WiW 7.21 - A New Colour to the Party!

I think I picked up this cardigan in the spring because I needed to buy three for a special price. I had bought a navy and a pink and wanted to try a fun colour so I went with green!

It was in my not worn pile because I didn't think green went with anything. I hope green plays nicely today!

ETA: Party of life! YAY!

WiW 7.18 - The Problem With Saving

I recently came across this dress, tags still attached, in the back of my closet in the dressy dress section.

It was one of the very first dresses I bought for myself that was "nicer": the J Crew Big Shot Dot dress. I've hung onto it for at least three years and never worn it.

It's a bit snug to get into over the shoulders (hopefully looks ok!) and I was really worried I would not fit and never get to wear it!! So wear it when it fits!!! Don't save for a rainy day!!

WiW 7.17 - Topper or Not?

Quick and simple question today!

Excuse my storage closet and camping gear! The door fell off it's hinges and the repairman (aka dad) isn't going to be around for a bit!

WiW 7.16 - As inspired by one year ago! 1/5

Last year's combo was a navy tshirt, wood beads necklace with the same skirt and nude pumps!

I have no patients today but just shoving around some paperwork, so no denim jacket but can go sleeveless! I went with a similar pump, the same skirt and the "wood" element in the earrings!

Stay tuned for tomorrow! :)

WiW 7.15 - Pink and Twirly Dots!

Another selection from the Cotton Capsule! This twirly number has pockets for my pens and a belt for my pager today!

It is fun to style things without an extra layer over top, but a challenge as well to create structure or to make sure things aren't too dressy!

Thought I would try to ground things with sandals instead of pumps. Maybe that would have been too fussy?

WiW 7.14 - Keeping It Cool...

... Because it is a week of 30C!! Thank goodness for air conditioning! :) It will be all cottony frocks this week, though, but I don't mind because my cotton frock capsule (haha) is in good shape!

To start off the week will be a monochromatic ensemble... I thought of a pop of colour with brighter heels, but pattern match in the same colour family is as about as much some people at work can probably handle!

I do have a cardigan in my bag in case it is The Iron Grip of Winter at work! :)

WiW 7.12 - Slouchy!

I need to stand up straighter! I think my excuse is that I was pretty tired and grumpy that morning.

I really am fond of this dress but the lining is starting to split at the seams. I have only had it for one year and at Anthro prices you'd want something you like to last a bit longer!!

Maybe it's a sign I'm a bit pudgy. Grr.

WiW 7.13 - Simple and Easy :) And Washi Tape!

These days I have been trying to take it a bit easy with the fashion end of things. I have been spending some time with my paper arts instead!

My sister thinks I have "enough" washi tape. I have no idea what that means! :)

WiW 7.11 - Alternating: dark light dark light dark!

Teeheehee.

Another warm day here ... I had some pics of my work outfit too, but I'll try to locate them. For now, after hours is my favourite summer flowery dress to get a few groceries. The lady at the grocery store wanted to talk to me about dresses and what they mean - it was incredibly lovely to talk to her, although my sister said I started to use my therapy voice to talk to her!

Tried to go for a high contrast today, as my shoes of light-contrast made me a little blister-y in my feet, so I had to wear my comfy flats. It's kind of a dark-light-dark-light-dark situation ... and I think I sort of like it :)

And I have the weekend off!
