"Summer days will soon be over, soon the autumn starts..."
And sure your summers are never as scandalous as Baby's, you're no Penny on the dance floor & could never pull off Lisa's two piece, but everyone deserve a Kellermans style send off this time of year!
Happy Labour Day y'all!
Autumnally yours,
Us

Happy December Y'all!
Come Play with Us (& wear these Mary Janes)
Halloween weekend is upon us and it's freezing in Toronto. Yes, these two things are unrelated but it fits the tone of this spooky recreation of the Grady Twins, featuring Kiernan Shipka. We LOVE it and it may be the closest we actually come to celebrating All Hallow's Eve this year (let's be honest, no matter how remarkable it is, one's famous mime costume can only be worn so many times).
Also, we've decided to take advantage of the aforementioned weather restrictions and devote the day to online shopping. The money we saved by staying warm in bed, combined with our fixation of the above has scarily led us on a hunt for the Mui Mui shoes used in the shoot...is there a neighborhood where we could trick or treat for pumps?

Additionally, we also like these similarly fashioned Valentinos just incase anyone feels inclined to buy us an extravagant Halloween gift.
Happy Halloween y'all, now go get cray and light the black flame candle!

What We Are Looking Forward To in 2013
Well now that we've exhaustively listed our fav happenings of 2012, let us move upward and onward with the new year!
STYLE Going to finally capitalize on the peplum phenom, as well as strong black and white looks. |
BOOKS Lena Dunham's rumoured book. Expectations are Tina Fey and Chelsea Handler level literate comedy. |
TELEVISION New and reborn season of Arrested Development, and the very much anticipated sophomore season of HBO's Girls. We predict Amy Poehler and Tina Fey teaming up as Golden Globe hosts will prove to be a real hoot. |
MOVIES Oz the Great and Powerful and The Great Gatsby AGAIN. Baz Lurhmann, you are walking a fine line. Also, this year we will truly be open minded to anything that isn't a member of the super hero craze (ie. Superman, Iron Man, Thor), featured a tired action star or is related to the Hobbit -- though that seems in short supply |
MUSIC New up and coming artist Andy Allo is looking and sounding sharp! Of course can't wait for what the 2013 has to offer ft. Beyonce, Nicki Minaj and Azealia Banks. We also think Ben Howard is about the blow up (if he hasn't already???). |
MATERNITY Baby Kimye and the Royal Heir. Also the will she or won't she (gain/lose the weight again, that is) surrounding Jessica Simpson. |
BEYONCE Super Bowl half time show, Pepsi Ad, HBO documentary, new Destinys Child music, possible collaboration with JT and everything else imaginable. Can't. Be. Stopped. |
SHOPPING Target in Canada, hurrah! |
OBAMA INAUGURATION Only if Beyoncé is performing and Obama is being adorable with wifey and children. UPDATE: Beyonce has confirmed her performance, result! |
MUST HAVE APP Icon Pop Quiz, we've needed something new to occupy our time when travelling on public transit, waiting in insufferable lines and avoiding people. |
LIVING OUR BEST LIVES Getting in better shape and being more virtuous. |
Holiday Decorating: DIY Garland
It's always nice to decorate for the season and we could not be more excited for the holidays! But if you live in small apartments like us, holiday decorating can create clutter and where do you even store these decorations in the off-season? So we like garlands! Festive and bright and can be draped over and around anything and everything. Here are some cute and easy DIY's.
Clutches Just in Time for Party Season
All the non-shut-ins are smack dab in the middle of Party Season and we can't help ourselves from expanding our accessories collections. A new clutch is a quick and simple way to update a tried and true evening outfit.
6 Fictional Holiday Parties We Would Like to Attend
'Tis the season, the season of holiday parties that is; we ourselves attended a lovely little holiday shindig this past weekend. However, not all holiday invitations are welcome and our condolences go out to those of you attending awkward office holiday parties this coming week. If we knew how to make the forced conversation and awkward Secret Santa exchange more tolerable, we would surely advise. But all we have to offer is the following imaginative list of fictional soirees we would like to attend as guests of our favourite fictional friends.
Dillon Panthers Holiday Kegger
This is a fully fictitious, yet entirely plausible event. Sadly, as that pesky high school football season only runs from late August to October we never really had the pleasure of witnessing how the folks in Dillon, Texas celebrated the holiday season. Our hearts tell us they would have done it right and we know that the Friday after school let out for holiday break Riggins and the rest of the boys would be throwing together a party. We'd go of course, and much like Julie Taylor did at that anti-formal kegger, drink too much and make a pass at Tim. We would also joke around with Landry Clark, try desperately to befriend Tyra Collette and exchange friendly, yet meaningful gifts with Saracen. Near the end of the festivities, in a perfect world, Coach would catch wind of some misbehaving and come over to break it up, and through his disappointment he'd treat us with respect, inspiring us and wishing us a safe and happy holiday. And we're pretty sure Coach would let us stay at his house if need be.
Sterling Cooper Draper Price Holiday Party
We know what you are thinking here, yes someone got slightly injured that one time, but we are willing to move past it, if you are. This holiday bash is certain to be a gas, if not full-on debauchery. Here are some things to look forward to: the guaranteed open bar over flowing with gimlets and old fashioneds, sitting on Roger Sterling’s lap as he is dressed as Santa and partaking in a conga line enthusiastically led by Joan. Also, the next day rumour mill would be diabolical. Don't lie, you'd love to speculate around the water cooler as to who subtly slipped into Mr. Drapers office, who Peggy took home and why Pete was sulking in the corner, all the while hoping no one noticed the less than innocent kiss you and Roger shared under the mistletoe.
Christmas at Fangtasia
In our imagination, Pam working with some sort of alternative motives has forced Eric to host some sort of holiday inspired event at Fangtasia and we want to be on the guest list. Yes, there is the lingering threat of death and possibility of getting thrown into that crazy underground torture chamber, but it is already decorated with the appropriate Christmas colours! Also the prospect of Eric revisiting any sort of former Christmas spirit he may have had is well worth it, and if we meet him under some sort of sadistic mistletoe so be it. We are a very accepting duo, willing to mingle with the vamps and experience something new, if not during the holidays, then when?
Ludachristmas
Ludachristmas is the annual celebration thrown by the TGS writers, where Frank puts on a delightfully festive hat, Jenna sings show tunes, Tracey hopefully is allowed to drink and we assume Liz Lemon annually brings a platter of her night cheese. Sounds as amazing as Tracey Jordan is at everything. We’d show up hoping it would turn out to be a Kenneth Parcels rager circa Season 1. Grizz and Dot Com you better watch out.
Pawnee Parks Department Christmas Party
Yes, entertainment 720 may have gone under this year, but we in no way believe that this is stopping Tom Haverford from putting together an amazing holiday party, presumably at the Snakehole Lounge. Andy’s band will play Christmas-inspired metal, Jean-Ralphio will hit on you, you’ll share a drink with Donna, Leslie and Ann then later make a mockery of the whole thing with the one and only Ron Swanson. Also, you know that this group is partaking in some sort of white elephant gift exchange and Ms. Knope herself is sending you home with something insanely amazing.
Neptune High Winter Dance
We cannot imagine a better way to spend a holiday party than assisting Veronica Mars crack some sort of winter themed case. Actually we have been discussing this for quite some time now. We realize it isn't Veronica's style to attend such a mainstream event, but we imagine Logan asking her to be his date and she begrudgingly accepts, but only because her collected evidence has led her directly to the suspicious DJ with a criminal record hired by the school. We would then help Veronica set up a complicated sting resulting in an impressive arrest and end the night dancing under a fake snowfall with our betrotheds, as Veronica sends us a quick "thanks for the backup" smile our way.
Imaginatively yours,
Us
Christmas Wishes
Yearningly yours,
Caitlin
