gnomes :)

anyone seen the ads for gnomeo & juliet?  i've had an obsession with gnomes since i was about six years old, i asked my mom to put some in our yard for years. when i was thirteen i painted one with my best friend at one of those pottery places and we named him mcgillicutty.  needless to say, this movie is one thing i am definitely looking forward to this year.

here are some wonderful little gnome wants on etsy

blonde's have more fun

i love when i'm blonde. i, like most have had every "natural" hair colour known to mankind, and i'm always happiest when i'm blonde. the problem is, my hair pulls gold. going blonde is quite the process. today has been a day of frustration and tears (yes i'm dramatic) but tomorrow all will be well.

ta-da! my yellow, in between hair!

business casual...?

so i (sort of) recently moved back home, to the beautiful little town of fernie, british columbia.  i lived in calgary and victoria for a while, but nothing compares to the mountains!  after doing nothing but sewing and reading for months and months (i know, living the life hehe) i decided i need to get a job.  i've worked supervisory positions at every job i've had but they all tended to be fast food or movie stores and i never had to worry about the uniform as it was provided. getting back into the workforce with a desk job is proving difficult regarding clothes, my closet is empty of anything professional. while browsing urban outfitters, i came across these gems!  might stop by the store when i visit edmonton this weekend for the edmonton oilers vs nashville predators (yay!) but more on that later.
