Foolish Games

Foolish Games- Jewel

I wanted to wear a girly dress today and naturally also put on some dainty heels. But then I looked at what I needed to accomplish in the day and decided that I needed more of a kick butt attitude in my outfit. So the big, tough boots came on. I always feel like I can take on the world when I wear these guys, and want to do things that are out of character for me, like driving a motorcycle, becoming a secret assassin and not paying a bill on time! Rarr!

Floral Dress: BB Dakota

Navy Blazer: RW and Co

Black Equestrian Boots: Sister

Black Ribbed Tights: Smart Set

Band Watch: Guess

Heart Pendant: Le Chateau

I have to point out the lone pansy in my (very messy) garden. Look at her, she's been snowed on, frosted, parched and she's now completely alone... but she's still there! And she's gorgeous. I love when things happen against all odds.

I Am Over It

I Am Over It- The Dandy Warhols

Some days you just need to put on your girliest skirt and twirl around. I honestly don't remember what day this week I wore this (...Thursday??) but most of this week I've felt this way. It's been a long week. 

That's not necessarily a bad thing, I've been learning a lot and dealing with some loose ends, but it doesn't leave a lot of time to relax and unwind. I think I might head up to my lake on Sunday to escape a bit and de-stress. There's nothing better to me than sitting on the docks of my lake with a good book and a coffee of some sort (mmm... chai latte...).

Skirt- Urban Outfitters

Chambray Shirt- American Eagle

Tank- Forever 21

Shoes- Anne Klein via Value Village

Heart Necklace- Le Chateau

Lets keep this short and sweet (I'm off to hunt down a chai latte now)!
Hope everyone has an awesome weekend!

Learning to Fly

Wow, you have to love a lazy Saturday! I'm used to having a huge list of "Things To Do" that I woke up this morning and was all ready to tackle it when I realised that there really wasn't much to do (except for a long over-due oil change...but that can wait a bit longer, right?). So I've had a very nice day lounging around, finishing last night's chips and dip, having one too many cups of tea and working on the finishing touches of my business plan.





However, I did drag myself up to get dressed. I'm not really used to not having a work dress code...but I'm kinda liking it! Now I look in my wardrobe and think about my mood and who I want to be that day. Today it was girly and fun, hence the purple swing dress with roses! It feels almost like cheating because it's so comfy though!




Jacket: Thrifted
Dress: Le Chateau
Tights: Joe
Boots: Aldo
Scarf: Ralph Lauren
Ring: ?? (this is also my punk ring, which my friends seem to find hilarious as I have zero ounces of punk in me! I love the ring though!)
Cuff: Aldo Accessories




On a side note, I broke both my laptop and phone the other night. boo! I'm doing reno's to the basement in my house and conveniently dropped my phone in a can of blue paint. It looks pretty now, but I'm not holding out too much hope that it will last! The lap top is really what I'm sad about, it's my little macbook and I've had it since College. Luckily I had just backed it up, so things definitely could've been worse. Keep your fingers crossed that it will be ok!
