A day off

Friday, April 20

This is Friday's outfit but I just got around to posting it now because yesterday I spent most of the day helping my husband to pack up his old studio and move things to his new studio. Then we went to a photo exhibit/competition where my husband won best portrait and then we had supper. It was a long day.

T-shirt: Club Monaco
Jeans: trapperjane.etsy.com
Shoes: Fluevog | Bass Minstrel Marian


Friday was a less busy day but I had a long nap in the afternoon so it was also a bit of a wasted day.

Every person should have a pair of cute, red flats in their wardrobe. I also have these in teal. Once I wore one of each as you can see in this photo. Not really an everyday look but fun for a photo shoot. The funny thing is that when we were taking these photos, our Premier was in the drug store at the same time. Technically he's my boss (at the highest level) but I'm pretty sure he's never met me.














Jetta is doing much better now but isn't quite out of the woods. She's eating more but she's also doing strange things like wanting to stand in sinks full of water but not drinking anything. We're spoiling her rotten too - anything to get her to gain weight.

New =)

 Coat- Zara

Just a short post to show some of my new buys (winter edition), I fell in love with these two coats when I saw them, they almost have that oversized blazer look to them, which I really love! And they're so versatile too, worn with tights, skinnies or even boyfriend jeans:) And my new slippers from Steve Madden are so funky with the skull detail, I love them! And finally this lovely snakeskin print clutch is perfect to liven up casual outfits!

 Brown coat- Cotton On

 Slippers-Steve Madden

 Clutch-Mr.Price

Have an amazing week everyone!!

Warm Colours

 Jersey & Dress- Mr.Price/ Shoes- Country Road

I am so in love with burgundy for winter, it's such a warm colour and so beautiful too! For this outfit I wore my new jersey from Mr.Price (It's a little bit darker in reality) I decided to layer it over my burgundy dress, and pair it with my tan pumps. I loved how it turned out, and it's definitely a look that I'm going to try a lot in winter, I love sweaters paired over dresses or skirts! 

Have a lovely weekend everyone!!

TGI Thursday

I have tomorrow off so I may have dressed more casually today than I should have because it felt like Friday.

Sweater: Danier via Value Village
T-shirt: Old Navy
Pants: Lilith from NYC
Shoes: Vivienne Westwood for Melissa

Everything is thrifted except for these pants which cost.... well I'm not going to tell you that but I think they were worth every penny. They have everything that I like about pants - mid-calf length, big pockets, wide legs. Irresistible!

Like I said above, I have the day off tomorrow but I'm probably going to end up spending the day helping my husband move stuff into his new photo studio. Hopefully I'll be able to sleep in a little bit.

Also got my hairs cut after work. My red is nice and bright again. A shout out to my peeps at Jay Wells to whom I showed my blog tonight. *waves*

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!

 Candy Coloured Nails

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".
