No promises, no demands

I called today's outfit "a reject from a Pat Benatar video". Specifically this one:

I used to love all the outfits in this video. I didn't understand that the ladies were supposed to be sex workers. Maybe I thought they were a dance troupe? Oh my naive youth.

I guess I need more layers and ripped tights and leg warmers.

Cardigan: Prive (last worn here)
Dress: McQ
Boots: Fluevog Fellowship | Roseabelle (last worn here)

Excuse the cranky face. I just spent 2 hours cleaning my pantry and my refrigerator. Can anyone explain why I had 8 half empty jars of salsa? Lots of great science projects!

I bought this McQ dress on HauteLook.com a few months ago and never wore it. I tried to sell it at a consignment store but there were no takers so I took it back. Threw it on today and did lots of exciting glamourous things like grocery shopping and the previously mentioned cleaning. Poor Lee McQueen is rolling over in his grave.

Pardon me, but I must leave now and prepare for my shoulder-shake dance-off with the local pimp. Where did I put my fishnet fingerless gloves.

By the by, my tattoo is healing quite nicely.

Black 'n Blue

I was in Ottawa again recently for work and I went to that store The Workshop again and bought this dress.

It came with a tie belt but I think I like it best without it.

Dress: Individual for iclothing co
Tights: Hue (last worn here)
Boots: Fluevog Fellowship | Roseabelles

I bought these boots in 2005 in Vancouver in the Fluevog Granville St store. I was a big splurge for me at the time. I don't wear them often enough. I think they were about $290 at the time. Wheee!

It's just a plain jersey fabric but the pleats on the bodice and the bell sleeves make it a little cuter.

And my watch and ring. Lots of animals on my accessories.

And tomorrow I'm getting my new tattoo of a bird - yet another animal to add to my collection. Wish me luck!
