i won't tell anyone how your voice is my favourite sound

sweater: Nordstrom.....top: H&M.....skirt: Ross
mini-socks: Target.....shoes: Zappos

I've been having a fun time setting up my camera and tripod at this office building. This is the second time I used this location, and I'll be sad when this office building becomes occupied. The ghostly emptiness is quite charming.

in the silence of your room, in the darkness of your dreams

I really liked pairing this snug pullover with this patterned skirt. But what this outfit really needs are accessories. Even a watch would be an improvement.

drive to the kicked-in radio. the sunshine leaves me stoned.

This is how I looked on Oct. 9:



sweater: Papaya.....top: Nordstrom Rack.....jeans: Liz Claiborne, JC Penney
socks: Target.....sneakers: PacSun.....hairclip: Long's

I normally would wear this sweater and top combo with a skirt on a workday. Because I'm really lazy when it comes to my weekend outfits, I'm wearing this combo with jeans.

to satisfy the curiosity, you take a bite out of all the candies.

This is how I looked on Oct. 7:



sweater: Target.....dress: JC Penney
tights: JC Penney.....shoes: DSW

I actually made an effort to pick a sweater and a pair of tights that weren't black for this outfit. The magenta tights are actually brighter than they let on, and I can't believe this is the first time I've worn my fave purple sweater with this dress.

By the way, I still can't get over how I purchased this dress for a mere $15.00 on clearance last year. Nah, I just can't. Also, it's a size M, and, at the time, I so wasn't a size M. It was the only one left at the Southland JC Penney, so I bought it anyway. When I wore it to a cousin's wedding in January of this year, a sweater hid the half-zipped back.

no matter where you're going, you'll always be a stranger

This is how I looked on Oct. 6:


sweater: Nordstrom Rack.....dress: Ross
tights: JC Penney.....shoes: DSW

I picked this particular baggy sweater to wear with this dress because the sweater's sleeves were big enough to fit over the dress's puffy sleeves.

Someone at work said that she could picture me wearing this dress with flip-flops and hanging out at a beach. And I agreed with her. This dress is way more suitable for summer, but I was trying something different.

i'm just roaming for the moment.

I am such a fangirl for the San Jose Sharks!

from your red balloon, you were a super high tech jet fighter.

On the drive back to Boston from Montreal, we made a pit-stop in Maine to eat lobster.

This is how I looked on Sept. 18:


location: The Lobster Shack at Two Lights, Cape Elizabeth, ME

sweater: H&M.....tanktop: H&M.....jeans: Steve & Barry's
socks: Target.....Nike sneakers: Kohls

Where I am standing in the first photo is about twenty to thirty feet away from The Lobster Shack's picnic tables. The combination of the breathtaking views of the rocky Atlantic coast and the food make this restaurant a dining destination.

I first learnt of this place from the Portland, ME episode of Man V. Food. The sight of the beautiful lobster rolls was engrained in my memory, so I made it a point for us to check out The Lobster Shack on our New England road trip.

The lobster rolls!

Brian had two, and I had one. He wolfed his down while I slowly cherished mine. We each ate our lobster rolls with a side salad and a slice of strawberry-rhubarb pie. That was our favourite meal of the entire trip! Eating such fresh and delicious lobster in Maine is an experience we would gladly love to repeat over and over.

so much to believe in. we were lost in time.

This is how I looked on Sept. 15:

location: Centre Bell, home of les Canadiens de Montreal~!

The dress.

I love the contrast of the zipper against the floral print.
