Whew, It's been a busy couple of weeks. September and October were wild, so I didn't have much time to write in my blog. But here I am! I scribbled down some ideas for things I'd like to write about before the year is out. Gotta make up for lost time!
First things first - I moved into a gorgeous downtown apartment just a few days ago and the indoor lighting is so much better here. The windows are huge so they let in a ton of light. I can finally take indoor coord photos, even in winter! There's also a pretty park nearby where I can take outdoor coord photos. I can walk to just about everything I need and it's close to transit, so I can continue to get away with not buying a car. The views are lovely. The only real downside is that while it's a beautiful and upscale area...it's a beautiful and upscale area. Everything just costs more here for no good reason, so I've been going out a lot less.
On the upside, I've gotten a bit better at cooking, and I've finally taken the opportunity to catch up on a few TV shows Ω©(｡•́‿•̀｡)ΫΆ My boyfriend is English, so he has introduced me to a whole world of TV shows that I had never heard of. While my mother raised me on British comedy shows (she spent most of her formative years living in London) our knowledge of British pop culture is circa 1980s at best, haha! My best friend also bought me two of the Vampire: The Masquerade visual novel games, Coteries of New York and Shadows of New York. It's been fun working my way through a more relaxed type of video game.

I just received this dress in the mail, and I can definitely see it becoming one of my favourites for more casual wear. It's super comfortable and keeps a nice shape even without a petticoat. I just didn't feel like wearing one - a recent chronic illness flare has been doing a number on my stomach - but I think it looks fine without. I wore this coord to walk down to a Halloween market that ended up being a lot smaller than expected and followed it up with an unfruitful (heh) attempt at plant shopping. Turns out that not many places sell houseplants in October - and all the plant stores were closed. Sigh. I just went to get my nails done instead. Got them cut uber short!
So aside from that...not a lot going on, I guess? I've gone to a few meetups so I have a few more coord shots to share. And I finally bought one of those Moleskine sketchbooks everyone raves about. My goal is to fill it with drawings of lolitas by the end of next year! I will post those here too.
