Over the holidays I ordered a few T-shirts from Society 6 by an artist named PaperBeatScissors. This one has all the Pokemon from the old games!
And I got Nash a shirt full of Smash Bros characters.
Aren’t they both adorable? I love buying original printed shirts online (but can’t this month because it is part of my 30 Day Challenge).
I ordered this Hotline Bling sweater from The Yetee during their Black Friday reprint. This is so 2015 but now I feel like a true Torontonian.
My boss gave me a pair of glovely touch screen gloves for Christmas! Maybe he thinks I am on my phone too much (sometimes). These are awesome. The entire glove is touch screen compatible (not just the tips like most gloves). They also have a little magnetic logo to keep both gloves together for all the clutsy people who lose gloves (me).
Last but not least, the tag is even a microfibre glove. Now I can stay warm while I tweet and blog this winter.
It’s getting cold here but my hands are totally ready with these new mitts I got at work!
Ok, I admit I clicked on a Facebook ad. It led me to TeeTurtle, a site that sells cute, nerdy T-shirts! I ordered two as a test for $12 each, which is a decent price for original prints. My order came in an adorably packaged envelope with the site mascot. Wouldn’t you be so excited if you saw this in the mail?
The first shirt was this “Pokermon” T-shirt. Get it?
It’s such a corny joke but look how adorable they all are.
My second choice was a more girl power print with a bunch of princesses gossiping by a fire. I think Sleeping Beauty is my favourite part of this.
This one looks a bit looser because I accidentally ordered a “standard T-shirt” instead of a Women’s T-shirt, which are usually cut differently. That’s okay though! I love this print so much.
The prints are vivid and great quality. The fabric is comfy and soft. It also arrived sooner than I thought, since the shipping wasn’t very expensive (around $2). I’ll definitely be browsing the site for more cute tees soon.
I learnt about Very Cool Shirtz through Ryan Hemsworth. When they released this Fuchsia City tee from Pokemon I thought I had to have it! I’m at Atomic Lollipop this weekend and it’s totally appropriate wear.
I added to my Japan LA Hello Kitty x The Simpsons collection with this totally colourful and adorable reversible tee. How could I resist wearing all those donuts?
I wore it to Bestival last weekend and was approached by many people who asked if I knew that Homer and Marge were getting divorced. That was rather random.
Whether you’re working or just busy, don’t forget to sneak a bit of yourself in each day. It’s totally key to happiness. Whether it’s eat your favourite food during a quick lunch, or listen to your favourite songs as you type those spreadsheets, giving yourself something you can have total control of results in a more positive attitude. For me, it’s sneaking a little bit of something into my wardrobe. I like to sneak in some fun socks underneath my formal attire.
Last year during music festival season I got rained on a couple of times. While plastic bags and disposable ponchos saved me sort of they weren’t that good for keeping water out. By the end of the day, I was freezing. This year I decided I wouldn’t let that happen and so I bought a raincoat that was both functional and stylish.
I visited Raindrops at Yonge & Bloor which had a great assortment of jackets and rain accessories. I fell in love with the Helly Hansen Kirkwall coat in purple! It’s well fitted and has a tie around the waist. It’s also both wind and waterproof with a venting back. SO I AM TOTALLY READY FOR YOU RAIN. COME AT ME.
My favourite new daily accessory is the Power Wallet from The Photojojo. It’s a super functional faux-leather wallet/clutch that has a built in battery for charging my phone.
Inside it came with instructions and an adapter for my iPhone 5S. The battery can be charged by plugging the USB end to your computer or Apple blocks. On full charge, the wallet can charge around 1 and a half iPhones to full.
The phone fits right in when you are charging it so you can use it as a mini clutch. There are also many slots and sections for coins, cash and cards. Now I’m ready for a night on the town without my phone dying on me!
