I was really self-conscious in these. Super bold stripes is a bit much, even for me, but I adore them and wanted to make them work. Again, I got a tonne of compliments so that helps ease the “What am I doing I look like a moron” of it all. I do have a complaint about the WLC stockings. I’m a girl of ample thigh, and these just don’t have the stretch required to make that comfortable. I prefer my stocking with a sticky innard so that they don’t slip, but these seem to rely on strangulation alone. They are … Continue reading wear: Wednesday

My WLC order continues, with Yellow! These are super bright and really cute, which is going to make them hard to wear, I think. I dig the grey / black / yellow but am a bit worried about looking like a bumblebee in future pairings. Cute though they are, I don’t want to be one. Every time I wear my We Love Colours tights, no matter which, I get awesome compliments. I need to build a bigger collection!

I’m on a new schedule at work that means I have to be in the office at 9am. This probably doesn’t sound that bad to you, but for me it is absolute murder. I’m a sleeper. I likes to sleep. So, to prepare for my 9am wakeup, I went to bed at about 19h30. And woke up at 03h00. Dress, Old Navy Tights, We Love Colors Turquoise Shoes, F21 Brooch, My nan’s Continue reading wear: Monday

I spent Sunday with my dad, sister, aunt and nephew, and was comfy-casual all day long. My dad and aunt have been cleaning out my Nan’s stuff, and gifted me with two beautiful brooches. This is one. My weekend was pretty uneventful and quiet, we had some lovely weather, such that I didn’t really need a jacket with the cardi, as long as I had a light jersey scarf. I’m pretty okay with that. Wearing: MIXX jeans Old Navy tee Joe Fresh cardi Spring shoes Vintage brooch of my Nan’s Continue reading wear: Sunday

My We Love Colours order from BTR came in! I am so so so happy with the choices I made. On Friday, I went to company-mandated team-building bowling, which ended up being a bit fun. Don’t tell anyone. I was super colourful and glad to be on team light blue! I also achieved my highest ever bowling score: 74. Woooo! Wearing: Boyfriend’s Tee, a Robot (so full of compliments. another one to perma-borrow) Jacob Cardi Joe Fresh skirt WLC tights in Lavendar Pink Chucks Bracelets galore (via Lady Jane and Zellers) Team Spirit bandana Continue reading wear: Friday

I saw these in baby-blue at the American Urban Outfitters, and snatched them up. When I got to the cash, the nice lady pointed out there were black ones available nearby, so I got those instead. I love love love them! While I’m a bit worried they’re too saucy for the office, it didn’t occur to me until later, so I’ll just have to keep it in mind for next time. I felt awesome, though. I’ve been in the mood for glitter, so I carried my Betsey Bowtiful clutch, which I also adore. It’s one of my pricier bags, and … Continue reading wear: Thursday

The week is half over already! Yay! I’m wearing purple because I want so badly for it to be spring. So so badly. Purple, polka-dots, hearts and bows. What could make a body happier? Not much. Welly boots, Yellow Heart tights, Urban Outfitters AMERICA Purple dress, Zellers Cardi, H&M Heart necklace, Zellers Hair Bow, H&M Continue reading wear: Wednesday

These are some of my new American tights! They maybe look like I have some kind of mottled leg syndrome, but I think they’re a bit cute. After my super-relaxing weekend getting back to work is a bit tricky. I felt totally refreshed and rejuvinated, though, ready to take on the world! Which is good, because first days back are always busy. Dress, Zellers Cardi, Joe Fresh Tights, Urban Outfitters in AMERICA Shoes, Spring Lipstick, MAC Gaga2 Continue reading wear: Tuesday

Wearing jeans all the time makes it so that I don’t feel all that up to documenting my outfits. I’ll have to put a stop to it. I didn’t do photos all the long weekend, as I was away in the Vee Tee. It was so lovely! There were mountains and trees and rocks with dates all carved up in them and a kitty cat, and presents and the shops there are just better. I didn’t buy a lot (!!) but I did get things I love: tights from Urban, a ring, and Gaga2 for MAC. Friday, I again needed … Continue reading wear: Friday

Spring is a dreary time, it seems, and makes me want to wear naught but pants and sweaters and scarves and warm things. Thursday was wet, and it snowed for a while, and I was glad to be in my rubber boots and jeans. I went to talk about my problems, and then to sign a LEASE for my new house what I get in July! Huzzah! Not homeless! I wore: Joe Fresh jeans F21 plaid shirt GAP hoodie H&M tank polka-dot boots bad hair Continue reading wear: Thursday
