The Week That Wasn't

The cold I brought back from New York has been a nasty motherf**cker that has knocked me out for the last week.  In addition to missing three days of work, I have taken no photos.   When I am able to stop coughing for more than 5 minutes, I'll be out in the world again.  In the meantime, here are some photos that I took before my trip...

When I was at the Western Fair Farmers' Market I spotted one of London's Roller Derby Girls, Glamarchist, wearing this awesome bicycle print coat.  She said it was from Smoking Lily in Vancouver

I love coats that have a unique print or colour - such a nice visual vacation from all the black that starts coming out this time of year


 I love her whole look, especially the skulls and hearts leggings.  I took a closer look at her jacket...

her self-made statement for the day....she's got hat-itude AND attitude

    Hi Shelley, so sorry to hear you've got the damn plane virus. I hate getting sick from a vacation. But from the proof in the photos you must have had a splendidly gleeful time!
    Love that pin, what a great way to carry around a message. Looks like a somewhat easy project too.

    Get well this weekend!

    I must have caught the same cold! Sorry to hear that it's keeping you down, and hoping that you feel better soon. These photos fill you post with spirit and looking forward to seeing you back behind the camera, or in front of the camera, soon.
