I am going to make a confession. After secretly passing judgement on those that admitted they watched it, I just started watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians and I am addicted. I have torn through season 1-6 and am on season 7, plus I have also watched the Kim and Kourtney spin-off’s. Cue embarrassment, should I hang my head in shame? Continue Reading →

It is my favourite accent colour for a home and I tend to find myself asking, “do you have it in yellow?” when I find something that I like in a store. Actually, I don’t ask that. I usually just go look for myself because I hate asking for help from salespeople even though I worked in retail for many years.

Outfit of the Day and Value Village Haul

Outfit of the Day 6 #ootd

Holy shit I look really short in this picture. I guess that is inescapable since I am actually not super tall but not as short as this makes me look.

I fall at 5’3″ just under the average 5’4″ – 5’7″ range.. It’s probably the boots that add to the shortness since they hit my knee but that is okay, I still love them.
