trend alert_(sometimes, i surprise myself)


glad to see this girl at the language into art opening. all up in der NSCAD snakey stair wells and crooked hallways. lots of peeps, tangerines, words being thrown around, images, symbols. you know. this is Sarah. come to think of it, i know she is friends with friends, but beyond that, much more remains to be discovered.

lovin the long pretty skirts and big utilitarian boot combo on da babes.














found myself in (most of) this outfit thanks to rachel collyer leaving the city of halifax. she left behind the ochre cardigan and emerald dress with big pockets and made from mysterious material. ultramarine tights from own collection. mocassins were Amy's. crocheted beret was Omi's. (ps: thats the NSCAD jewelry studio you see there. taking a break from enameling all nighter)

know what i mean, jelly bean ?




















(that's yours truly up there at Halifax Crafters. located at nice new spacious space, good vibes as always)

it is now 2:01 am.
aforementioned cousin friend Jasmyn and family member Terez, Mama and Papa have been up watching home videos. good idea.

blogging has been left for the darkest coldest hours of the night and house.

i will be waking up for breakfast at 9 at friend Amanda's house. after which we shall be taking off to Buffalo ny to buy wedding dresses. one for me, one for you. (just kidding). perhaps some of our dresses will make it on here. perhaps that is irony. or just lack of foresight. who knows.

right. back on track.

i spotted this lady's steez from a hallway away (not a mile, but close) ... these pink tights and other pink things recently happenchancing make me dig pink all over again. welcome back old friend.

in the background we've got Valery's collages. does she have a website? let's see ....

cherry on top

to my friend, Shenanigans Leal: so yes the maraschino sort is mildly disgusting.
but it turns out, the founder of wikipedia (currently wants you to give him some money) is a babe. jimmy wales. ok.

never mind.


halifax crafters. Regina is the lovely lady with curly locks and vintage eye glasses she ordered on a whim from the world wide web for something like 20$. how well suited they are to her face. she looks like a magical story book character; the kind that comes just at the right moment and with a soothing cup of nettle tea. a few weeks later, she was witness to a bottle of cassis liquer breaking by either ghost or shearling padded elbow (my own) at the market. i looked up and there she was with an understanding smile.

new post

oh how i would love to get the kinks worked out on the layouts of these blog things to achieve optimum aesthetic quality . bear with me ; blue skies up ahead .
