Yay! I can finally fit in this skirt again! Teeheehee. I was definitely missing it from the rotation!
Mixed it up with my favorite owls for another call shift tonight. What fun... ;)
And dotty tights! Triple pattern!

Browsing through my WIW's I'm struggling to find any without toppers - I always have a topper with my outfits, and unfortunately, I find myself in need of appropriate professional attire without a topper :)
Is there anything I should be looking for when I wear sleeveless things? Underarm flab? Lack of underarm flab?
And the rules stipulate that spaghetti straps are no-no's - so, would that mean straps should be at least 1" thick? I don't think I have very many things that are spaghetti straps, anyway.
Thanks for your assistance :)
ETA - lol; the difference in muscle in my arm between picture #1 and #2 - about 4 months.

Aha! I had almost forgotten about my red-ish "picnic table cloth" dress! I had bought this for an event last summer that didn't end up happening, but I tried to winterized it for today!
I have been struggling with my blazers recently because my arms are getting bigger from workouts (and bonbons). The linings are leaving marks on my arms. Bah! :( only two fit right now. At least this one does!

I finally had some time last night to tailor this dress I had found on eBay; although it was a larger size, it was quite a steal and I am hoping that this fun houndstooth may be a more "grown up" version of the fun conversational prints I love - sometimes you have to look a little more grown up, right?
My rebellious side chose the purple tights though! Yeah! :D

So... there may be an occasion for me to wear a red dress coming up, as is the cultural norm. I don't really wear red in my closet and I've been subtly trying to sneak in a little bit more red to see what YLF would say about it.
I think most of the comments have been relatively positive, but red really isn't a colour I wear. I think it washes me out.
I'd imagine that asian people have a range of skin tones, but there are a bunch that have my colouring - if we're supposed to wear red to happy occasions but it just doesn't look good on us, what are we supposed to do?
Side Note: I had a "red dress" in my 2014 budget - I wanted to keep it under $100; but I found the Kate Spade Selita dress - and I have been stalking eBay for a long time for one, but at almost $670 CDN (http://www.neimanmarcus.com/en.....45280273/p), I didn't think I would be able to keep it under $100. Long story short - I found one for $45!!! IN MY SIZE. AHHHH! I am so excited for it to come! So pretty with tights and bare legs too. *drool*

Out for a few errands and coffee with a friend after a call shift! We are going to bake anatomically correct heart shaped cookies for valentine's day! More exciting for her, because her partner is a cardiologist.
This is definitely a more summery dress, but with Palm Springs on the mind, I definitely wanted to wear it today!
I feel it's a bit too booby for anything else besides coffee: bah.

I have a tendency to overpack my bags, so in order to overcome this, I tried to plan for my upcoming trip with specific articles of clothing I am going to wear on particular days.
I have also built in alternatives in case I get bored or the weather is yucky.
There aren't actually a lot of things I need to bring! I may bring two pairs of jeans, though.

I haven't worn this dress in a little bit! It usually is a challenge to layer or top up properly, but I decided to go with something a little cozy today. It is -31 C or so, says the radio this morning. Brr!
Another overnight shift for me coming up.
Sorry for being sparse on the forum.

Ah, the joys of coverage for other people's lack of planning ;p - oh well, can't be too bitter about it I suppose!
Just something really quick because I am tired. Ugh.
I will get a Latte!

I was so sad when I missed out on the blush and black lace Zara dress that Kate Middleton had, and was equally disappointed when that dress was so short that I couldn't wear it to work!
Thank goodness for Anthropologie! A similar fabrication with longer length cropped up this holiday season!
