in anticipation of fall jacket



just when i thought i knew what to wear, something happens. the weather changes dramatically. or, i start feeling uncomfortable in my own skin. and i no longer know what to wear.

i am wearing the neck tie dress, the folio jacket and the amazing skirt by kaliyana. my boots are the pluto boot (closed collection) by trippen.

where has the summer gone scarf



many around me have remarked on the chill in the air: it feels like the start of fall, but it is too far away from the start of fall (okay, maybe not so far away, but it should be far away) for the feeling to be right. i agree. and fall is my favourite season!

i am wearing the tahiti top, the biarritz top, the odyssey pant, the focus jacket and the delphi scarf by kaliyana. i am wearing the cylinder boot (box collection) by trippen.

traveller's jacket


on a typical summer's eve, the sidewalks are full of persons walking with purpose towards destinations and persons leisurely walking for the sake of leisurely walking. on a less typical summer's eve, one more typical of fall -- grey, chilly, blustery -- a lone person walking home from work feels very much alone, a solitary soul in an otherwise populous city. why does the cold discourage so many people from venturing outdoors?

forever editing dress/tunic


i am starting to think that there is a finite number of clothes (and a finite number of styles) that the human brain can successfully navigate. more than that number and chaos ensues. it is probably contrary to the very essence of some individuals' being to say this, but i will risk censure and say it. one day, when i have more time on my hands (and nothing useful to do with it), i will conduct some scientific (or, more likely, unscientific) research to validate this theory of mine.
