Chipper

4.30.2012


(Blazer by Urban Outfitters, Sweater and Pants by H&M, Tank by Jacob, Shoes by Aldo, Necklace by Joe Fresh)   

Aaaaand it's Monday again!  I was surprisingly chipper this morning despite the pouring rain and the fact that I only had yesterday off to relax and recharge.  I guess I did a good job of it!
Here's hoping the rest of the week is just as good!

It's Friday it's time for sandals

4.27.2012

(Cardigan & Jeans by Gap, Top by H&M, Tank (underneath) by Jacob, Shoes & Necklace by Aldo, Headband no name) 

Happy Friday!
It's jeans day again at the gallery and the weather forecast calls for sun so I thought I would slip on a pair of sandals and show off  my new pedicure :)
The colour is more orange than I was hoping for (I wanted a bright coral) but that's okay, orange is fun too!

Oh, and this the the mint green top I recently purchased from H&M!

Don't be fooled

4.26.2012



(Cardigan & dress by H&M, Belt by F21, Shoes by Banana Republic (outlet)) 

Don't be fooled, it is not warm enough to be wearing this outfit.  However, I'm not going to be outside very much today so I figured I could pull it off.

Laundry & J.Crew

4.25.2012


(Cardigan by Zara, Top by Old Navy, Pants by Gap, Boots by Aldo, Necklace by F21, Ring by Tiffany & Co.) 

This Old Navy top accidentally got put in the dryer, and though still wearable, just doesn't fit the same.  Sad face.  Also sad face for all this rain we've been having.

On a happy note, J.Crew officially opened in Vancouver today!  It's on Robson St., where the Tommy Hilfiger used to be (I heard, don't know for sure that's the exact location!)  I don't own anything from J.Crew, partly because I would have had to go to the US to buy anything from there (well, they ship to Canada but that can be a hassle) and also I find their stuff really expensive for what it is.  Kind of like Anthropologie.  Having said that, I will definitely be checking them out and will perhaps occasionally treat myself to something off the sale rack.

Scale

Hello lovelies!
I used to start off the week really strong - dressing 'up', looking more professional - and then slowly sliding down the casual scale until Friday.  But lately, I've found myself grabbing leggings and tunics at the beginning of the week ... and not sliding up the professional scale as the week carries on.  Am I just feeling lazy ?  Is comfort taking over ?

What We Wore: Stripes Challenge

 Jessica from What I Wore posted a stripes challenge earlier this week, and here is my entry!  It's not a contest or anything, just picking your two favourite outfits that incorporate stripes!  My entry was late because I couldn't figure out how to put two photos together into one image 729px wide.  Sad, I know.  Hence the need for that photoshop workshop!  So, I don't know if she's going to include me, but be sure to check out her list of entries here.

A few things from H&M

4.19.2012

Belt $ 6.95
 Skirt $ 14.95

Hi lovelies!  My hairdryer is on the fritz so I spent about twice as long as usual trying to blow dry my hair this morning, resulting in no time for outfit pics ... my apologies!

I did manage to snap this one in my gym's locker room, however.



(Cardigan & belt by H&M, Skirt by Joe Fresh, Shoes by Urban Outfitters, Jewelry by Tiffany & Co. and Le Chateau)
 

Yesterday I picked up at few things at H&M while shopping downtown.  You will see that I am wearing the cardigan and belt today!  I also purchased a sleeveless mint green top but couldn't find an image of that online.  You will see it shortly in an outfit post I'm sure!

Early Morning

4.18.2012



(Sweater by Gap, Blouse by Talula, Jeans by 7 for all Mankind, Boots by Aldo) 

Hi everyone! I am up super early today to go to my photoshop workshop. It's a yucky rainy day so I'm not sad to be inside all day.  Plus, the workshop is downtown so I get to go shopping on my lunch break and when the class is over at 4:30. Yay!

Photoshop

Tomorrow I am taking an all day Photoshop workshop. Yay!  Actually, I hope it's really good and that I learn a lot and that it's not too boring.  Wish me luck!

Costco vs London Drugs

4.16.2012



(Dress by H&M, Tights by Aritzia, Boots by Le Chateau, Belt by Aldo, Necklace by F21)

 I hope you all had a great weekend!  I only had Sunday off unfortunately, but spent it wisely: sleeping in, watching TV and going to Costco.
So I've been needing a few more clothes hangers and was going to just pick up some cheapy plastic ones at the dollar store or Sally Ann or something when I went into London Drugs last week to pick up something else (body wash? cant remember!) & I was heading to the checkout when I saw packs of 10 black faux-velvet covered (aka non slippy) hangers on sale for $5.99 reduced from $12.99.  I thought it was such a great deal I immediately bought 2 packs.
Then, lo and behold, yesterday at Costco they had the exact same hangers ... 50 for $12.99!  Dammit!  I may just go back to Costco this week to buy them because eventually I do want to have all the hangers in my closet matching...

Anyone superstitious about Friday the 13th?  Not me!  I'm thinking/hoping everything will go smoothly today.  We are hanging a show that opens tomorrow so wish us luck!

Mrs. Draper

4.12.2012

(Shirt by Esprit, Skirt by H&M, Belt by Aldo, Shoes by Payless, Earrings by Spring, Headband by American Apparel)
  
So ... the weather was the opposite of yesterday and I got screwed re: photo taking!  Actually I didn't know it was raining when I got dressed this morning, otherwise I would not have worn this outfit.  However, it got nicer as the day went on and we even got some sun.
This hairdo felt a like the new Mrs. Draper, Megan.  She's got a bob and often wears a headband :)

What colour are these pants ?

4.11.2012

(Cardigan by Gap, Blouse & Pants by H&M, Shoes by Urban Outfitters, Belt by Joe Fresh, Jewelry by Tiffany & Co.) 

The weather got really crappy this afternoon so I'm glad I snapped these pics in the morning sunlight!  These are new pants from H&M ... and I am having trouble determining what colour they are!  When I bought them, I thought they were hot pink.  In my closet they look orangey-red ?!  I was also not convinced that I had purchased the correct size as they are tiny bit baggy ... but the store was out of the smaller size so I figured for $17.95 I could rock the baggier look and/or attempt to shrink them in the dryer!  So far, they feel like they fit very nicely :)
