I can't believe it's May, you guys! This year has been so crazy, and I can't believe it's not even half way through...cray cray.
The good thing is that things are starting to bloom, and even though these photos are just in our backyard, it's great to finally see spring has really sprung:)
I think this sweater is from my mum (worn with Calvin Klein pants and Vans slip ons).
close up of the sweater..I really like it:)
I've been styling her hair during the quarantine...hahaha!
PS In case you have some time, I did an art studio tour on my YouTube channel:)
How are things where you are? Are things still on lockdown for you?
Such a cute knit from your mum and it's nice to see your daughter joining in the pics too! :) More restrictions were removed here in Queensland and it's going to be so interesting to see what happens tomorrow as they are anticipating even more will be! I think my kids will like being back to school and being back in their routine next week :)
Just spending a bit of time in your backyard must be so nice! That way you can really enjoy and embrace the season. These pictures are really cute as well. You both just look so happy. Also, that sweater is fabulous. What a great piece! the creation of beauty is art.
OMG did Mini Me have a growth spurt? She's almost as tall you :) Yes the warmer weather is definitely welcome even if we can't really go anywhere. Hey at least you guys have a backyard and it's good you're getting out for some fresh air and fun. Love what you did with her hair! I hope you're feeling much better now chingu <3 That's a fab sweater! We're still in lockdown though more things are opening up around our neighborhood and that's giving me life right now.
It's so lovely to see your little ones grow up, as long as I have been following you. I love that knit of your mum's. It's beautiful. I hope you have a great May weekend, Emmy. I cannot believe it's May! I'm off to finally relax, been working all hours of the night even quarantined. :) xo/Madison
Hubby, myself and the little one decided to go to Fairview Mall today while the boys were in school. What was happening there, you might ask? Why...the opening day of Express , of course. To be honest, I thought they had already opened. It was just perfect timing, I guess. This is their first store in Canada, and I'm really glad they picked Fairview coz it's very accessible where I live:P I've shopped in Express before, specifically the one in Buffalo (New York) and I really like their stuff. They always have a great collection season after season, and the prices are mostly reasonable. Here are some pics I took with the phone. Really love their sequined jackets! The layout is pretty good and the store size is quite substantial. The fall collection is TDF. I didn't take a pic of this killer red suit that they have, but trust me when I say it is very very nice. I would have gotten it, but it really would have just sat in my closet, and it was out of my budg...
I've been having a hard time getting motivated to post anything at all these days. I've deleted X on my phone, and am on Bluesky now, but even then, I don't really post much there. (I've stopped posting on Instagram and Facebook years ago, and don't have a TikTok/) Even having a hard time posting consistently on my Art YouTube channel. I do have a small Catholic YouTube channel, and another small "fish" channel (and I use that term lightly coz I mostly post random stuff about our shubunkin goldfishes), but even then, these days, I just want to go "off the grid" :( That is all.
I mentioned in this post how I've been trying to revamp my wardrobe because of how much I loved Song Hye Kyo's clothes in the show The Glory (thank you to my blogger friend Rowena again for recommending this show!) Slowly....slowly....I am trying. I will probably never get rid completely of all my colourful and worn clothes, but it's really been a game changer changing my style. Here's the new addition to my closet, inspired by SHK. I've been looking for a black coat for awhile and finally found it! Zara oversized coat LOLZ....excuse the RBF. This was me trying it in the store before buying. Was really debating as I'm trying not to spend so much, but this coat was reasonably priced, and it the last of my size! What's a girl to do? Who has been your style inspo lately?
