Angles

Saw this on Facebook this morning. Seemed apt though today ended up being a very quiet day. Just how I like my Mondays. And this is a short week for me plus I'm taking next week off so let's hope that Tuesday-Thursday are equally calm. That probably jinxed it.

Dress: Bryn Walker (last worn here)
Belt: Megan Mae (last worn here)
Hosiery: Wolford (last worn here)
Shoes: Messeca (last worn here)

It was strangely warm today. It's unheard of here for it to be +10C in January. I didn't even bother wearing a hat or a scarf or winter boots today. It won't last though so I'll be back to bundling up tomorrow.

Wolford's pantyhose are amazing. I've worn these at least 6 times and there's zero damage to these. That makes them worth the money in my book. Stupid drugstore hose barely last one wearing.

I purposely paired up this dress with the XX's on these tights. I love it when a plan comes together.

Bye bye Monday. Thanks for being painless.

High saturation

Saturday has been pretty lovely so far, despite the fact that I haven't done much other than get a prescription renewed, return my refundables for money, reinflate my tires and take my friend out for breakfast because she's had a bad week. Oh, and I also went to Victoria's Secret to buy another bra in a style that I quite like.

Strangely I was the most dressed up person at the mall. Most people were wearing regular weekend jeans and sweaters but I also saw way to many sweatpants and uggs or flannel pajama bottoms and uggs. WHY?? WHY?

New hair - or really back to my old hair. The red seems much more visible now on the left side. I think that's because my bangs are a little thicker.

Off to have a nap and then out for dinner at a friend's house. Going to play some games. Fun!

Pastel Peplum

 Peplum Top, Lace Skirt, Pumps and Necklace-Mr.Price/Bag-Louis Vuitton/Bracelets-Forever New

I think this outfit is so pretty, I just love the soft feminine feel of the lace skirt alongside the peplum top. I also adore the colour of the top, the pastel blue combined with the pink from the necklace looks lovely! The shoes seemed to go perfectly with the top, and added a bit of a whimsical feel with the sweet cat print :) 

Have an amazing weekend everyone!! 

Fragile Bird

It's been a bit of an emotional and stressful week. I'm closely identifying with the City and Colour song Fragile Bird.

However, it's Friday and I got my hair done after work today and then had a lovely dinner with my BFF so let's put the week behind us! YAY!

Dress: Stills (last worn here)
Tights: Modcloth
Shoes: Fluevog Wonders | Ayers (last worn here)

I've mentioned on here before that my least favourite colour is pink. So tell me, why did I buy these tights? It's not like I saw them in a store and they were $5 and I thought "what the hell". I actually consciously ordered them from Modcloth.  Odd that. I'm not sure if I even like them since the gradient isn't very "gradienty". It's more like these tights are half pink/half black. Feedback appreciated.

One more week and then I'm taking a week of vacation. Good buy crappy ass week! Bring it on January - I can take it!

Fairy shoes

I wasn't going to blog today because after looking at these photos I thought "UGH! My crap day is evident all over my face. I CAN'T post these." But I'm not always going to have a good day so why not go for realism? I take photos of myself, everyday, at my job so I'm going to have up days and down days.

Today was a very down day. BUT, I'm feeling a bit better about things right now, I had a lovely conversation a little while ago that gave me a little pick up, so without further ado ...

Jacket: Jennifer Glasgow from The Workshop in Ottawa (last worn here)
Skirt: Desigual (last worn here)
Shoes: Poetic License (last worn here)

SO glad I'm getting my hair done on Friday...

These shoes always get a lot of comments. One lady described them as "fairy shoes" and a man on an elevator asked me if they were my dancing shoes. I think if I tried to dance in these I'd hurt myself.

Turning my back on the rest of the day. Here's to tomorrow being better.

Black And White

 Black Knit Vest- Woolworths/Jeans-Viking/Tee-Country Road/ Pumps- Mr.Price/Bag-Louis Vuitton/Bracelets- Sass Diva and Woolworths

I love the classic combination of black and white, I adore the crispness! It's another simple outfit of an oversized boyfriend tee, with my favourite boyfriend jeans but this time I added my black knit vest, I bought this ages ago- and I suddenly realised that it would look lovely paired with this outfit to finish off the look. I added my pointed grey pumps for a touch of colour and to bring in the greys of my bag:) 

Have a lovely day everyone!!

Not sure if I've mentioned on here that I'm Acting Director again for a few weeks, or potentially for 6 months depending on the outcome of an interview I had before Christmas. Because of that I had a very busy day today. So busy that apparently I couldn't even brush my hair before taking these photos.

I had run out at lunch to do some errands so I have windblown/hat head here.

Dress: Makenew (last worn here)
Belt: Noujica (last worn here)
Shoes: Dorothy Perkins (last worn here)

I think I need to have about an inch cut off the length of my hair. It's starting to look a little limp.

I was wearing a jacket with this dress but the photo I took with it on was pretty terrible so just use your imagination.

I dubbed this dress my "punctuation dress" when I wore it the first time. Seems pretty accurate.

Sorry about not having much to say. Hopefully tomorrow will be more interesting.
