Bullet


Bullet: Steel Train
Definitely one of the best weekends of the year! The wedding was gorgeous (congrats J and R!) and such a good time; a mini high school reunion but minus all the drama. And the remainder of the weekend was spent relaxing with friends, learning volleyball (hah!) and playing old school games! Now why aren't all weekends like that?? 


Getting back into the swing of things was hard yesterday, so it was early to bed to recuperate- instead of tackling the mountain of work I'd left on Friday with intentions to finish last night. That's what Tuesdays are for though!

Dress: Club Monaco
Shirt: American Eagle
Shoes: Franco Sarto
Necklace and Bangle: Le Chateau
Apricot: Yum! 
This is actually the dress I bought when I got my first real "grown-up" job, it's quite heavy and has this gorgeous retro flower print on it. I remember putting it on and just feeling like a classy business lady! I love it when clothes bring back happy memories and I can still muster up the same feeling when I slip this dress on now! 
Happy Tuesday!

Turnpike Ghost

Turnpike Ghost- Tegan and Sara (Steel Train cover) 
I found this little romper when I was in Montreal and it was instant love (or lust... I'm not sure as I'm still in the honeymoon stage). I was going to wear it to my friend's wedding this weekend (I swear its ecru/taupe... not as ivory as it appears here!) but I needed some interesting jewelry to wake it up and make it even less wedding-y and wasn't happy with anything in my current collection. So after a grueling pros and cons list I've decided to wear a different dress that I have accessories for and is nowhere near the colour white/ivory! Phew! 

That meant that I was free to wear this guy today though! Which made me very happy and also made me super productive (I fully believe in the correlation between loving your outfit and your productivity! Bosses take note!) I paired it with my handy thrifted blazer and just some wedges and a watch, keeping it simple and easy. 
 
Silk Romper: FCUK (Super Sale!) 
Blazer: Thrifted
Shoes: Aldo
Watch: Guess
Earrings: Vintage
I seem to be having the craziest most exhausting week (hence the major bags under my eyes here!) But I'm leaving for the lake soon for a weekend with friends and the above mentioned wedding, so my whining is done and I'm ready to relax, sit on a dock,celebrate and win some games of Uno! Bring on the weekend!
