WiW: A Casual BBQ Party :)

Finally! Done R1 year and out and about to welcome the new R1 bunch into the warm company of our specialty! YAY! 

I went with something simple because last year one of my friends said it was really warm, so I could shed the jacket if I wanted.

Funny story - someone offered me $50 for the jacket today! :) She said she loved it and how it fit and she WANTED IT SO BAD. You'll notice I currently still own the jacket (I bought it for $11.40 from Forever 21's clearance section).

Hope this selection meets with your approval!

WiW: Militaryesque aka. Inspired by Rae!

Surprise arrived in the mail yesterday and I had almost given up hope this blazer would ever arrive! It has the cutest black and forest green plaid lining!!!

But the tall skinny lines reminded me of our dear Rae! :)

I am slightly unused to this style, but hopefully will be inspiration for many more cool outfits in the future!!!!

WiW: Debut of the Doggies!

Look what came in the mail! The long awaited doggy dress (Anthro, of course). Strapless, but has attachable straps which is always a bonus!!

I love the little doggies that are coming with me to class today (learning about hospital policy). I may just fall asleep in the back. Zz.

And there are pugs.

WiW: First Outing!! Anthro Many Folds

I just love the pattern on this shirt dress: it is origami! There are swans and bears and all sorts of interesting animals!!

And of course, my armour shoulder blazer is out to play again!!!

Hopefully my call won't be a zoo, though!! Haha!

I remember picking up this awesome blazer because of the pleated shoulder. :)

Is it still awesome enough to wear?

So, I went crazy... Anthro SemiAnnual Sale

Went with one of my utterly fab and fashionable friends, and we had a blast! Some items were a disappointment - such as the lusted after horizontal stripe skirt that looks FABULOUS on everyone looked TERRIBLE on me. Even the SA was speechless how terrible it was (very high waist, so I guess I"m short waisted? Because it came under my boobs and it was so terrible!) 

Anywhoo, made a good dent in my wallet! 

Also, their "small" belts are quite big - some of them (despite their cuteness) were no-goes because they'd just fall off my middle!

Unfortunately, my size was sold out of a lot of things, but that's why there's online ordering, right? Also, love that I can make returns, unlike a lot of online purchases :)

1. Songbird Dress: $37
2. Dots and Dahlias Chambray Top: $39
3. Belt: $19
4. Belt: $29
5. Afternoon Safari Pencil Skirt: $59
6. Winter Blossoms Bib Necklace: $39
7. Fetch and Frolic Dress: $79 - one left; size 6, grabbed anyway. :p
8. Atmospheric Hoops: $19
9. Ruled Pointe Tank: $39
10. Cheeka Pencil Skirt: $39
11. Path of Flight Earrings: $19
12. Islington Pencil Dress: $79
13. Gazette Corset Belt: $39
14. Ginger Gold Blouse: $49 (bah, now $29; not in my size)
15. Tassel Sash Belt: $29

On backorder:
16. Minerve Swing Dress: $39
17. Minerve Swing Dress: $39 
18. Dual Foundation Pencil Skirt: $29

If everything works out, it looks like I'm done shopping for awhile :) Also, it was hard to resist "deals" - but I think I stayed pretty true to my aesthetic, while wanting to experiment with a few things - chambray!

WiW: Orphan out to Play! Open or Close?

I bought this blazer at least a year ago and it has slightly more of a boxy feel than I prefer these days, but it is so cheerful! Red! Dots!!

Should I try to tailor it when I get home?

WiW: To Look like a "Teenager"

Ugh. One of the very helpful ward nurses thought I looked like a teen volunteer. Am I too twee? Ugh.

Also: I bought this blazer after Angie's post on the tweeds and thought this crop shape was ok. What do you guys think?
