As me and my boyfriend’s relationship has progressed over the last couple of years, my love for his little teacup Yorkie, Dexter, has grown as well. He is hyperactive and can be notoriously fickle, but there are times (usually when we have sufficiently tired him out) when his sweet, cuddly side comes out. Sometimes when I am sitting on the floor typing on my computer he will march himself right next to me, lie down and make sure the whole side of his body touching mine. And then if he is feeling extra cute he will re-adjust himself and put one little paw on my leg. My boyfriend sometimes jokes that he knows I will never leave him because I couldn’t bear to say goodbye to Dexter… and that may very well be true!

By the way, is it tacky to share how much I paid for a piece of clothing? Oh well if it is, because I’m happy to say that I got this pretty ‘golden mustard’ pleated skirt for about 85% off at Gap the other day, paying a grand total of $12! I never shop there but decided to wander in because I had a bit of time to kill, and found this little gem floating in the sales racks!

Do you surf the internet for hours on end, right clicking and “Save As’-ing photo upon photo of striking images for inspiration? I don’t know about you, but if you’re anything like me then your computer hard drive is filling up quickly with said images (and if you’re also anything like me then you also find it a pain in the butt to organize everything found!).

You can follow your favourite “Pinners” for a one-stop ‘shop’ of beautiful things so that you can soak in all the good stuff with just the click of a button!

Once I signed up, I was able to drag a “Pin It” button onto the taskbar of my internet browser. Now, every time I see an image I like, all I have to do is click the button and decide which of my boards I want to add it to. Easy!

I’ve found so many more worthwhile images in just a few minutes of browsing the site than I would have in a much longer time of browsing the internet. It’s always hard for me to really get into a new online network or website, but this is truly a breeze and completely fun. I totally recommend getting involved!
