FREESHIPPING sale


These photos are from a few days ago. It's been raining non-stop here for the last few days. Great for the gardens, not so good for working on jewellery, photographing and blogging. 
Today consists of finishing The Shadow of the Wind, which is a fabulous mystery novel, and seeing the last Batman movie. Perfect for a rainy day eh?
skirt: thrifted, salvation army, Guelph
Shirt: Yours Now Mine clothing store, Bolton
Necklace: Available here in my jewellery shop

We have not seen the kittens since it started raining all day, every day, a few days ago. We have 5 now! 5 little kittens that frolic and play and run through the garden. If anyone wants a new kitten, they are mighty cute! Although we did find Nolan a home. He so desperately wants to be a house cat! I'm so glad we found him a lovely place to stay. 

How about because it's raining...and because it's the weekend...and because we have new kittens...a
sale in my jewellery shop? 
FREESHIPPING when you use the discount code until Sunday evening! 
Have a wonderful weekend, and Happy shopping!

infamous sock monster

I'm down in Toronto today for some routine clinic appointments, so here is some photos of a lovely outfit my cousin was stylin' that I LOVED. Isn't this shirt so cute with the high waisted mama shorts? That belt is awesome too. Couldn't you just swoon over that mustard coloured bag? 
Me and my mustard...we got a real love connection going on!

I have no idea where she got any of her pieces, except the necklace...it's a Hattitude...ha
 You can find a necklace similiar by clicking here. and here. and here...oh yeah and here

Isn't it funny how you buy a pack of bobby pins and within 6 months you're buying a WHOLE new pack... Do you know how many bobby pins come in that pack!? At LEAST 100. Where do all the bobby pins go? Must be related to the infamous laundry monster. Where do all the matching socks go?

nala...nolan? kitten world

shirt: clothing swap
belt: mothers
skirt: chez thrift, altered
necklace: available in my shop here

Blogging hiatus. I'm sorry. Alas the challenges of the great outdoors and summer time living, versus making jewellery and participating in the blogosphere, although I did miss you all dearly. 
Thanks for all the kind comments! They are too nice! 

I'm almost finished Shadow of the Wind. Could hardly put it down. All weekend at the cottage I had my nose in a book. The perks of being a wallflower the movie is coming out in August, so I would like to get that book read before I see the movie. Has anyone seen the movie? or Read the book?

In animal news...the stray kittens are back playing around our home. We thought they had disappeared but turns out they had just scrambled over to the neighbours farm. We found out she, Nala is not a Nala after all...but he is a Nolan. ha

Hope your long weekends were wonderful, for all you Canadians, for everyone else, Happy august!
p.s. how's the new blog design? The lovely Nicole from Living with Fletch was kind enough to design it for me! She's wonderful. We did everything via email. I had a million requests on things and she was able to do all of them! All star! What do you think of the new design?

Thanks for all the book recommendations! It's hard when our book club takes a summer vacation to find a good read! I'm off to do some shopping for our new apartment in London, Ontario today. Hopefully we'll be moving some things in this weekend. My Manfriend's mother was kind enough to outfit our whole kitchen! SCORE. 
Have a wonderful happy shopping Thursday.

How was everyone's weekend? I was recuperating from my girls getaway cottage weekend yesterday. It was slow in the Hattitude studio. Can you believe a cottage full of girls and we did not snap any photos! Hard to believe eh?

I started reading a superb book, Shadow of the wind, by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. Has anyone read it? I was in a reading slump for a good 4 or 5 months, actually putting down books after 50 pages and I NEVER do that. I just could not find a good one. Finally this one has peaked my interest. I've been known to be a book worm, so for me not to be voraciously reading a novel is quite unheard of. 
Do you have any recommendations? What's on your book shelf?

new jewellery in the store!



Check out all the jewels by clicking here.

It's raining today, so no outfit post. I'm not complaining though, up here in Ontario we've been having a major drought! My brother is a forest fire fighter and he's been working up a storm. It's been so dry, a ton of new fires keep popping up all over Ontario. 
Happy almost weekend and enjoy shopping!

$7600 was raised!


Acid washed jean jacket: vintage
hat: clothing swap
skirt: vintage (altered), chez thrift
Necklace: Available here in my shop

We've started taming the kittens. Little Rascal and Nala (Found out the black one is a girl) are coming up and munching away on the kitten food I bought them yesterday. Nala lets us hold her, but Rascal will have none of it, but he is getting used to our voices. 
My Dad says no more cats in the house (we already have two!)...mom keeps bringing Nala inside. Kitten: 1....Dad: 0

The Caledonstock fundraiser from the other weekend, raised over $7500! How crazy is that? That money will do some wonderful and amazing things for the Cystic Fibrosis community and the lung transplant programs. Thank you again to everyone who came. It means the world to every one of us who suffers from CF. 

It's half way through the week! ...
But I'm cheating and taking some holidays this week. Expect outfit posts of me up at the cottage. Baby brother is back from fighting fires (yes fellow bloggerittes gasp and awe and oggle...he's a 6'3 forest fire fighter...blonde and jacked? and single...all a big sis wants is a nice girl for him ha) and we're rendezvousing at the cottage. What are your plans for the week? Have you ever tried to sell your brother on the internet as a date? ha!
