748 notifications in my home feed of my lookbook.nu profile. I guess I haven't been checking lookbook regularly... #mybad. Speaking of hashtags, I've been trying to tweet more, at least once a day.  I feel like I should have a good grasp of twitter because I want a job in the communications industry and nowadays the two have become synonymous.
Long story short, if you'd like to see more regular post from me check out my twitter.

Have a beautiful day,
Kate

django

Okay so you have to listen to the Django Unchained theme music as you read this post, it's epic. The whole movie was epic. It had typical Quentin Tarantino gore, most of the time it was comical and theatrical, with only two scenes being absolutely cringe worthy. There was a lot of quick wit, most of it coming from Christoph Waltz playing the amiable Dr. King Schultz.



Have a beautiful day,

Sun Child

I'm super stoked at how well these photos turned out with the sun and everything. I love backlit things, whether it's a dog, cat, an inanimate object, basically it could be anything.
So I was perusing lookbook.nu yesterday and stumbled across the blog Pop Champange by Julie Lan and just about died laughing at her posts and musings. She also has a great fashion sense and is from Victoria, but lives in Ottawa. As much as I love following international bloggers, I'll always have a soft spot for my fellow Canadians.

Have a beautiful day,
Kate

All systems go

Aren't these oxfords amazing? I love the weaved gold leather and guess what? I got them at Vaule Village! They're in near perfect condition and they're exactly my size 9.5 AA (narrow). Crazy right? But it seems Vaule Village has invested more time into looking at shoes and clothes - noticing when things are probably worth a bit more then $10, because these bad boys were $26. I never thought I would spend $26 on shoes at the Village, but hey, sometimes quality calls.

Have a beautiful day,
Kate

The Breakwater II

This is what I was wearing underneath my coat the day I went to the breakwater. I really love the colour of this sweater, and this whole ensemble in general. I think the pictures turned out marvelous; I love having my mom along to take them and the last picture is of her!

Have a beautiful day,
Kate

The Breakwater

My mom and I ventured to the breakwater yesterday and these pictures are the result. It turned into a beautiful day, so we were able to get some excellent shots. I just love the wall in the first picture.
The Chelsea boots I'm wearing are Cole Haan and I got them at Ingledew's in Hillside mall. Basically the store was crawling with little old ladies because who else can afford $250 shoes? I guess I can too because I bought them, but I was sick and tired of buying $80 boots that would wear out in 6 months.
So I guess what I'm saying is spend the extra money to get some decent boots, because you'll probably wind up wearing them a lot.

Have a beautiful day,
Kate
