Thoughtfully Blue

(Jeans- AG, Blouse- Modcloth, Sweater and Flats- Anthropologie)

Sometimes my drawings are so thoughtful that I have to add an actual thought bubble to show how introspective I am. I'm so deep.

Yes, this is another blouse that has kitties on it. And bees on my shoes too. For those of you who know the Binky books, I'm being very clever and thematic. For those of you who don't know the Binky books, I look like a nutbar.

Neutral Times

(Blouse- Madewell, Belt- Aritizia, Skirt- Anthropologie,
Bracelet- J Crew, Shoes- Winners)

I finally do a post and it's all neutrals (which means it's super easy paint.) I can only be satisfied wearing neutral colours if I'm doing a good ole' pattern clash. If my outfit isn't slightly migraine inducing, then I'm not dressed right.

Man, I love long skirts.

And then I was in Toronto...


Hey sports fans, so I've been off and away in Toronto doing school visits and attending the forest of reading celebrations. Unfortunately I not only returned with armloads full of shiny new clothes, but also with a wicked cold. So instead of showing off my rumbled pj's, I figured I'd show off some outfits and sweet deals that I rocked while I was away.

Hope to be dressing like a real live person soon...

Summer Stripes

(Dress- Gap, Belt- J Crew, Scarf- Winners, Shoes- Anthro)

A few decades ago I wore this dress because we had one day of summer! It's so over now, but thankfully the ticks are here to stay. Yipee.

Anyway, I tried out the striped dress thing. Didn't think I could rock this look at my advanced age, but I think I managed to pull it off. And if I didn't, so what? It was two weeks ago. I've moved on.

For Vera


(Blazer- Aritzia, Jeans- Fidelity, Blouse- Modcloth,
Necklace and Flats- Anthropologie)


I was in BC last week doing school visits and this was one of the outfits I was sporting. I didn't look quite so porcupine-ish, but my friend Vera requested that I get spiky and so I did. (If you have any animals you would like to see me as, please, drop me a line and let me know.)

And yes, that is a kitty blouse. Why don't all clothes have a cat print on them? Oh yeah, because some people interpret "cat print" as an oversized sweater with a Hallmark painting of kittens screened onto the front. People ruin everything.

Ratshley

Jeans- AG, Sweater- Gap, Blouse- J Crew, Shoes- Anthro, Tail- the "vitamins" they put in milk

I'm sick of drawing me. I'm boring. You know what isn't boring? Drawing animals! So from now on I will put animals in my clothes. May or may not work. But that's what blogging is all about. Sharing your mistakes with the world. Enjoy.

Poor Moose...

Okay, this weekend was about pastel colours, bunnies and chocolate, but I've not drawn any of those lately. I HAVE drawn a frustrated Moose who can't ride a skateboard, which, let's face it, depicts the true meaning of Christmas  Easter.

Yay Bunnies!
