Mirror Mirror on the Wall...

Who hosts the best party of them all?

Hands down, its goin' steady. A dance party that rolls around once a month at The Boat in Toronto. The music makes me freak out its so good, cant even handle it - the dj's spin nothing but beat tunes from the 40's 50's and 60's, and its a fucking dance dream come true. Can't quite explain why I love it so much...possibly fueled by my early life obsession with the movie Dirty Dancing. My mom popped the video into the VHS when I was six and I've been hooked ever since. ('Cause nobody puts baby in a corner...bi-yatch.)

The last time I went was June 6th and Sarah took some cute pictures.



Its pure joy in that face right there.

The next one is August 1st - that this weekend. Ill be in Pitsburg on a family vacation, so I need you to go so i can live vicariously through you. But if that can't happen, I'll just watch this video over and over and hopefully that will be enough until next time (which will probably be in Montreal, cause did I mention, they've been hosting them over there too!) (Watch the video i liked - the DJ's have played 'Love Man' on many occasions, and I'm not gonna lie, I've used some of Johnny's dance moves. The arm pop thing is a crowd pleaser...)

Distracted

I've been trying to write my paper all day. But I've hardly made a dent. Mostly I stayed in bed, drank tea, played with my kitten, who likes to hold my hand, and nuzzle his adorable little nose into my arm pit, and read a play. Also i checked twitter/facebook/hotmail about twenty thousand times.



(But i like to take after the shirt I'm wearing which reads "No problem!" amidst palm trees and sail boats...) Still, I know imma be screwed tomorrow!

she sells sea shells by the sea shore

In my last outfit post, christina requested a close up photo of my gold studded shoes...


Here are some larger photos of the purse and belt I wore in the last outfit post as well


Bet you didn't see that the belt is actually a collection of gold sea shells!


This is my beloved vintage chanel purse...found at Buy the Pound for less than a quarter!

I'm really loving gold accessories and details, especially when they are set again something black. Also, I really love Flickr - Christina suggested I set up an account to solve my photo sizing problems...What a great website, its so much easier than Photobucket! k bye!
