Buy me a martini

Just back home from dinner at a diner nearby. Burger, poutine, and cherry pie with ice cream. I am very full.

It's too darn hot, too darn hot here so going out to a place with air conditioning was a good idea but I ate too much.

Dress: Bettie Page via Modcloth (last worn here)
Shoes: Swedish Hasbeens (last worn here)

A hot day called for a sleeveless dress. I take medication that tends to make me sweat so avoiding the dreaded "pit stain" is important to me. Seems like I'm going to need to get a few more sleeveless dresses if it's already 30C at the end of May.

This dress has cocktail glasses on it and I got it from Modcloth a year or more ago. It's a nice bright yellow, as are these shoes.

I had a secret under the dress. This very relevant slip.

Buy me a martini, indeed! Alas, I stuck with beer tonight. Hope everyone is keeping cool.

Do you happen to have a pair of birds that are... just friendly?

Oh FRABJUS day! Canada Post found my shoes!

In case you had any doubts that Sheila and I were "opposite coast" twins, independent of each other, we both ordered the same shoes from the Fluevog sale.

I bought them in black though.

Canada Post called me today to say that they had finally been delivered to the retail postal outlet - a week after I received the delivery notice.

Someone described these shoes as "business from the front, party from the rear". If it was you, let me know so I can properly credit you.

I may wear these tomorrow.... OK I TOTALLY WILL WEAR THESE TOMORROW!

So what did I wear today?  I know you're dying of curiosity.

I wore my "homage to Hitchcock's The Birds" skirt today.

T-shirt: Joe Fresh
Cardigan: Joe Fresh
Skirt: defunct etsy shop
Shoes: Swedish Hasbeens from endless.com

Whenever I wear this skirt, I'm always surprised by the fact that people either don't see the giant Hitchcock screen print or they see it right away and totally get the reference to the film The Birds. If they are the latter then I know they are good people.

I wore this skirt in NYC in 2008 when I went to see The 39 Steps.

Here's proof!  HAR HAR! I'm oh so clever and I'm so pleased with my cleverness.

It was a very good play too. Only 4 cast members to play all the story's characters and it was pretty hilarious.  Good times, good times.

What is going on with my hair in this photo? It must have been humid as hell in NYC for my hair to resort to this flippy madness.

More shoes. These were my first purchase from endless.com. They only recently started shipping to Canada.

I have to admit that I saw them on Miss Malaprop's blog, discovered that they were on über sale at endless so I bought them despite my shopping ban.

I've never been a fan of the Hasbeens before but I do like these with the ankle strap.
