The first day of fall is September 22...that was a bit over two weeks ago. How am I already feeling nostalgic of something that was so recent? I miss images of boyfriend Eric covering himself up while we tan, watching the drawbridge in Port Stanley go up and down, marble slab trips with Jerrica, I miss seeing brides in parks, movie nights in my bed with a bag pure sugar goodness with Jerri, all the time in the world with Jerri, going to the theatre lots, picnics, road trips, cottage life, the smell of Hawaiian Tropic, polo matches, weddings, watching Grayson discover grass, seeing Jer in her beautiful prom dress, teaching kids how to sing, discovering new people in new countries, Colombia, wearing sandals, eating breakfast on the porch, Helen Shaw park, beach, making bikinis, having my Eric live only 15 minutes away, seeing the Andes mountains, Stratford, making lists of things to accomplish with Ayla...that always get put off due to comfy beds and pillow talks, days of endless family fun, "Phew...It's hot out here!" cakes....<br /></div><br />I figure I'm going against all modesty in posting a bikini-picture...I have never posted a photo of myself in 'swimwear' in the internet. But then I thought: any scandalousness was compensated for with my face.<br /><br />Oh, by the way, I'm avoiding studying right now.<div class="blogger-post-footer">.dropcaps {

It ended up looking far more <span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">formal </span>than previously planned, but I <span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">have </span>come to like it more than what was in my head! Lol. I have been sewing lots and making lots of my own creations. But I have a problem: I just want to know <span style="font-style: italic;">everything</span>...and um, <u>now</u>. I still have so much to learn when it comes to sewing, I <span style="font-style: italic;">do</span> know the foundations,...but there is so much still to learn. The <span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">learning </span>part is proving to somehow, be pretty <s>tedious and monotonous</s> fun...when in most cases, frustration muddies my drive to fully learn certain things. :) | I have come to learn in the past year or so that I have very lacking patience. Whether I'm <span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">waiting </span>for a divine sign to tell me what to do with my life or waiting for my nails to dry, (I am notorious for messing up my nails in every single painting session. You'd think i would learn to sit still? Too many sparkley things sit in my room that I just <span style="font-style: italic;">need </span>to touch.) I <span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">itch </span>to just have it done or understood. Similarly, in sewing, I want to just "get it". BUT, alas, I will let my better judgment take over on this one: to stick with it. Because <span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">I truly do love it </span>and the results totally outweigh any small streak <s>hours</s> of frustration.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Take That</span> is my inspiration.

Kensington Market has the most exciting and fresh things to offer. From vintage finds, to activist rallies, to organic fair trade pieces, to exotic cheese. It definitely <span style="font-style: italic;">isn't</span> the smell that draws you in, but the excitment of choosing one of the <span style="font-style: italic;">hundreds </span>of cheeses they have at Cheese Magic. I l♥ve this area: Sitting around and watching people go in and out of Hot Box Cafe (usually very slowly), talking to Swedish fellows who wear matching denim jackets and trousers (and shoes.), and deciding whether or not to spend the extra $2.75 and streetcar it to Bloor because you're in <s>really motherfreaking uncomfortable</s>.....pretty flats or walk because you get to feel so tall in Chinatown.<br /><br />I got this vintage dress (a la mid-50's) at <a style="color: rgb(0, 204, 204);" href="http://www.bungalow.to/Default.asp?id=7&l=1">Bungalow</a>. Fits like a glove and it's next to flawless! The raw mint colour screams summer garden party and lemonade spritzers by the pool. I feel delicate in it. It's cute.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">dress | bungalow vintage<br />cream belt | vintage</span><div class="blogger-post-footer">.dropcaps {

Crazy!<br /><br /><a href="http://blog.polyvore.com/">http://blog.polyvore.com/</a><br /><br />This is bad. (I was doing <span style="font-style: italic;">great </span>for <span style="font-style: italic;">so </span>long, having put p-vore on the backburner for at least the first <span style="font-size:78%;">couple weeks</span> of the summer.) It's like dangling a carrot, or maybe in this case, a Christian Louboutin heel, right in front of me, right before I start my new job. It's only going to further propel my already deteriorating affinity for schoolwork and um, work in general. I have had this love affair with polyvore for about a year now. I'm doing okay, not great, but okay. Every day gets easier. In the beginning, I was spending, <s>2</s>, <s>5</s>, <s>7</s>, 16 hours straight on it, pairing shoes with cute jumpers...then it became backgrounds matched with each earring and every accessory. That was when I knew I had a problem. I couldn't focus anymore.<br />But, I'm on the road to recovery and though I still struggle in exam season, sometimes hitting 10 to 15 sets a day, I've got a lotta hope.<div class="blogger-post-footer">.dropcaps {

I find it bewildering that these two started their design resume by, in a way, 'recycling' clothing; they made an effort to reconstruct and deconstruct old<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"> and </span></span></span></span>new garments in their early years.

So, I'll refrain from further judgment until the next collection! I love that with the flagship collection, I am drawn to the line's neutral colours and femine angles, but always end up falling in love with one of their surprise pieces; This year for me it is their cut-out, kind-of persimmon orange, token dress </span><span style="font-family: lucida grande;font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;" ><a href="http://nymag.com/fashion/fashionshows/2006/spring/main/london/womenrunway/preen/#slide2&ss1">here</a></span><span style="font-family: lucida grande;font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;" > and have always loved their sweetheart </span><span style="font-family: lucida grande;font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;" ><a href="http://nymag.com/fashion/fashionshows/2006/spring/main/london/womenrunway/preen/#slide2&ss1">rose sundress</a></span><span style="font-family: lucida grande;font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;" > that dates back to Spring 2006.

A lot. While I mostly enjoy coming up with creations compiled of thrift store finds and cheap pearls, I have a very real and romantic love for high fashion.Gucci's Spring/Summer 2009 Collection this year has me. (Well, technically last year if you count in designer years.) (It technically was first born a year ago, early June - If you're not ahead, you're behind I guess!) Not always being a fan of Gucci, I was absolutely stunned. Considering that it was the RTW line, this may explain my attraction. I want to wear every piece. ~ I think Gucci struggled during the "reign" of Alessandra Facchinetti who produced far too many metallics for anyone's health and simply lacked the 'oomph' factor Tom Ford had previously propagated. On the bright side, along came Frida Giannini! Personally, she has recently grown on me...</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:130%;" >however</span><span style=";font-family:lucida grande;font-size:130%;" >, she is, to this day, still fighting for the props she deserves.

It takes a l-o-n-g mother time to be even slightly appreciated, and you better produce your collections 8 years in advance!). Needless to say, when the Spring/Summer Collection was released, my heart shuttered: I love everything about it - and it has been a while since I have truly loved and enjoyed something from Gucci. The bright, exotic colours and the safari-esk backbone to the line have such a fun result on the entire "semblance" of the show.

I probably wear it far more often than one consciously should. If you can get your hands on a solid belt like this, lighter shades of brown or tan are more flexible, you can pair it with next to anything.
