Omnibus post

Another week, another catch up post. I thought when I got my couch I'd be all over the blogging again but I've just turned into a potato instead. So here I am doing an "omnibus post" again. And it's a long weekend for us so I'll be away until next Tuesday. I can't believe it's August already!

July 26

I think my face says it all. This outfit was boring. I was wearing a belt earlier but I had a roti for lunch which made me all "bloaty" so I took it off.

Dress: thrifted
Shoes: Fluevog Truth | Pilgrim (last worn here) 

Yeah, pretty underwhelming. I might put this dress in my donate pile. That would help free up some space in my closet.

On Monday I wore my bat dress. Ok, it's not really a bat dress but I think the embroidery at the bottom looks like flying bats.

Dress: Free People (last worn here)
Shoes: Fluevog Hopefuls | Assured (last worn here)

  

See, it even has wings on the sides. Like bats!

Tuesday's outfit wasn't photo worthy so lets move on to Wednesday, July 31.

Cardigan: Pretty Things Boutique
Dress: Judy Tampa (last worn here)
Shoes: Fluevog Bellevues | Laura Evans (last worn here)

This outfit made me happy. Black dress and leggings, purple cardigan, shoes with pink buckles.

*wink*

Yesterday I had my coloured and cut. The red is gone. It's been 7 years so it was time.

Have a nice weekend everyone.

Just got home from getting my haircut. Voila!

I kept the length but got my bangs trimmed up. I feel more like me again.

Cardigan: Pretty Things Boutique (last worn here)
T-shirt: Reitmans
Skants: Melow par Melissa Bolduc from the Workshop (last worn here)
Tights: Anna Sui (gift from Megan Mae!)
Shoes: Fluevog Truth | Pilgrim (last worn here)

I cut my feet off. Whoops.

Funky tights, eh? Thank you so much Megan for sending these too me. I got lots of complements on them while I was out and at the hair salon. Fun and funky.

Going out now to take my recycling back. WHOOO!

In which our heroine actually smiles with teeth

I'm waiting for a package that was supposed to be delivered by end of day today, which was an hour ago according to UPS. Such a frustrating exercise when these things don't show up when scheduled. *mutters angrily* *kicks things*

Yes this is totally a "first world problem" but I want my package!

Today I tried something new - smiling with teeth rather than just smizing at the camera! I'm usually very uncomfortable smiling in photos since I don't really have a chin and when I smile that particular affliction becomes more noticeable.

Focusing on the positive, I like how this dress emphasizes my favourite body part - my neck.

Dress: Thrifted from Formerly Yours (local)
Necklace: Pretty Chic
Shoes: Fluevog Truth | Pilgrim

Pretty psychedelic dress, eh? I almost didn't buy this dress because the purple and yellow (gold) combination reminds me of high school. These were my school colours. Eck!

I bought these shoes at the Gastown store in Vancouver in 2010. I almost didn't get this colour because I didn't think it was very versatile but I'm glad I took a chance.

I also wasn't sure about the "white wax" coating but I really like how the blue colour underneath is starting to show through as the wax starts to wear off.

These shoes were the shoes of my dreams in the 1980s. Pointy toes, big buckles - glad I can have them now.

I also have a pair of my other dream shoes, the Munster. If only I had the courage to wear them.
