Thursday.. Thing...ies?

Totally meant to do a "tidbits" post on Tuesday, but I got side-tracked with knitting and re-watching the first season of The L Word. You know - super-important stuff. So, a few days late, but here you are, my favourite recent links: I thought maybe Lilo looked a bit better... Continue reading

Roundup: Strapless Swimwear

A little while ago (okay, almost three months ago) Corey asked me to do a post with some ideas for strapless swimwear. See, Corey's getting hitched this summer, and doesn't want to end up with tan lines in her (gorgeous) strapless wedding dress. At first, I had good reason to... Continue reading

It's Vamlumtimes!

Well, I found a way to combine my love of glitter, theme holidays, colour blocking, and manicures all into one super awesome evening activity. Sure, it might not be the classiest manicure ever, but I still love it. Here are my tools: I layered the red glitter over top of... Continue reading

So... What's Up?

Apparently I haven't blogged since Jan 1. Awesome. BUT I have a few pretty good reasons: Until yesterday, I didn't have a laptop. But now, I have this cute new netbook! Sure, he's tiny, but he still gets it done (yes, I wrote it that way on purpose). And don't... Continue reading

Advent Calendar 2011: December 20

Holy eff, guys. I only have four more posts left before Christmas. WHERE DID THE MONTH OF DECEMBER GO?!?!?!?! Luckily, I started my vacation today. So far, it's been amazing. Catching up with friends, getting Christmassy errands done, and generally enjoying my time off. Perfect! Another perk of being done... Continue reading

Once again, today's gorgeous Christmas decorations are courtesy of my HLP Fiona. She actually didn't send along her favourite part of the holidays with her pictures, so I'm gonna have to make something up... Today she was Christmas tree hunting with her family and friends. This is something that they... Continue reading

Late again. Those who follow me on Twitter will know why. I blame one Ms. Catherine Adams (although Wes and D-Bag were definitely accomplices). Today's Christmas decorations are courtesy of my friend Fiona. While she didn't provide me with a description of the decorations, I believe that this is from... Continue reading

Today's picture is courtesy of my friend and fellow knitting club member Beth. Here's what she had to say about her gingerbread train: "Thanks to a project at school, my older kid is now obsessed with decorating a Gingerbread man. When we went to the store to get a kit,... Continue reading

In case you were worried that there might be a square inch of my apartment not decorated for Christmas, here are my little wooden friends that adorn the side tables in my living room. Say hello to my little friends to enjoy today's holiday treat (don't worry guys, it's calorie-free...) Continue reading

Nobody escapes holiday cheer at my apartment. Case in point? Cleo is decked out in her holiday finest. I'm pretty sure this is what she's wearing to the Deb Said No Christmas party. Because she and Maury are the only pther "employees", I think it makes sense to have it... Continue reading

Insert yet another apology for my tardiness here. I'm awful at this blogging thing this year. Hopefully the next few weeks will be better? The picture below is of one of my favourite Christmas decorations. It belonged to my grandmother's best friend Eva. I always loved it growing up. It... Continue reading

Today's door is courtesy of my friend hoodie. The lovely wreath you see there was a DIY project, and she - well, actually I'll let her tell you about it: "Funny story with this wreath. I spent an hour or so DIY'ing this wreath. Found a tutorial on Pinterest and... Continue reading

I got to spend this morning catching up with one of my very favourite families - the Everretts. I met Corey in high school, and I'm so glad that we've managed to remain close ever since. After a delicious breakfast of blueberry pancakes and one of our marathon catch-up sessions,... Continue reading

Yeah, I'm behind again. I think I'm a special kind of insane to commit to blogging daily during the busiest time of the year. Sorry for the delay. But don't worry - I'm doing not one, not two, but three festive posts tonight. Well, technically I'm writing three tonight, but... Continue reading

Man. I'm really failing hard at having these posted in the morning. I wish I had a better excuse then "I've been really tired and busy", but... well... I've been really tired and busy. Anyway, I'm once again out of door pics, but I harrassed a couple friends today so... Continue reading

Today's door is from my friend (and fellow derby girl) SBB. As with Meredith's yesterday, this wreath is a DIY creation, made with yarn from her stash. All of these pretty DIY projects make me think I need to get on the crafting wagon... Open SBB's door to see today's...... Continue reading

Advent Calendar 2011: December 7

Today's festive door is courtesy of my amazing friend Meredith of Designed By Mere (shop, blog). Meredith's wreath is homemade, and was inspired by this tutorial (or, at least, a picture from this tutorial). The gold bits? They're thumbtacks. Genius, non? Well, Mere is being pretty modest about her wreath.... Continue reading

My friends are awesome. After my not-so-subtle nagging, I've since received a few more pictures of decorated doors. I love you guys! (and not just for this - it's because you're all awesome in general) Today's door belongs to my friend Karla. She and her boyfriend recently moved into their... Continue reading

You'll notice a theme developing: I really need pictures of your decorated doors... Instead of a door, today's picture is of a Christmassy decoration that I made for my mom a few years ago. I knit a sparkly red tube, and then sewed it onto the vase and filled it... Continue reading

Guys. I am so off schedule with this! I'm seriously the worst. I'm doing this post and then right after I'm doing tomorrow's so that I can get back to the proper cadence. In the spirit of things being all switched around and topsy-turvy today (and also because I don't... Continue reading
