your blog! Don’t change a thing!
I could honestly say that your blog is one of the few ones I read and come back to visit each time. There’s something about you that I like — and I bet it is the REAL you. We all go through times wherein we question our blogs or the purpose of it but believe it or not, if you are passionate about something, if it is your element, no one can ever take it away from you. And remember, you’re not in the Top 15 Canadian Fashion Blogs for nothing! Love you, girl x
Oh people just love to hate, don’t they? I recently popped up on GOMI and they were bashing me too. You just have to remember why you started this in the first place and stay true to yourself. I have always loved your outfits, your amazing vintage finds and I think your pictures are gorgeous! Glad you’re back from your break and can’t wait to hear more about this amazing new opportunity you’ve got!! xo
Love your skirt!
