In Love with Fall?

a new season.


there's no season like fall (aside from summer) to get excited. i would have to say that summer is my favourite season but fall is a close second. i'm sure everyone is excited to get out their winter clothes and have the undeniable excuse that yes, it is time for shopping. S-H-O-P-P-I-N-G. i could do it everyday. every single frickin' day. however, right now i am "unemployed" so my shopping is sadly limited. that does not stop me from window shopping and i wanted to share with you some fabulous things for this season . . .


ps. fingers crossed that i get a job in time for a New York trip in November to do some serious damage on Black Friday.

Good afternoon everyone! I am so excited that Christmas is only 7 weeks away and we fly home to Toronto in 6. Time to get shopping!!! For those of you who don't know, Etsy is a great site to find unique, fun items of all sorts that are made of recycled materials or gently used clothing/shoes. Most things are hand made and it is a great outlet for the creativeness of creative people. One of the blogs I follow, oh, hello friend has suggested a great Etsy shop for adorable doily clocks (see left). They are hand made by an artist named Brenda and run for about $26-$28.50 - what a cute Christmas gift! Check out Brenda's Etsy shop and furthermore, for her clocks and other fun pieces for the home.
Also, check out oh, hello friend for lots of inspiration, attention-to-detail EVERYTHING, and their Etsy shop that consists of great hand made rings, necklaces, hair accessories and more.

In other news! I'm thinking about taking my blog up a notch. I know I don't have too too many readers at this point and would like to change that by adding different sections on different things - what do you think? I would have a page just for reviews, a page for my personal blogging on my life & such, a page on my makeup business, a page on career, etc. If you have any suggestions/ideas/comments I would LOVE to hear them - please email me at fussyjussyblog@gmail.com.

Oh justine...

My eyes hurt from being on the computer too much. I have to force myself not to go on the computer. Is that a bad thing? My eyes start to hurt from staring at the screen too much and this is why I have not taken the time to blog. I've been living by myself for a week and a half and am anxious for Phil to return on Monday. Nothing too exciting has happened - the weather has been flawless! Sunny and hot every day, great for the beach. Phil and I are planning to have our late honeymoon/one year wedding anniversary celebration in a foreign destination at the end of September! Maybe the Mayan Riviera?! Maybe Tulum, Mexico?! If you have suggestions for all inclusive resorts, I would love them! With this in mind, I've been browsing the internet (of course) for cute dresses for our getaway, that's when I came across these fun sites - ladies, be prepared to fall in love. Fabulous finds for fabulous prices ~

I am also in love with shoe designer Sam Edelman (not the man himself, just his shoes) I am even considering buying another pair of the exact same sandals I own because I love them so much and want a second pair for when mine wear out. You can find great deals on Ebay & Amazon when it comes to getting Sam's sandals at a discount. Since I don't have any exciting news or radical opinions right now, I'm blogging about fashion. Can you believe we're already half way through July? Eeeeek. I shouldn't say it. But I will. Christmas is 6 months away...
