little tots and swimming holes

skirt: thrifted
shoes: shoepper
vest: thrifted, chez thrift
hair band: clothing swap
earrings: Hattitude jewellery 

I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend! How great was that heat yesterday?
I spent it hunting at used furniture stores for my apartment in london...I mainly ended up with vintage pieces for my jewellery. Wait till you see the stuff I dream up this week in my shop. 

 We watched Super 8 the movie. Have you seen it? Any vintage lovers of the 70's era and the LOST series need to see this movie. It's really quite charming.

We played baseball with a gang of us on Sunday and then went swimming with my man friend's nephews (3, 4 and 10 years). The little tots are the best to play in the pool with, minus the ear clogged from a water gun spray. They're at the age where you have to teach them not to run around the deck, not to pee in the pool (this one is key) and not to take off their water wings, for fear they'll sink to the bottom of the pool. They make swimming a little more exciting :) 

Enjoy this heat wave we've been having! Summer is finally here!

1,2,3....strikes your out, at the ol' ball game!

At the national washington baseball game 
waiting to buy tickets. popular
go nats go
wouldn't you rather be at a baseball game in the sun, and grass on a Sunday....
my cousin (my adopted big sis) showin' me the ropes of DC
the beautiful green field and blue sky...mother nature get to Toronto already...
 It's April 23rd, and finally just today we are starting to get some warm weather in Toronto, (the photos above were taken from my DC trip last week) with a fair degree of 21, maybe, just maybe mother nature has decided to give us Torontonians a Spring after all...but with the weather we've been having, (snow last weekend) it's still not safe to say.

Dancing is on the agenda tonight. Salsa? Tango?...or the good ol' fashion waltz? Oy. I wish! I have no clue how to do any of those, and any attempts at salsa dancing in the past have lead to a not so graceful leave from the dance floor.

A purple highwaisted flowy skirt is on the fore front for today? Oui.

I'd much rather be back in DC at the baseball game outside with the sun shining on my face picking wild flowers along the sidewalk...I heard it's 27 degrees down there...seriously? blargh. I'm beginning to forget what summer and heat is like! Today is such a weather tease!
