Every time. EVERY. TIME. I just can't do pose studies without having my mascot, Rosemary, into a pin-up. Just can't.

why is this moth so underappreciated????
this is the pink belly moth, and they're ADORABLE
literally like rosy maple moths but their wing pattern is SOOOOO much prettier. Look at those colours??? That strip of yellow looks so pretty too. Show this boy some love :)
These are part of the geometridae family, one of my personal favourites :)

What do you mean, "I am overdressed for the beach"?
Today's little local history lesson that you won't find on any of the Village des écluses or Pointe-des-Cascades websites:
From 1900 to 1959, the Soulanges canal was where most boats would pass through to navigate the Saint-Laurent river in the area South-West of Montreal. At Pointe-des-Cascades, right next to the canal, there was an industrial site where all the maintenance materials for the canal were being built and stored, but when the canal closed in 1959, that site was left abandoned. In 1986, the site got revived, and the industrial buildings were repurposed as a summer theatre, restaurant and boutiques, and the riverside, as a small beach. However, the site was abandoned once again in the late 2010s, only to be picked up again by a new team wanting to restore the 80s resort it once was.
So, how is my 1980's does 1910's nautical outfit? I have also added a picture of my brother and I on that day, two pictures at Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue at sunset (with my sister and a different hat) and a picture of the abandoned "Hotel" (which was never a hotel) at Village des écluses, taken in April, on my Instagram post.
Outfit rundown
Skirt: vintage Pink House
Top: old Axes Femme
Hat: vintage
Shoes: old Queen Bee
Parasol/umbrella (served both purposes that day): Alice and the Pirates
Navy cat stamp brooch: Via Carousel
All other jewellery: vintage
