Visiting Quebec City

Outfit Details:
Top & Boots & Tights: TJmaxx
Schooltime Sparkle Skirt: Modcoth
Necklace: Lace Affair

I went to Quebec this past March, cross that adventure off my bucket list, and (tried) to brush up on my French. I stayed in a cute little hotel near the center of town (Auberge Place D'armes) and loved it. The city was still packed with snow and ice - and ever as beautiful. I inhaled espresso and poutine every meal time and found poutine flavored potato chips to take back home. Old Quebec definitely became one of my favorites places. 

The photos are mostly from my phone, because while I remembered my camera, I forgot my tripod. It was a balancing act on top of clothes and books and tables to get the right angle- in the end they came out well. My camera is a little worse for wear nowadays and I might have to look into switching permanently to my phone for these types of pictures. 

But, of course, the true point of the story is that if you ever get the chance to visit Quebec City, do it. Even if it's winter, cause it's just as gorgeous.
.Misha.

Bridges, Of Course


Outfit Details:
Coat & Shirt: Kohl's
Craft Party Dress: Modcloth
Boots: DSW
Necklace: Hottopic
Peter Pan Scarf: Amazon

Bridges make for great photo taking. I would always drive by this bridge on my way to the big city. And if we've learned nothing else, we know that I'm always on the look out for a great outfit backdrop. 

The outfit itself, I'm rather proud of because all of these (say for the boots, but they don't count) have been in my closet for years. I love finding an old piece and a new way to wear it.  
.Misha.

P.S. the scarf is also new. I completely forgot it was in the photos.

How Not to Stay Still

Outfit Details:
Coat: Kohl's
Science Fair Flair Dress & From the Same Cloth Boots: Modcloth
Tights: Target
Scarf: TJmaxx
Necklace: Lace Affair

My, oh my, how the days have changed us. These photos are from December if that says anything. I disappeared for a while, which was the blame of a crashed computer and real life changes. My computer is running again and my life is continuing to change. Neither am I against.

These photos are from a cold winter's eve when the sky enticed me to come out for a while. The dress became a staple in my collection, especially since my work changed from uniforms to business casual. The boots are my favorite booties, only in a different color. The original color choice can be seen here and here.

I'll try to keep you guys up to date on my life changes. Currently, I've made the transfer from Maine to Ohio, temporarily. Later I'll be getting in a plane and going to Europe for a while. I doubt that surprises anyone. I've said it before I'm not good at staying still.
