I don’t know about the Sears photo but the third picture is definitely Vancouver. The building in the background is the Bay downtown, specifically the Georgia St facade.

I can sing along with this one like it’s a single in its own right, I’ve listened to it so many times!

I’m so sad to hear that. I LOVE Daniel Kim’s mashups.

Loved this look so much. Something else I love? Your username! I am rewatching Parks and Rec right now to bring some light to the end of a very dark year.

Did you see this one? I’m crying!

I just about lost it at work when he said “man everything stick up.”

HAPPY 50TH BIM!!!! I am so sad I am not on the island for all the celebrating :(

A good friend of mine is a Bajan Cumberbatch! Although it’s a lot less proper sounding when a Bajan says it (Cumba-batch) than when it is paired with the name “Benedict.”

Her most recent album, Emotion, is full of 80s pop gloriousness. I had that thing on repeat for weeks!

Hah! That’s Mike! He’s in a band one of my friends plays in. They are Canadian famous (ie. no one outside of Canada really know about them) but the lead singer, Josh, co-wrote Call Me Maybe so he kind of has name recognition.

I LOVE this line though:

RadioLab did a fantastic piece on Patient Zeroes, including tracing the AIDS virus back to its probably initial vector, a monkey or ape.

I jokingly call the cost of living here “mountain and ocean tax” because it’s such a beautiful place to live but boy, do you pay a premium for it. My parents immigrated here from an island in the Caribbean that is a playground for the wealthy, like Vancouver, but is still considered “developing nation.” I was talking…

The thing is, people act like it’s just freestanding homes (all selling for over $1mil in Vancouver proper) that are the problem; that its just whiny, entitled millenials who want houses with backyards for 1980s prices. But the issue is that now the people who would have bought humble freestanding homes are staying in…

I am not super light-skinned so I can’t speak to how it works for paler folks. They carry it at Sephora (and some Shoppers Drug Marts, if you’re in Canada) so maybe go in and ask for a jaw-line colour test?

She basically allowed it to inflate so that she could base her budget on it, make her look like a fiscal genius and then implement the 15% right before the election to make her look like she actually cares. She’s dragged her feet on building affordable rental housing; there is a less than 1% vacancy rate in Vancouver…

I totally agree about the dry patches thing. I try not to pick at my spots but as they fade away, they often get that dry “halo” of dead skin that other concealers and foundations cling to and draw attention to. Smashbox’s BB Water doesn’t do that.

I really like Smashbox’s Camera Ready BB Water. It’s very sheer but is buildable and doesn’t leave my face feeling greasy or like I’m wearing a ton of product all day. I don’t even have that great of skin (yay adult acne and acne scarring!) but with concealer, BB water and a little transluscent powder to set it all, I…

Naomi could teach the master class on shade. Queen of all things!

She’s from the same island as my family. I’ve only seen her once and she was a fierce angel, even swimming with the sea turtles. I could never rock any of these clothes but you do you, Robz, and get paid while you do it!
