WiW: 9.30 - New boots finally came!

I ordered a pair of boots for fall in case my Doc Martens couldn't be fixed (luckily they could!) and I just have an extra pair! Can't complain about that, right? :)

I hope these pass, because I quite love them! I stuck in an extra gel pad and they wear well all day!

And my favorite navy dress is out to play! Love it!

9.28 - Still fit my high school clothes!!

Haha. My high school self usually wore sweats and t shirts, but I needed a dress for some reason!! I obviously found a reason to not go to whatever stuffy event it was because there were still tags on it!

We all need a navy neoprene dress, right?

Dressed it up for an overnight call because I thought the neoprene would bounce back nicely! (I was about 20 lbs smaller in high school for what it's worth)

What do you ladies think? :)

WiW 9.26 - Making Peace with my Arms

Sort of.

I have been trying to work out almost 4x a week for the last ten weeks or so and I do not know if I am happy or not with lack of results. I am rather unhappy with the shape of my arms and went with a blazer today. Struggled with a pic.

I met a patient with one arm today.

I think I am ok with mine! Phew! What a perspective change! Bring on a little flab :)

I will just give a lot of hugs!!!

Also - I am a style rebel as I'm wearing the "same thing" twice in a week - AHA! I actually ended up buying two of the same dress. Shhhhhh.... ;)

The Leather Trend ... at Work?

I have seen many professional ladies with beautiful leather blazers (one in a beautiful emerald green that had me follow her from one building to another - then realize I was in the wrong hallway - just because it was absolutely gorgeous!), but I don't think a leather blazer is really the way I want to wear the leather trend this fall.

I love leather (lol, let's be honest here - it'll be pleather) skirts, but at the same time I'm worried it's going to be too much for work. I am thinking of going with looser fits and longer lengths, and colours other than black.

I also found this skirt online (1/2) - it has just an accent of leather; do you think that will be a safe way to play with the trend without being like OMG LEATHER (3/4)?

PS: The length is going to be just above the knee or on the knee for me.

WiW: 9.22 - Midis that are toooo long!!

A quick run out for groceries: but this was an outfit I nearly had forgotten about, mostly because it was not exciting and the skirt is too long.

I want to chop it so I don't have to wear it so high up. Any ideas?

  • Cardigan: Ricki's
  • Top: Smart Set
  • Skirt: Dorothy Perkins
  • Belt: Burberry Vintage
  • Pump: Le Chateau
ETA: NO cutting for now, but I'll have to play with the proportions a bit :3 Thanks!

WiW: 9.24 - Rae Inspired Outerwear!

When I went shopping a few weeks ago, I was hoping to find something easy to throw on but still kept me warm: and this jacket was suggested to me. It is very much not my usual style, but it fell in love with the pretty olive colour and the structure is so Rae-esque that I decided to "keep without consultation" (haha)

I have a blazer to wear at work :3

Much love!

WiW: 9.23 - Simply, A Nut

To let y'all know I'm crazy! :3 crazy for this longer length dress I found in a B and M! And it's lined! And navy! And under $40?

I am tempted to get a second.

A rather quiet day anticipated, so didn't really opt for anything too exciting. We are getting temps of 7 or 8 Celsius in the morning, so I can really bring out the boots and the tights!

Love,
Lyn

WiW: 9.17 and 9.19 - Pom poms and Tutus

I'm starting to become more comfortable in this pom-pom sheath dress. I think that is a crowd favorite. I'm not still too sure about the shape. I suppose I will get used to it, especially since some one else who works with me has this dress, I need to train people to think that when they see it they think of it as mine as opposed to hers. Haha!!!

And the tutu was just a fun touch for dinner out with some friends!

I hope to meet with your approval!

Much love,

Lyn

WiW: 9.20 - Day off to see the doctor!

Yay, test results day but one of I fail it won't damage my academic career!!! :)

My lady doc is older and reminisces often about the days that going to see the doc was a special event so people would dress up. So, I went with a pencil skirt today!

Hope you all like!

Love,
Lyn
