cat's meow

weeeee love me some flouncy skirts sometimes!

kloset love

i've been on the go a lot lately. had many visitors staying with me at the lovely house in malta, made a quick pit stop to visit my family and friends in portugal, and finally settled into life back in nova scotia, canada. for those of you wondering, i'll be residing here now for the next few months before i hopefully move back to portugal. but now that i am settled in, expect frequent updates. at least every wednesday!

now to the good stuff. i know my closet would be very satisfied with a dress like this with its tasty sorbet colours, and interesting cuts and fabrics, however, my wallet would not. :(  some shorts and earrings by the same designer, kloset.

alt-j. a-mazing song. a-mazing video.

to the wedding

the late summer season has put me amidst a whirr of wedding frenzy. congratulations to my lovely friend jo and her new husband abner, and to jen & rory as well. coincidentally i happened to find myself reading a book titled To the Wedding by john berger.

a story told by a blind man, who with his enhanced hearing, can perceive moments and feelings happening all over the world. a web of human stories of happiness, lust, sadness, anger, wonder, shock, self-realization and of course, love.  an easy, quick, and beautiful read: a perfect kind of book. 

mia

havn't been keeping up to date with MIA but so glad i came across this video. MIA.. i have always wanted to marry you, but now, it is for sure. she is one of the most strong, powerful, gorgeous and influential women who is actually DOING SOMETHING with their fame. she also has damn good style and flow to boot. the video is also incredible [as usual] and was made for female empowerment in the woman to drive movement. the video is beautiful, ironic and quite powerful.

care bears on fire

although i didn't care for them much before [[although i am an avid believer in all girl punk bands]] i really love carebears on fire ' s cover of  'every body wants to rule the world' by 80s new wave band tears for fears.  unfortunately i may be one of the only souls out there who enjoys the cover...oh well girls, keep rockin'.

another travellin' song

 a few weeks ago, a few-week journey, to a few eastern-euro countries with a few photo results.

budapest>>bucharest>>istanbul>>

the company was grand; yann, and everyone we met along the way: on the trains, in the hostels, 

at the restaurants and of course, in their homes. 

which they so humbly and wonderfully welcomed us into. 

[[couchsurfing is incredible]] 

 these are the only pictures of us together, taken by a man who came and stole my camera to take a picture, then gave it back >>^^

 what my brain looked like during the trip ^ ^ [[and always probably]]

music. always. >>

positions along the way  ^^ vv

 << a symbolic happy, cold, tired, laughing, irritable, amenable yann

a bag full of 

           goodies for family, friends, myself, to remind me of my wonderful time vv
