Technically it’s Wednesday but my weekend starts now.
Yay for Canada Day and extra long weekends!

I went to the mall during my lunch hour to pick up my Canada Day tee.
I haven’t been to the mall in a really long time; it was comforting to find nothing had changed.
It’s still as crowded and busy as the last time,
I don’t have anything planned for the long weekend, in hindsight, I should have planned a getaway but…  I kinda like being around for Canada Day because there’s always so much to do in the city.
I think I’m going to head down to the States on Friday for some retail therapy.

For the rest of my long weekend I think I’m just going to wing it, let spontaneity take control.
I’ve also decided I’m going to read one good book each month this summer, for July I’ll be reading Michael Ondaatje’s Divisadero.
These pictures were taken weeks ago in the lovely town of Lynden, WA (with its pretty farms and cemetery) after a very long day of running around down south.

Outfit Details: Jeans Skirt – The Gap, White Blouse – Mexx, Vest – Talula, Booties – Gino Ventori

I’ve had this jeans skirt for over a decade and never worn it, it’s a wonder I held on to it for as long as I did.
I guess I always assumed I was saving if for a special day,  that I’d wear it one day and it’ll be spectacular, except I held on to that thought for a decade.
And then one day, I decided to just wear it, and I did… and it was just another skirt.
It has a weird cut,  but it’s still just another skirt.
Maybe the skirt is a metaphor for those things in life we hold off doing, for whatever reason.
Sometimes it doesn’t feel the same after you’ve held off for too long.
