Like sleeves and pockets and knee length! So hard to find in a dress to make it appropriate for work on it's own! I will definitely miss eShakti.
I have been staring at the pattern and it's sometimes "blue four leaf clovers" but at other times "white stars" :) will amuse me on call tonight, probably!
Have a lovely day!

Especially when it comes to second hand shopping! I haven't worn this for a really long time and I remember buying it to modify.
In this brand I am usually a 2 or a 4, but I thought the pattern was cute so I purchased it for a song. The consignment store woman said no one could fit this dress.
No wonder! Tried it on recently (No Buy July you know!) and it fits!
Guess what it's labelled as? A 10. There is no way someone sized 10 would fit this dress. Uh uh. It's not even that stretchy.
Yay!! Less work for me! :) I think Carol Middleton wore a similar pattern recently. Ugh. She's younger than MY mom though!

I am going to win out!!! A lot of troubles with this dress when I was on call that I never had before: red welts on my arms from tight arm holes and a feeling of too stretched in the front.
Out of my closet and into someone else's life!!!

Just wanted to post some quick snaps of a dress I had been YLF gifted! Some lovely people were able to get an eShakti order with my coupon code for $35 off and I got a $10 thank you! I hope everyone had a good experience and this is what I ended up getting for myself thanks to your generosity (you guys know who you are!!! Love!)
And there are pockets!!!!
For my lovely eShakti people this is the end of that store for me: they are no longer shipping to Canada. It makes me quite sad, even though the duties are crazy, it was nice to have a source of clothes you know for sure will fit you.
More raving:
It's thankfully cut to my measure and not leaving marks on my arms like some other of my dresses with sleeves! It actually works backwards as well, I put it on initially backwards this morning (Friday, Sunday call people!)
You'll note there is no belt and no cardigan today!! :)
Do you think I could bookend with dark grey pumps? Black?

I got this dotty dress awhile ago but never ended up wearing it because ... I don't remember why even!
So, out to play on an a call night! It even has pockets!

A favorite for keeping cool (and covered) during the heat of the summer!
I do have a cardigan for work because it can get pretty cold! We did have a huge power failure last night, so the A/C may have been slightly throttled!
Only complaint: no pockets!!!

Out for a BBQ!

It's past the time of the spring and early summer I can wear my brown leather jacket, so it's probably safe to swap bags! Good thing I have more than one Kate Spade, eh?
A bit of a FFBO this morning for back to work: don't want to try anything too adventurous just on case!
It's going to get piping hot today! 30 C! Keep up those fluids!!

I wish I could post little Vine videos because this skirt is so fun in motion! It's Canada Day, of course, so a touch of red and white is mandatory!
I love the floof of this tulle skirt and I think if plays nicely with the snake print pumps (very not Canadian!)
I think I will bring this skirt out to play more!

I was reading Angie's top ten style tips and I thought I should go back and make sure that I was making a reasonable attempt and some if not all of them.
I had a professional bra fitting (what fun) and of course I was wearing the wrong size! By two cups and about 4 inches! Well, that explains a lot of the issues I had been having!
I thought about doing something about my hair too. I really dislike the center part, and my hair has always sprouted that way. I tried to mess with it a bit in above pics. Better?
And new glasses are on their way! I managed to find an eyeliner too: mascara is too out there and crazy for me I think!
There. I think that is enough change for one day!!
