OMG you GUYS!!!!

Look what I found! 

A Zandra Rhodes silk dress! WHOOOOOOO!!

It's not zany like some of her other dresses but it has shells on it. Reminds me of my Atlantic Canada life.

and a pretty ruffle on the top. For $70!

I'm pretty chuffed!













My apartment is drying out and today I went to Canadian Tire (a hardware store that is a Canadian institution) and bought some plastic bins to put my shoes in. I'm having my carpet cleaned on Tuesday because my place smells like a swamp but after my apartment gets back to normal I'll be much more confident about putting them back under my bed.

Only one pair is truly ruined and they were not very expensive so I'm thanking my lucky stars.

Here's what I wore on Friday.

Blouse: Love Charles Vintage
Skirt: H&M
Shoes: House of Harlow 1960 (from Gilt)

I saw these shoes at Hudson's Bay a few weeks ago and loved them so very much but they didn't have my size. So I "Binged that shit" (googled them) and found them on Gilt.com.

So flappery. So pretty. I figure that since I threw out a pair of shoes this week and lost a pair in my flood that it was ok to bring another pair into the house.

Now I need a proper flapper dress to go with these beaded beauties.

I'm not sure if this top really matches the rest of the outfit but it was nice and cool to wear on a hot day. I don't own very many blouses. I tend to buy dresses but when I do buy skirts I forget that I need something to wear on the top. I need to rectify that.

Celebrate good times, COME ON!

Howdy! I spent the weekend at home with family celebrating Mother's Day, my BIL's birthday, and my birthday, which is on Wednesday. I got all my presents yesterday so I won't have anything to open on my actual birthday. BUT, it also happens to be International Fluevog Day so maybe I need to buy MYSELF a present? Because I need another pair of shoes like I need more caffeine at 8pm.

Here's my outfit from Friday, May 10.

My "super secret" lunchroom isn't so secret after all so I found an empty meeting room. I was making shadow puppets on the flip chart. See, I made a left hand!

Top: Love Charles Vintage on Etsy (last worn here)
Dress: Vero Moda from M for Mendocino on Queen Street
Boots: Fluevog 11th Hour (last worn here)

This dress was uber cheap but I can see myself wearing the hell out of it this summer. It's just a plain black jersey maxi dress but it's so comfortable and easy to layer things over. Like this top.

And I had to wear my spatty boots with my spatty top. I was super comfortable all day, and pretty darn cute.

True confessions? I wore the dress again on Saturday and again tonight. Maybe I need to get another one in grey or red?

Gonna watch hockey now.

The 300

I AM SPAT-AAAAAA!

Wearing a shirt with shoes with spats on them, to be exact. (ok, that was really lame. Don't blame a girl for trying to be creative.)

But seriously, could there BE a more perfect shirt motif for me? I think not.

Shirt: Love Charles Vintage on etsy
Dress: Ballerina Cut-out dress (last worn here)
Shoes: Fluevog Miracle | Meera  (last worn here)

Since this is my 300th post, I thought I'd wear my favourite new shirt, my favourite dress, and these shoes that I haven't worn in almost a year.

I wish I had some "spatty" type shoes that would match this outfit. I must keep my eyes open for some red buttony boots.

300 posts is no where as exciting as Sheila's 1400 but I'm pretty thrilled that I've lasted this long blogging.

Here's to another 300. Thanks everyone for your positive feedback and support!
