Whoops!

I apologize for not posting up my tight review.  It ended up being a bit more cold that originally predicted and I cheated and wore tall boots with my tights. 

That being said I wasn't cold and I think the fact that they were cable knit helped.  I'm not sure how they would perform in -20 weather but I'm sure I'll be finding out soon.  

I'm still looking out for the perfect pair of plus size winter tights.  I know they have to be out there, somewhere 

Photos soon

Winter Tights Review Sneak Peak

Tomorrow is supposed to be a very cold day in Edmonton, a high of -3 with a child chill of -6. So I'll get a chance to get a good review of these Cable Knit tights I got from One Stop Shop

Sorry for the crappy picture but you can view the tights here


I have a pair in black and in charcoal.   I also ordered up a size based on reviews. I briefly wore a pair yesterday and I'm glad to say that I'm happy I did order up.   Shipping was fast though not cheap so next time I'll probably try and get a group order together. I did have tracking and the shipping and duties/handling were charged up front so no surprises. 

Review and Photos tomorrow!

Game On!

Once again, I'm trying to eliminate as much meat as possible from my diet.  On the "Stay" list so far is

Fish
dairy products and cheese (haven't found a vegan cheese that I can live with yet)
Bacon (again haven't found a good substitute)
Chicken Broth (though i think there are some good vegan subs, I need to look into them better)

Game on and hopefully this time it sticks. i have these vegan books on my e-reader

While I'm not going vegan, at least this will give me some recipe ideas

Cozy and Cute

Now that its colder, I'm finished with my course and back out looking for work I've found some really nice clothes that I either hunted down and bought or are on my wish list:)


Take a look:

I bought the sweater and tank from Reitmans..LOVE

Ribbed Wool Over the knee socks from Sock Dream 

THIS is the outfit that makes me reconsider wearing animal prints

Pumps from Lane Bryant for work

Lane Bryant

Lane Bryant is shipping to Canada again!!!!   While they aren't the same quality as maybe 10 years ago, they still have some pretty nice base pieces and wide calf boots!!

check it out @ www.lanebryant.com

P.S. It looks like Fashion Bug, Catherines, Loop 18 and Cacique and are also shipping to Canada.  All these stores used to be owned by Charming Shops and I'm not sure if they still are. 

I'm back!!

Hello Readers!!

I just wanted to let you all know that I'm back in the blogging frame of mind so beware of a lot of posts in the upcoming months.

I've been pretty busy the last six weeks. I've been in a training course to brush up on office skills and to get my self-esteem back up and I'm geared up to land my "dream" job hopefully.

No recent photos though as I'm in desperate need of a haircut and colour and I've also gained some weight this summer from not doing anything but I'll have some photos up soon, I promise:)


I hope everyone had a great summer and are busily getting geared up for Winter.


Must Love & Happy Life!
