Shadown Of A Thousand Years...

 

Tonight for Halloween, I won't be dressing up and trick ot treating. I'll be spending the night with my best friend watcing non-scary Halloween movies! There actually may not be anyone out trick or treating tonight, thanks to the lovely Sandy. It's been raining all day.

 

 

Here's a little preview of what I'll be wearing. You probably won't see the rest of the look until Friday, because I may not be able to take photos until then. I was lucky to be able to snap these few.

 

 

I'll be waering my new red jumper from Romwe that arrived a few days ago, and a pair of leopard leggings that I've had for almost a year, but have yet to wear!

The most exciting, and possible scary, part of my look is my nail polish! It proably won't last until Friday, so I'll show you now!

 



 

 

It's designed to look like ripped flesh, and it was actually very easy!

Life Is Not About Waiting For The Storm To Pass...

This is how I looked last night, to go to a move with a friend. We went to see Taken 2, because we really liked the first one. But honestly, the sequel was disappointing. I found all of the action sequences boring, and it seemed like it was all done before.
 

But on to what I wore. I ordered these velvet leggings last month, and I'm so in love! Velvet is one of my favourite fabrics (closely followed by chiffon), and, of course, I love the color!

 

 These past few days have been dark and rainy, due to the hurricane. But luckily for us in Nova Scotia, she turned her path, so it won't be as bad here as it could be. But unfortunately, others aren't so lucky. I do hope that it isn't too bad, and that everyone impacted is safe ♥

Remember, Remember, This Is Now...

 Hello, friends! I hope your weekend is going well. Mine is full of work, just like every other one!

But last weekend, Sunday was a very exciting day. Not so much for me, but for my wonderful sister. That was the day that she set off, all on her own, for the amazing city of London! Having my big sister in a city in a whole other country is very cool to me for some reason.. It makes me very excited for when I can take a trip of my own to some far off country!

I love this jumper so much. I received it as  Christmas gift last year, and I can count the number of time I've worn it on one hand. Which is a sad thing, becuase it's so beautiful!

You Must Do The Thing You Think You Cannot Do

All of the trees are rid of their leaves in the forest. It looks bare and cold now, instead of warm and full of life, like it was only a week ago. Strange how quickly things change, isn't it?

 

This is how I looked Friday night when I went to Acadia University to spend the night with my friend that goes to school there. We had a great time, and stayed up way later then we should have, watching Magic Mike..
And I have to say, I really love the cut out shoulders of this blouse!
 

 

Tomorrow I have a job interview for what could be the most perfect job that I could have in my town. It's at the Ardenes store in the mall, and I really hope I do well in the interview. I'm not very good under pressure, so it could go either way. Here's hoping I do well! 

 

Oh, I almost forgot! I gave my blog a little fall makeover. I haven't been happy with the way it's been looking lately, so I redecorated a bit. What do you think??

...And Sorry I Could Not Travel Both

Because it looks so different day by day, I decided to take the photos for this post in the forest too. And I probably will until the snow starts to fall; I just love the quiet peacefulness.

The wood was mostly colored yellow (besides the conifers behind me), and it instantly made me think of that Robert Frost poem...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Any way, this is how I looked last Thursday night, when I went to the movies with my friends. We went to see Pitch Perfect, then went for ice cream afterwards. And the movie was great, in case your were wondering.
