Weekend-ish Wrap-Up: Brunch Bronze and Denim; Burrito Block Print

Welcome back, my friends! Woo, the Day of Indolence took it out of me! L and I mostly hid from the world for the full weekend, only venturing out for brunch on Saturday and a quick dash for burritos and groceries on Monday. 

Here's Saturday brunch, built around the most swooshy skirt I own. 

I'm enjoying taking my ultra-dressy items down a notch to see how they work in a casual wardrobe. 

• T-shirt - Blondie, thrifted, not tracked
• Denim fin top - 3.1 Phillip Lim, consignment; last seen here in January, over an orange sweater dress
• Silk blend skirt - Ralph Lauren, consignment; last worn here in October 2025 for Saturday brunch in orange
• Denim jacket by Plu++ Plulavie, consignment; first seen here in May with pink plaid
• Sneakers - Converse; last worn here in May with optic chartreuse

It was a windy day, so I wanted something that would really swoosh.

I looked at a t-shirt, but I needed some sort of layer - the fin top! 

And then...why not a little more denim on top of that? 

I really liked all the uneven hemlines around the hips. This felt very cool. 

I strolled down to meet L after his Ultimate Frisbee game. 

Yes, he played the morning after the DOI! 

The stuff: 

Comfy shoes - I love the extra chunk of the thick soles. 

• Leather purse - vintage 80s, thrifted
• Shell brooch - JJ, vintage 80s, consignment, Powell River

Pearly bling: 

Necklace stacking is a thing...again! Did you know that? I am amused by how these things come around, over and over. 

• Leather cuff - thrifted
• Gold-tone cuff - Mom's, vintage 70s
• Silver/gold/amethyst cobra rings - vintage fair
• Silver/crystal ring - Uffizi Gallery gift shop, Florence
• Pearl ring - The Pearl Factory, Honolulu, c. 1985
• Pearl necklace - thrifted
• Gold-plated pewter necklace - Robert Larin, vintage 70s, vintage mall, gift from L
• Gold-tone necklace - Givenchy, vintage 80s, vintage fair
• Pearl earring - Aldo
• Pearl spiral earring - Martha Sturdy, vintage fair

Whateley kept me company while I wrote on Saturday. 

He kicked all of my stuff out of its storage, then slept on the bags. 

Barnabas hid from the world on the bed. 

Such a sweet little guy.

After a couple of days of hanging out, playing boardgames, reading and listening to music, L and I ventured out to get groceries on Monday.

What's that I see? Another whole week off? I'm in! 

• Cotton dress - Malia, vintage 70s, Hawaiian, consignment; last worn here (2nd outfit) in August 2025 for brunch
• Shoes - Fly London, thrifted; first seen here in September 2025 for a wee shop

I wore minimal make-up and didn't even dry my hair! Such a rebel.

The temps soared to 23 degrees, so I broke out this cotton long Hawaiian block print dress. 

Since we had a few things to pick up in the area, L and I had a quick lunch at Boomtown.

Yum, I cannot get enough of their breakfast burrito. 

Scarf on, ready for the convertible! 

After lunch, we did a quick grocery shop, and then home again to hide from the world. 

Rock on! 

My Vera scarf matched perfectly. 

The stuff: 

These shoes are comfy, and excellent for a hot day.

• Suede purse - Dooney & Burke, consignment
• Silk Scarf - Vera, thrifted

Black and white bling: 

Longtime favourites. 

• Black and white bracelet - vintage fair
• Black and white bangles - consignment
• Earrings - W. Germany, vintage 80s, vintage fair
• Silver/crystal ring - Soul Flower
• Silver "Anneke & Lars" ring - vintage mall

Someone needed a hug. 

Whateley matches my print! 

Me and L rocking it at Boomtown. 

Happy Birthday week, love! 

The kittens look like they're planning something. 

They love Angus here (and so do we). 

L and Whateley on the deck. 

Aw, a man and his cat. 

I'll be back in a few days! Thank you so much for being here.
