I don't know about you guys, but I will (grudgingly) admit that the weather where I live sucks. It's been raining daily. Even hailed. But, today, I woke up and saw "sun" (i.e. no clouds)! I was so excited. Obviously, this meant a day filled with bright colours and bike rides! Okay, even though I still had to wear tights and a blazer... The point is, sun, I'm sorry I used to wish for your disappearance. I long for the heat that you brought... (Why is my relationship with the sun so indecisive?) But I'm still loving fall!
I get an uncountable amount of stares when I go biking. It's pretty humorous and enjoyable. I love to go downtown and just people watch. There's a lot of sketchy - ahem - interesting people downtown. I love it.

^ Is it incredibly dorky to say that I'm proud of that picture? My jumping shot? It's Facebook display worthy, except I feel like that would make me look really narcissistic. But, you know, in theory...
Also, I think that it's totally amazing that you guys have made puffy skirts. I'm seriously shocked and stoked. My sib (ling) wore one that I made her today, so I thought I'd do some harmless marketing.
Please imagine an informercial voice: Do you love puffs? Do you love skirts? If so, make your own puffy skirt! Only with Girl with the Bow Tie does this offer apply... (yadda, yadda. I'm such a nerd!)
Hope you guys have a fabulous - and possibly sun filled? - weekend! For all you Canadians, happy Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for lots of things this year - family, friends, education, food, travel, creativity, sunshine, and life. And that people actually read my blog! Har-har, I'm filled with thanks!
What things are you thankful for?
(I know this question is mainly directed to Canadian bloggers - Gooo Canada! - but I'd love to hear anyone's list!)

Oh, you've made me want to go out an get a bike. I really want one with a little basket - it would be perfect for carrying fresh-baked baguettes around. All these colors thrill me - I so adore this post! And your little sis is so cute - she reminds me of Blair Waldorf in that picture! :)

I love the skirt in the last photo. I also think the shots riding the bicycle are awesome. it is fun to people watch. One of my favorite things to do. People can be so weird it is frightening!

amazing skirt
Happy Thanksgiving! And cool bike! I've seen one around my school and thinks its awesome haha

Is it weird that I like your bike more than your outfit. But that doesn't mean I don't like your outfit. That blazer is amazing! But seriously, I'm so envious of your bike. It's so nice.
Forever XXI was amazing but, like I said, it was PACKED!!!!
Thanks for Commenting

The skirt you made for your sister is amazing. You're really talented. I hope you had a good weekend as well.

Love these photos!! I love riding bikes!! When I went to Amsterdam everyone rode old fashioned bikes everywhere as daily transport was awesome, the cycled carrying flowers, with their newpapers under one arm, with someone sitting sideways on the back.. was so cool.. if only people did that here in Ireland, althou its pretty hilly!!:)
