Sundays at the beach.

Cupid, draw back your bow.

It’s a Sam Cooke kind of day.

And a pointy-toed shoe kind of day (which is really rare for me - I don’t usually think I can pull them off, but these Tahari’s are an exception to the rule).

I’m on a roll!

The days are getting shorter… time to stock up on vitamin D and light therapy lamps.

The creature that lives here.

Now a whopping 9 months old. See him here @ 9 weeks old. Oh how he’s grown… but still cute as a button!

Wall movements.

Summer is almost over.

And I’m glad.

Actually, I’ve gotten more sun this summer than any other in Pretty Cupcake history (and beyond), but I’m ready for that autumn weather. Autumn is my favourite season and I’ll be forever thankful for the chance to break out the leather jackets and boots.

Oh and pants. I miss pants.

Also, I have a pair of Kenneth Cole black suede wedges with leopard accents that are screeeeaming for opaque tights and a wool skirt. Screamingggggg.

I’ve been playing around with my camera a little more. I still don’t know what I’m doing, and I am sure that I annoy the fiancé a great deal with my repetitive questions. One day, fiancé, one day I’ll know what the hell you’re talking about. And I will no longer accuse you of making stuff up :)

A new family member!

It’s been a while…. holidays have come and gone. A new year has started. A puppy has found a new home.

Meet Bailey! Our newest family member. He is a 9 week old Morkie (Maltese & Yorkshire Terrier) and he weighs about 4lbs. He’s the sweetest little pup I have ever laid my eyes on - and he’s so smart! I was never much of an animal person, but he has certainly converted me into a dog lover.

I feel like Maison Martin Margiela should have a doggie line…. no?

Also, I heart Cesar Millan. Dreamboat.

Shopping my closet.

I have been searching for rectangular-like tortoiseshell coloured pair of sunglasses for quite sometime. I have large cheeks so finding a good pair of sunnies is usually a project of its own. I was thinking about investing the time and effort to find Wunderkind cat-eye sunglasses (much like Olivia Palermo’s) but instead, I found a pair of old Miu Miu sunnies that I bought at least 6 years ago (or more?) in my accessories drawer.

I love them all over again.

(excuse my stupid pose, I’m pretty awkward in front of a camera)

Also, I’m wearing a new lipstick! MAC’s new Pro Longwear lipcreme in Unlimited. I’ve had a cup of tea and a glass of water, and it’s still on my lips. Two thumbs up!

Cyclops

He’s got his eye on you.

Billingham!

I’m glad there’s an option out there for a really pretty camera bag that doesn’t scream total tourist. Billingham is my new bestie!
