Sat 10.25: Ghostly Wednesday, October 29, 2008 1:52 AM

Floral dress: H&M. Blue cashmere cardigan: vintage Jaeger (grandpa's). Bird & leaf necklace: Forever 21. Olive green cotton tights: Jessica (Sears). Navy brogues: Franco Sarto.

The past couple of days I've been too occupied with Brothers & Sisters to edit photos and write posts.

On Saturday K-line and I went to the Absolutely Vintage Sale in Leslieville that featured inventory from three different vintage stores / sources. There were some beautiful pieces, like the Chanel dress I found, but we left empty-handed. K took a few pictures at the sale, but I didn't, so keep an eye on her blog for those.

We checked out Gadabout Vintage (one of the stores at the sale) during our quest for food where I tried on the most gorgeous dress with the sweetest collar. It had a black ribbon threaded through it that could be tied into a bow at the back.

Now my teevee watching break is over and it's back to season one of Brothers & Sisters.

We are such series junkies! After finishing Las Vegas, Brother and Sister are my next goal, I have seen some episodes of the first season already, now I have to catch up. We should do a lazy tv evening together, it would be so much fun!

It would be! When I start watching series, I cannot stop watching because each episode is "only another 45 minutes" and before I know it's it's 4:44 in the morning. oops!

I have never watched that show, but people keep telling me that I should... Nice pictures, I think that you are really talented! I am sorry if I didn't get it before, but are you studying photography?

we are lost twins!! I do the same and cannot stop watching one episode after the other. I have seen Greys Anatomy in just a few days...such an addiction.

When did you take the photo of you in the dress? Not with me - unless I'm completely insane and forgot that moment. It's a terrific photo, btw.

Ah, no, I've been out of school for a while. I did study fine arts though.

I mostly use Photoshop to edit colours. As for camera settings it really depends on the situation -- it's always different.

& thank you!

I haven't watched Grey's. I don't know if I should -- there's so many seasons! I've already pretty much locked myself in the house staying up until the wee hours of the morning watching Brothers & Sisters and they're only in their third season. I feel like I've wasted all my days and cancelled all my tentative plans...though at least I saved money by not going window shopping!

(I just feel guilty because I wanted to take a walk today since it's gorgeous outside...but I watched teevee instead!)

In the dressing room, when I was about to change out of it. I opened the curtain for light, but you had already wandered off.

I have to say that greys best seasons were the first three with Dr. Burke after he left the show, it is not the same for me and it is getting downfall. the fourth season was quite boring. go for brothers and sister, I like the youngest brother. the actor is so cute.
