Scorcher

Half of the planet is going through extreme hot weather right now. Here in Toronto, we are averaging about 40℃/104℉ humidex...quite normal down south but for us in Canada, that's hot, you guys! I'm not complaining though as I have said before, our winters are sooooo long.

 It is scary though what is happening to our planet right now, you know? Anyone who says we don't have a climate change caused by environmental damage is a fool.

Anyhoo, right now, all I can really manage to wear aside from shorts and shirts are these dresses I sewed.
old dress I sewed using the Merchant and Mills Bantam pattern (I made three of these:D), J Crew ballet flats



I hope you are all doing well and managing to stay cool (or warm depending on where you are):)

Such a lovely dress - you look great in red! 40 degrees sounds more like our summer, I would not expect that for Canada at all! It's a cold snap again here but we have had a weird winter with it getting almost summer like then right back to cold again!

Hope that your week is off to a good start despite the heat :)

I think we're experiencing the same heatwave chingu! Anyone who denies the existence of climate change is a fool and a #%^&*>! You've got the right idea with that breezy dress and that shade of red looks awesome on you! I've actually been downing hot beverages to cool down. It really works!

104? That's insane. It's averaging maybe 90-95 here in Atlanta. Also hot, but not crazy hot. And yes, climate change is a problem -- everyone should believe that. Your dress is the perfect look for a 104 degree day.

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Some analogue love #2

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
