_ Lace dress from Topshop
_ Leather jacket from New Look (I know you're sick of it)

_ Red belt from Primark
_ Vintage scarf

_ Black tights from H&M

_ Flat boots from Spring

_ Black men's laptop bag from H&M (not shown, as always)

I wore this out to pass out some more resumés.
(If it hasn't become clear yet, I'm unemployed)
It was super rainy yesterday morning, and by the time I got home, my hair made me look five shades of crazy, thus the covered face.
I got up early and transit-ed downtown, but nothing opened before eleven, so I had a nonfat caramel machiatto in Starbucks with a multitude of middle aged tourists, some who were incredibly rude to the baristas.
I don't go to your country and be mean to people, seriously.
Anyway, a homeless man thought my outfit was "lovely".

I changed when I got home so I could hang out with Elsie, my dog. A white lace dress is really not the best attire for playing with a 120 pound dog, even with one as sweet as Elsie.

_ Gray oversize graphic t shirt from Primark
_ Cutoff jean shorts from American Eagle (I cut them myself, thus the uneven-ness)
_ Black tights form H&M
_ Black cardigan from H&M

Elsie makes a cameo in this photo; I promised to walk her yesterday down to the library, but the rain was relentless.
It was all for the better though, because today I took her on a two hour and twenty minute walk with a friend of mine and her dog. She convinced me to go running with her and a bunch of our friends, oh god. We'll see how that pans out; I work out, but on my family's elliptical in the basement. Running on the road's a little different.

Question Of The Day;
Who's your style icon from a movie? Like, the character with the best style. I've been thinking about this lately, and I don't know who mine is; I recently watched 'Happy-Go-Lucky' which was OK, a bit boring, but Poppy, the main character had a crazy sense of style and wore heels with everything. I also love Shilo Wallace from 'Repo! The Genetic Opera'; everything she wore was very Victorian inspired. And of course there's Marilyn and Audrey.

Love.

Twitter Fail.

Just so you know, my Twitter is

The Twitter gadget thing on my page keeps showing another girls Tweets, I have no idea why. Hopefully I can get it fixed soon.

Love.

OOTD; God Heard My Weather-Related Prayers

_ Dress from Zara (The one I bought yesterday)
_ Leather jacket from New Look (Turns out the store I bought this jacket from is actually called New Look, not New. Fail on my part.)

_ Black flats from Aldo (The same ones from yesterday)

Today was cloudy, finally.
I went out to the mall to buy flat boots; I bought a pair of studded black ankle boots, and brown cowboy boots from, both from Spring.

Sorry for the kind of crap picture, but I'm not feeling the best today; I have a slew of things wrong with me (I'm going to the doctor tomorrow) and I had an anxiety attack on the skytrain coming home. I wrote in my Moleskin to calm myself down while on the seabus, but I was still shaky on the bus.

I am a hugely cynical person, and optimism isn't something that comes naturally to me.
But I do my best.

On the plus side, I wrote my first song in over a year on the seabus today.
It needs a bit of retouching, but it's finished for the most part.
I forgot how much I love writing poetry, and how much better it makes me feel.

Love.

P.S. I did my eyeliner perfectly today.

Question Of The Day;

Say one thing you're thankful for, or one thing that went your way. Not really a question, but I'd like to know.
