Learn and Burn- The Sheepdogs

September is finally here, which for me means whipping on my nerd glasses and catching the bus to school. Whoa, am I ten years ago?

Then again, my back to school shopping list this year is a whole bunch more stylish than my list circa 2001 (think huge flared jeans, baby tees and a perma-ponytail... yeaaah.) But it's also about a mile longer, and I'm going to have to brush up on my thrift skills to do any damage at all to it. 

These items are at the top of the list, all perfectly slouchy and chic with a little bit of fun to keep it interesting! 

The bright skinnies, grandpa loafers, silk blouses and touches of gold and leopard are completely transitional for any season, and the Moleskine notebooks are necessary for any hard working collegiate. 

Le sigh! Fall is here and I couldn't be happier!

A week in Photos

I really need to find a good spot (and some sunlight!) for outfit photos! I just can't bring myself to post another set of boring beige walls. The scenery around here is gorgeous, but I leave for work when its dark and come home just in time for the sunset. Hmph. I might have to get creative with the coffee breaks and my trusty old tripod (Here's a free work tip guys: When it's your first week at a new job daily self-portraits are a great way to win friends and influence colleagues!!)**

In the meantime I thought I'd share five snaps from my week. 

-an unforgettable book and tea

- my first (almost missed!) shot of the Welcome to BC sign. This involved some reckless stunt driving that I do not condone! 

-the beginning of a quick dance sketch

- rocks at the creek beside my new apartment (gawd...IT'S FEBRUARY!!! I heart BC) 

- my adorable little Binx, who I miss snuggling with and am already hatching plans to cat-nap

What have been your favourite things this week?
