Leisure Lace...

Hi everyone! How were your weekends? Mine was pretty action-packed, including dinner with friends, drinks, and lots of running around... Fun! Yesterday was a little more relaxed though, which you can probably tell from my outfit. We took a nice walk through the park with a couple of friends from out of town, stopped by the petting zoo to check out all the cute animals (hello, baby goats!), and had some seriously delicious ice cream before calling it a day... What about you? Fill me in, lovelies! xx

Navajo Stripes...

I don't know what it is lately, but I'm really into mixing prints. Especially if they clash. What's my deal, you ask? Well my friends, I wish I could tell you... Maybe it's the unexpected way the eye reacts to prints that don't "match" by conventional standards. Maybe it's the strange looks these combos garner. Or maybe I'm just a weirdo. Who knows, maybe it's all three...

Happy weekending, lovelies! xx

Print Mixer...

Hi loves! I'm writing this post at warp speed before heading to Vancouver for the weekend... I'm not even packed or dressed yet, and I have an 11am date with the ferry (it's 9:30!), so needless to say I'm in a bit of a hurry. Anyway, I'll leave you with some pics taken last week on a lazy, frozen yogurt-filled afternoon... Enjoy your weekends!!! xx

Pink, Blue & a Graffiti Wall or Two...

Hi lovelies! We took these photos last week while strolling around downtown Victoria in search of jobs... Although we didn't find any that day, we did, however, find the perfect backdrop for photos. This little alley boasts privacy (as far as downtown alleys go), graffiti and amazing afternoon light... What more could you ask for, you say? Well how about a little background info!

Evidently this alley is where shackled prisoners were led to the gallows, and is supposed to be haunted by not only them, but by a small boy who fell down an adjacent well many moons ago when Victoria was still a fort... Cool, huh? I guess I've been on a fair share of ghost tours in my day.

Black, White & Tan...

The other day Mr. AIF and I ventured down to Victoria's Fisherman's Wharf to get some seafood for dinner, and this is what I wore... It seemed like a perfectly good idea at the time, but I didn't bank on all the incredulous stares my pants would garner when I put them on that morning. Who knows, maybe people thought they were pajama pants or something... Regardless, they weren't exactly well received. I guess it's a good thing I can handle a strange look or two in the name of fashion, huh?

Wayfarers and Jumpers...

Well hello! How is everyone today? I'm about to go shopping with my mumsy (fun!), so needless to say I'm pretty excited... But before I do, I'll leave you with some pics taken a couple of days ago while exploring/enjoying the glorious sunshine.

We ventured up Gonzales Hill, which boasts one of Victoria's best views... There's a strange, stark white building there (I think it was a weather station or something), which proved to be a great backdrop for photos... And if you can remember back that far, I've actually taken photos there before!

Anyhoo, that's enough about me, what are you guys getting up to today? I wanna know! xx

Colour Coated...

Why hello there! How are all my lovelies doing today? I'm at the point of my cold where my nose is all raw and peely, so I'm pretty much a sight for sore eyes... Luckily it doesn't show in these pics from yesterday though (thank you, coverup!), so you guys will be spared the gory details. *Phewf*

I've worn all these pieces on AIF before, but never together like this... It was one of those outfits that you put together and then hum and haw over trying to figure out if you like it or not. In the end I still wasn't sure, but I figured I would just go with it anyway... Hey, why not?

The clutch was a newly thrifted purchase, complete with adorable old-lady lining and partitions specifically labeled for "documents," "travellers cheques," and of course, one's "passport." How cute is that? Now if only there was a fabulous vacation in my near future, I would be all set...
