I pretend to be daring when it comes to my hair, but last summer I got blunt bangs and cried because I thought they were "too short". I'm a sissy, I know! This summer I wanted some blond highlights. I've had them before... I got them in November before I went to Australia so I didn't look like I came out of the Northern-ly Canadaland (I still did.. my pale skin and all!) but it was a nice look for the beach! Unfortunately for me, my bank account doesn't enable me to spend $70-$90 on highlights at the salon, so I decided to get the home kit (which was on sale for $4 at the drug store). I suspect I should have been scared about the price, but oh well! So last night I got my friend Che to do it and it looks great! Subtle and what I wanted!
Next step: Hair cut... what do I get done?

Opps.. I didn't do it
It's a well known fact that I despise my laptop. It's stupid, and if I wasn't afraid of being without the Internet, it would have been on the cement a long time ago!
Yesterday, it broke. Well one of the buttons broke, but I am considering it dead! That means time for a newwww one! My much loved MACBOOK is closer that I thought. YAY! Must start saving for that...
wish me luck!

Your Summer Jam -- Kanye West Edition
With all this updating, writing and editing, I needed a sweet, upbeat song to put on repeat!!(Yes, I do that)
If you haven't heard it, take a listen!
Do you have a song for the summer of 2008?

In My Life...
This is one of my favourite songs...
What do you think? Do you have the same affinity of the Beatles as I do?

The Shirt Dress
Tonight I am attending a "business casual" Journal Club at a local restaurant for work. I haven't had the opportunity to attend one of these yet, but it involves a delicious dinner and talks (and I could use some more information about the renal function!) I am using this as an opportunity to debut my shirt dress! It's super a super cute browny-green with a gorgeous belt I picked up on major sale last year at Club Monaco!
Eeek, more on how that goes. I have to be there in 30 mins!
Yours in a delicious (free) dinner,
S.
* note, the image is sorta, kinda, but not really like the dress I wore. But it IS a shirt dress and until I get one of mine.. it's going to have to stay :)

Who knew shoes could be so difficult!
I spent Sunday on the search for the perfect pair of shoes that would go with everything I own. Glorious beige-y tan heels (similar to the ones above) that I could wear with all colours or neutrals without taking attention away from the outfit. You know what I found? One (ONE!) pair of GORGEOUS heels that were like 3 inches high. Everything I was looking for in a shoes, except for the fact they made me super tall, and I'm not sure I could spend over 8 hours a day standing in them without toppling over. Other than those, I found nothing. Not a single other pair that I liked. I would usually say, "can you believe that?" but in this case. I can! I am sooo picky about shoes... but I can't help it!
Now here's my question for you: have you found my work approporiate (closed toe) beige heels??
* For anyone who has $700+ just laying around and wants to buy me a gift.. may I suggest these:
