Updates and such...

Modern-Guilt is now twittering away. You may be asking yourself 'how many more things can S possibly be addicted to on the internet?'...and the answer is I've no clue, but this Twitter business is extremely fun. So yeah. There's a link to it here and on the sidebar if you ever feel like knowing what's going through my head at 2 a.m. on a Monday night.I've been tagged by the lovely Sueper of The Sueper Blog to share with ya'll the contents of the gigantic satchel full of receipts and gum wrappers that I carry around with me (more commonly known as my purse). The contents are more or less staples of anyone's purse, and are as follows: concealer, Dr. Pepper lip gloss, office and apartment building access cards, headphones, wallet, keys and suede gloves. The only integral thing that this photo lacks is my iPhone, and that would be for the very logical reason that the only thing a camera cannot see is itself (one of my favourite lines from the book Robot City which I've been trying to figure out a way to re appropriate into the blog for the past couple of days...yes, I am a huge sci-fi nerd).
I leave this tag open to anyone who wants to complete it! I hope that a lot of you do, as I'm sure most of you out there have much more thrilling purse contents than mine.

Before I sign off for the day I just want to wish you all a very, very happy Thanksgiving. We here in Canadaland celebrated it all the way back in October, but if you're reading this and you're American (or residing in some other country which celebrates it today...I can't say I'm that well-versed in international holidays) then know that G and I are wishing you the loveliest of days! In all fairness we wish that for you every day, but today is Thanksgiving so why not voice it publicly for once.

Check back early next week (we're aiming for Monday morning) to see the video in its entirety. In the meantime, I hope that everyone has the happiest of weekends!

Evol.

Since I have no outfit post to impart upon the blogosphere today, I wanted to instead give a bit of a run-down of things I am currently wanting/hating/loving. Regardless of the fact that I make them all the time for every task imaginable, there's a part of me which nonetheless finds lists daunting...but I shall put my unwarranted nervousness aside, so here goes.

Wanting

Fringed Balmain (or Balmain-esque) high-heeled boots. Seriously, how well would these go with my luxe-bohemian Winter 2008 plans? Very, very, superbly well is the correct answer! I'm hoping that this 'want' will become a 'have' faster than you can say Christophe Decarnin.

More faux and/or vintage fur. I currently have one vest, two coats, and six hats. While this may seem already excessive to some, in my opinion I still require a bolero/shrug and long-fitting vest. Obviously the above Jenni Kayne would be preferable, but since that's not exactly within my current budget I'm hoping that Toronto's thrift shops provide me with some wonderful surprises.

A Venti, soy, one pump sugar-free vanilla latte. Stat. (Though I'm pretty sure no one at my local Starbucks is capable - or willing - to make latte art as pretty as what's in the photo).

HatingThat I'm a bit of an idiot sometimes and hence burned a bit of my hair with a recently purchased professional flat iron which I stupidly put to the highest setting upon first use. It's nothing that a little trim won't fix up, but I nonetheless cannot stop touching this little bit of fried hair on my head and it's killing me.
The fact that it 'lightly snowed' yesterday evening. That is all.

Loving

Cozy evenings like the one I had last night, which only seem possible throughout the winter months when outdoor activity becomes virtually impossible. A bottle of Merlot, a great book, a blanket and a homemade meal are sometimes all it takes for me to be superbly thrilled with life. n.b. the fireplace has just been thrown into the above photo for dramatic effect, as I don't actually have a fireplace in my apartment...I wish I did, though, come to think of it.

Gossip Girl. Is it just me or has Serena really stepped it up this season fashion-wise? Maybe I'm just feeling her look more now than I was before, but last season I was all about Team Blair and things are slowly but surely changing in favour of Camp Serena, making my Monday night guilty pleasure more enjoyable than ever.

The top-secret, very exciting project that G and I are tirelessly working away at. Expect the results of it to be up and live on Modern-Guilt at some point this weekend or early next week - I really think you guys are going to be just as thrilled with it as we are, and I'm so excited to share it with you!

I hope all of you are having respectively spectacular Wednesdays. I will, of course, be back tomorrow...in my new Bebe bandage dress no less!
