Snapshots

Some people have been asking if my last post was my triumphant return to blogging or if it was a sad goodbye... umm, I don't know? I definitely miss posting here and I definitely miss all the people (I've totally been lurking on everyone else's blogs for the last few months). If I was to carry on here, I think this blog would change to something more personal - less fashion news and less dealing with clothing companies (they give me headaches, to be honest) because I was never good at that stuff really, the blogs in my blog roll at the top of the page all do that stuff better.

While I figure some things out (and your thoughts on all this are welcome) I thought I'd share some pictures of what I've been up to during my absence.


This is my husband and I in front of the Halifax skyline. I'm feeling really settled here now, I'm in love with the city - it's big enough that interesting things happen and small enough that you see people you know whenever you're out and about. Getting used to Canada has taken a really long time but I feel like I belong here now.


Skating! This is a picture of one of my very first outings with my rollerskates. My friends want me to try out for a roller derby team but I still don't think I'm ready. My balance is getting better all the time though and I'm getting faster too. Right now though it's winter so I'm trying to get the hang of ice skating.


My best friend Mif and I in the zombie walk in downtown Halifax last summer. I was yelling "braaains" so much I lost my voice. I had cool makeup that made it look like flesh was rotting off my arms and neck, but you can't see it in this picture.


Having a Monroe moment in a Ruby Belle dress I bought second hand from Katrin. I just really like this picture.


This one is from christmas. My dad always dresses up as Santa to visit the school where my mum works and hand out presents. I was home for the holidays so I was drafted in as an elf. I had a lot of fun as Santa's mute sidekick, my duties included carrying Santa's sack and waving a lot.

The most exciting thing that happened to me though was becoming an aunty, my nephew AJ is gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous.

What have you all been up to in the past few months?

    1. Thanks so much for sending it to me! It was my absolute favourite dress of summer, I wore it pretty well everywhere. I probably will again once the snow melts. (but you were totally adorable in it, silly)
