Second verse, same as the first

This outfit is almost an exact rerun of November 23 so I only took one photo. I really need a haircut - luckily that will be happening on Friday.

I look rather meh because I'm feeling meh. I think I'm in the throws of a rather bad dose of PMS. This too shall pass.

Dress: Individual for iclothing co
Tights: Hue
Shoes: Fluevog Wonders | Ayers (last worn here)

I spent part of my evening trying to clean up my basement. I filled up 3 garbage bags and still don't feel like I've made much progress. There's another few evenings of work to do before I can properly use the space for anything other than storing junk.

I found two yearbooks and a bunch of photos from Junior High and High School. I'll maybe scan a few and post them. From my blonde past.

Tomorrow is my last work day this week. Hopefully I'll be less meh and more YEH!

Feel the heat, pushing you to decide

Oh dear. I think this outfit is pushing the envelope a little bit. This is a little more "night at the disco" than "working in the office". But...not sure I'm too concerned since I spent the day in my office alone or on conference calls. No one saw me other than my coworkers. And now, all of you.

Dress: Emily Ryan on etsy
Belt: Noujica from The Workshop in Ottawa (last worn here)
Tights: Emilio Cavallini from Peek Brooklyn
Shoes: J. Crew (last worn here)

My favourite parts of this dress are the cut outs at the collar bone.

And these tights are so awesome. You can wear them with the pattern up the front or down the back. Because the dress is longer at the back, I put the pattern at the front.

I'm not sure about the "mullet" style but it's a very comfortable dress. I can see me wearing the hell out of this. Totally worth the cost.

This would be a great fancy party dress. Now, I just need to get invited to a party where this would be appropriate.

Next time I wear this to work I'll probably dress it down to be less provocative.

Smoldering black and flaming red

So Saturday night I went out to a house party. From what I remember, I had a great time! Although, there may have been a moment when we were dancing to Baby Got Back. *hangs head in shame*

Not unsurprisingly Sunday was a low key day. I slept in, walked to my friends house to get my vehicle, and did some..... COOKING! I made pork dumplings and curried squash/sweet potato soup. This is rather odd for me as I do not enjoy cooking and generally am not very good at it.

Dumplings! Om nom nom!

Today's outfit is fine but rather uninspired.

Top: Annie 50 (last worn here)
Tie belt: from a store in Winnipeg (last worn here)
Skirt: Secret Lentil (last worn here)
Tights: from Iceland (last worn here)
Boots: Fluevog Hope | Desire (last worn here)

This outfit is pretty comfortable since all the fabric is cotton/jersey. I like the details at the bottom of the skirt though I think I'm over the "serged edges on the outside" style.

Back shot doesn't really seem necessary in this outfit but here it is anyway. Baby Got Back? Seems to be a theme.

Here's my pin. It's a cute little Alice in Wonderland with a "Drink me" bottle. I bought this at a craft show a few months ago. I just rediscovered it. Cute!

Henry Holland Tee

 Tee- Henry Holland for Mr.Price/Jeans-Zara/Shoes-Mr.Price/Bracelet-Hermes

I was so excited when I saw this tee in stores, I'd been looking forward to the Henry Holland range for Mr. Price ever since I first heard about the collaboration :) I love the colours, and the print is absolutely stunning. I opted for a casual outfit, with my Zara baggy jeans and these gorgeous pumps with gold and coral detail. 

Have an amazing day everyone!!

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.

Two for one

I didn't blog yesterday because I went out to a charity event for Dress for Success, drank a little too much and went right to bed after coming home.  I think...

Here's what I wore yesterday.

Shirt: Spaks Mannsspjarir from Reykjavik
Dress: from Crimson and Clover (last worn here)
Tights: Hue
Boots: from Las Vegas (last worn here)

The big silver necklace I got at Meow in Guelph. I found it in my desk drawer at work. I've been looking everywhere for it. I last wore it in February. Whoops.

I started the day wearing these shoes but I put my boots on because I was cold. Stupid winter. That's also why I put a sheer shirt on under this dress. Added warmth.

I don't know why I'm standing pigeon toed in this photo.

Here's what I wore today. Not very adorned or inspired. What can I say? I was hung over.

Shirt: Papillon (last worn here)
Jeans: Trapper Jane (last worn here)
(apparently I've worn this combo before)
Boots: Fluevog Rivers (last worn here)

Kinda boring. I should have worn a sweater with this because I froze all day.

I don't know what I'm looking at here. God I look tired. Maybe I should go to bed now...Zzzz.

Baby Pink Blazer

 Blazer, Shorts and Loafers- Mr.Price/Bag- Furla Candy Bag/ Bracelet-Sass Diva/ Cuff- Hermes/ Necklace-Mr.Price

This is my ideal outfit, a blazer paired with shorts and a simple vest! I absolutely adore the simplicity of the outfit, yet it still manages to look pulled together. This blazer is such a lovely colour, I'm definitely a fan of pink hehe:) I paired it with my new necklace, which I love- the yellow is just amazing! And to finish off the outfit, I grabbed my candy bag: I love the colour of the bag combined with the blazer. 

Have an amazing weekend everyone!!
