Life has been good. I sorry for not blogging, but I have been too busy being a kid. I think it's because every weekend I'm with my friends, I'm more independent. I miss summer, but I'm excited for winter. It snowed yesterday, and my nose went all rosy and fingertips were frozen. I finally got around to buying a coat (wool knitted jumper) along with a new hoodie and a rain jacket. Here is an old outfit post, along with some photography I've collected or edited the past few weeks. I hope everyone is well, and you can expect a post sometime this weekend because I have a 5 day weekend for Thanksgiving!

This seems like forever ago. This seems so much easier. So much lonelier. So much safer.

Autumn is here, well it might as well be. I find my days of wearing beautiful bare legs with shorts and skirts and dresses are coming to a close and I find myself wearing jeans and tights rather than not. The days where you squeeze into two hoodies just so you don't have to wear your coat are creeping up at me. The days of iced coffees and passion ice tea lemonades from Starbucks are now cozy afternoons bundled in scarves and toques with your pumpkin late, or your gingerbread late as the snowfalls down onto your face. Well, soon enough the snow will be here.
I'm excited for winter/autumn photography. I've always liked winter. Not the -30 Celsius you get sometimes, but the pink rosy cheeks, the snowcapped trees and the holiday warmth.
As for my blog-soul-searching, I've come to a conclusion all I need to settle my hearts content is a name change. That's what I meant when I said I didn't like nylonlove, I meant the name. I might start a new blog, but it would be all the same, maybe a little more photography, a little less gibberish fashion nonsense, but outfits and inspiration and things like that would stay.

Every time you close your eyes, rebellion lies

A photo I took today. I have an extra day this weekend so hopefully I can take some better ones. Anyways I've been debating about starting a new blog, because I'm not a huge fan of nylon love, and I'm really trying to be myself more.

But I shall leave you with this amazing video :)

When the smoke cleared, it took her breath away


I just decided to leave a quick post saying I'm going back to B.C. for a week. Once again, no internet, but I promise I will have loads of pictures when I come back because I'm going with my friend Tatum. Anyways I went to our community garden with my dad last night while he watered his garden and took some lovely photos :) I'm too lazy to post all of them so please check out my FLICKR FLICKR FLICKR FLICKR FLICKR

Short and sweet is all I intend.

Sooooooo maybe this won't be my super amazing post planned, but it's going to be pretty great (I think?) and long, so buckle your seatbelts. This post includes 3 outfits, 2 photography, 1 DIY, and 2 beauty reviews! Let's get started!


Scarf; Vintage, Skirt; Vintage, V-Neck; American Apparel


Top; Joe Fresh, Boyfriend Jeans; Value Village, Scarf; Vintage, Bag; Vintage


Now I didn't show you this one because the outfit is particularly amazing, but I am in love with this bag! I got it 2 years ago for my 11th birthday and I just found it in my closet ;) It's the perfect tote bag because you can carry it like a tote bag (straps), or no straps like in the pictures! Anyways - Ruffle Blouse; Guess, Shorts; Lacoste DIY, Bag; Song


Some beautiful flowers I took pictures of when I went on a bike with my Dad along the river a few days ago :)

Okay so here is the DIY- a pearl headband :)

what you'll need: 1 stretchy headband, 1 pearl necklace/bracelets/pearls that can cover at least half of the headband, and a glue gun.

1. Cut all clips/clasps off of the pearl jewelry
2. Start by glueing 2 inch sections of the necklace to the headband at a time
3. Repeat until finished! Remember to only stretch the left over headband part!

Beauty Review #1: Sally Hershberger Shampoo/Conditioner for Wavy Hair
I personally love this shampoo/conditioner! I previously have used Herbal Essences for as along as I can remember, but now the smells of the perfume in them have started to get to me so I decided to try this. And it's great! It has a light, refreshing smell, and leaves your hair soft and perfect waves! not only that, but it looks great in your shower hahaha !!

Beauty Review #2: MAC Eyeshadow in Gleam
Don't let the colour fool you! It did on me, when I first saw it, I thought it would be applied bright orangy gold, but it didn't. As long as you apply a light, even amount, it's a great gold hue, with pink/orange undertones. It subtly enhances your eyes and lips and stays on all day. Perfect amount of shimmer, and great for the price!

Well I hope you guys liked the post!! It took me like an hour to write hahahah! So hopefully I'm going back up to Kelowna BC with an old friend of mine soon, so that will result in some great pictures hopefully! I am also saving up for a big shopping spree as soon as possible! I have like $40 right now :) (36.50 for you Americans, 26 Euros for you Europeans, and 22 pounds for you English readers!)

Everything is cool as long as I'm getting thinner


Click the photos for links to my lookbook/flickr. If you have either, add me as a friend/hype/become a fan! I would appreciate it so much! And if anyone wants me to invite them to lookbook just send me an email :)

So yesterday me and my mom did some painting! The first flickr photo is mine, and my mom did a copy of Andy Warhols' "Shoes". I love it and I will post a picture when I get around to it.

But anyways, I wanted to ask you guys what you want to see more of! Outfits, photography, wishlists, interviews even? Thanks in advance for your advice :) And just to let you know, I'm going to try and plan a super awesome longg post sometime soon! xoxox

The water is warm, but it's sending me shivers.

Woot woot! 20 followers on blogger and blog lovin' combined :) Thanks everyone!

Anyways, I got my new camera, and it was love and first sight. And ofcourse, I went a little overboard on the colour accent feature








FRANCE TOMORROW!
