Hi everyone, happy Thursday!

Today I'm participating in Tara's "Wear to Work Link-Up" so head on over to her site to check out all the other great entries and get some fresh ideas for daily work dressing!

I'm Repeating Myselft, Aren't I?

(Dress by Forever 21, Belt by H&M, Shoes & Bracelet by Aldo) 

I feel like I say this every time I wear this dress, but if you look closely, it has a cute orange polka dot pattern on it that you might not notice at first.
Anyways, on to more exciting news:  I met Bryan Cranston today!
I've never met a celebrity before, and I love Breaking Bad, so I was feeling a little starstruck.  Apparently he is in town filming a movie (a quick Google search told me it's a Godzilla remake) and he just stopped into the gallery to check out the art.  He's super nice, in case you were wondering :)

Inverse - Purple Dress, Black Topper

(Cardigan by Zara, Dress by Gap (outlet), Sandals by Aldo, Necklace by Tiffany & Co.) 

Does this outfit look familiar?
Well, it should because I wore basically the inverse of it just last week!

Thankfully, this weekend went exactly as planned.  Meaning, we had no plans ... 
I had a mini freak out on Thursday night - as we were getting ready for bed T confirmed that his friend (and his friend's wife) were coming to visit for the weekend ... which I had completely forgotten about!  Normally I love having guests, but I need some time to mentally prepare for entertaining.  And I had already mentally prepared for not doing anything on the weekend, and was really looking forward to it!  Long story short, they didn't end up coming and I got the relaxing weekend I wanted, and they are now coming this weekend so I have a whole week to prepare!

Grey and Red

(Top & Pants by H&M, Sandals & Necklace by Aldo) 

Hi everyone!  What exciting plans do you have for the weekend?
We don't have any, I am working tomorrow and will probably just want to hang out at home and relax on Sunday.  Both T & I's Mums live out of town so we don't have any Mother's Day duties to attend to, though I love any excuse for brunch!

Thoughts on the Met Gala

 (Cardigan by Gap, Dress by Banana Republic (outlet), Sandals & Necklace by Aldo)

Normally I don't post about red-carpet fashion but this year's Met Gala definitely had some themes that I wasn't digging.  To be fair, the theme of the evening and exhibition was Punk: Chaos to Couture.  But I felt like too many celebs (or their stylists) took a too-literal (hello, studs) or too-goth (hello, major dark lipstick) take on the whole thing.
Also, everyone was just way too tanned.

Check out all the looks here.

This weekend was so beautiful in Vancouver.  Everyone was out and about, I can tell that all of us Vancouverites are now thinking that summer has started.  Unfortunately that is rarely the case when we get one nice weekend so early on in the season.  However, one is better than none and we sure took advantage of it!

Hope you had a great one too!
