Blue And Grey Stripes

 Jersey- Trenery/ Jeans- Edgars/Slippers- Cotton On/ Skull bracelet-Sass Diva/Rings-Wooworths& Sass Diva
When I wear simple, casual outfits I like to liven them up a little bit with accessories. Be it a pair of quirky shoes or some funky jewellery, I think it can change the whole look of your outfit. For this outfit, I decided to wear my new loafers from Cotton On, they're quite fun in the sense that they have the chain detail and the patent toe, I also wore my new skull bracelet which I love. In fact I'm lusting after it in different colours haha:) I love the fit of this jersey, and the two colours are beautiful!

Have a wonderful day everyone!!

Cute or Ridiculous?

This outfit was inspired these boots and by Melanie from Bag and a Beret's Monday outfit. Melanie always looks so funky and chic. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that this entirely works on me. At work today I kept saying that I knew I looked ridiculous but I was Honey Badger* about it.


Sweater: Danier via Value Village
Necklace and Dress: from Meow
Bloomers: from some store in Paris
Boots: Fluevog Bellevue | DeVere

Grey tights might have been better to give this a solid long line.

I didn't have any meetings today or really any this week, which is rare, so I felt it was ok to take a risk and wear these bloomers. I'm not really sure how to style them. I might end up giving them to my husband for his studio wardrobe.





















I bought these boots about a year ago and returned them because I didn't think I'd wear them but I kept thinking about them. Then the black paisley design sold out.

Unfortunately I noticed last week on the website that this colour was restocked. Now they are MINE! MINE! ALL MINE!













* Honey Badger don't care. Honey Badger don't give a shit.

Pyjama dress 2: Electric Boogaloo

She - Wore - LEMON....



Sweater: Club Monaco
Scarf: came with a hank of hand dyed yarn by knitivity.com
Dress: eShakti
Shoes: Hush Puppies from beyondtherack.com

Got these shoes from Beyond the Rack - one of those discount designer/name brand clothing websites. They were super discounted so I thought, what the hell. And they're yellow.

Since I tend toward outfits that are "matchy matchy" I decided to wear them with my yellow pyjama dress.

It was a grey, foggy day here so this was a nice sunny choice. It's not the most inspired outfit ever though.

Comfy shoes, pyjama dress = slightly yawn?


This is probably something that Captain Obvious would say but these also look good with jeans.

In other news, I'm so happy that I'm going to be getting my haircut this week. My "Louise Brooks" style is starting to look more "Little Lord Fauntleroy".

Black Jersey


I forgot to take my camera to work again today. Luckily it was still bright and sunny when I got home.


Dress: Shabby Apple from Pretty Things Boutique
Tights: Simon in Montreal
Shoes: Fluevog Wonders | Ayers

The dress was last worn here and the shoes were worn here.

Just a plain black dress with plain-ish black shoes, jazzed up with fancy tights. Yes, unfortunately it's still tights weather here though it's getting warmer. Makes me believe spring will finally come.

Sometimes the simplest outfits are the best outfits.




Just because you go simple, doesn't mean you can't add some subtle pizzazz.

And an update on my cat, Jetta. She had an ultrasound today and her bladder looks fine but her intestines show some issues that could be irritable bowel syndrome or lymphoma. We're treating her UTI and hopefully she'll keep eating well and gain her weight back. If she stops eating again, we'll consider getting a biopsy to determine what to do next. Poor sweet girl.

Back To School

 Jersey-Mr.Price/Jeans and Plimsoles- Woolworths/Rings-Sass Diva
This jersey is so cool! I love the whole 'school' feeling it gives off. I chose it in a bigger size so it would be a little bit more slouchier and give that whole 'boyfriend' look to the outfit (my hair even seemed to disappear in the slouchiness haha). And I'm wearing my plimsoles again, what can I say they're so comfy but look great too! It's a simple but casual look, which is what I love! :) How was your weekend? 


Have an amazing week everyone!!

Sunday

My photos from Friday will unfortunately never see the light of day because my photo card broke. Too bad since my outfit was so cute.

Here's a crappy iPhone photo that I took of my skirt and shoes.


Porcupine! I got this skirt from etsy from Salmon Street Studio which seems to have closed.

I was wearing my emerald green Smoking Lily blouse with it.

I may have mentioned on here that I have 3 cats - Dougal, Merlin and Jetta. Jetta was quite old when we adopted her - the shelter guessed she was about 10 - which was about 4 years ago. She's the sweetest cat in the whole world. On Thursday we noticed that she was off her food which is very unusual for her since there's nothing she likes more than food. Yesterday we took her to the vet and the news isn't great. She's lost almost a kilogram which is a lot when you only weigh 3kg to begin with, she was a bit dehydrated and there's lots of nastiness in her urine. Tomorrow she's having an ultrasound of her bladder to see if she has tumours and she's being tested for hyper-thyroidism. Poor little thing.


Spare a thought for my Jetta-girl tomorrow if you can.
