holiday musing.

In an attempt to lessen our involvement in corporate profit, Jb and I have chosen to do our holiday shopping at local shops, craft fairs and/or buying second hand. Unfortunately neither of us are crafty enough to make our own gifts... unless macaroni portraits or finger paintings make good presents? No? Well in any case, it's actually made holiday shopping a lot more enjoyable. Getting the opportunity to check out some of our favorite local shops along Main Street (like Barefoot Contessa, Front & Co. and The Hach) was so much better than braving the malls or big box stores. However most of them were still packed with shoppers! It was also nice to have some quality time with our neighbourhood trees. They're so big and beautiful.

Oh, we also happened to find THE MOST ULTIMATE PHOTO SPOT EVER. No big deal, just a beautiful brick wall, perfect soft lighting and a random Christmas tree. It almost looks like a studio, but don't be fooled, it's a sketchy back alley. Yay!

my outfit details:
- Pearly blue sweater from Aberdeen Mall... sorry I forget the store!
- Surprise! Wearing the thrifted black velvet skirt again... ^_^
- Swedish Hasbeen High Penny Loafers
