blocky

homemade dress, old navy top, thrifted jacket, bag, scarf, belt and boots

When I found this jacket it was wrinkled almost beyond recognition but I loved the stitching and the pointy collar so I got it anyway. After putting it through the wash it's not wrinkly any more but it's still not in perfect condition by a long shot. This is the sad thing about having a primarily thrifted/vintage wardrobe! Old things need TLC and if the person who owned it before you didn't give it any you're kinda out of luck. You can't reverse the ravages of time!!

I made the dress from Rookie, like I said I was going to (my mom helped a lot) and I'm really happy with it! It's very cozy.

Another perk of going home is seeing this dude again. One of the best cats around!

Happy long Easter weekend!! I missed out on it last year when I worked on weekends. Did you know Easter Sunday isn't a stat holiday? Rough, eh?

I'm heading up east for some relaxation and a tasty Easter dinner. I also bought 8 men's shirts on the cheap so I can make this Rookie tutorial while I have access to my mother's sewing machine.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. If you're stuck at work tomorrow, try to get through it by gorging on Cadbury mini eggs. And if you're in the Maritimes, try not to get buried under too much snow.

1. This weird inbetweeny spring weather is the WORST and makes it hard to put together blogworthy outfits.
2. My ankles are freezing today
3. I also haven't worn outfits worth documenting lately because I really need to do laundy. So bad. Behind that door is an EXPLOSION of clothing, it's awful.
4. I feel like I'm bombarded with articles and quips about COLOURED DENIM and all about how COLOURED DENIM is in style and you should really go out and buy COLOURED DENIM and as nice as COLOURED DENIM is I'm kinda sick of hearing about it. I got this COLOURED DENIM last year on clearance for like $10 bucks at Joe Fresh and that should satisfy my need for COLOURED DENIM for the rest of my life.
5. I got my couch! Isn't it great? There's a sticker under the cushions that dates it back to 1968. SIXTY DOLLARS!!! Here it is again, I'm smitten
