Rawr!

I don't know what ever encouraged me to buy this ridiculous shirt but even though it's so voluminous and slighty "Middle-Aged Texan Socialite" I still have fun wearing it. There's something about wearing several different kinds of animal print that makes me happy. I was wearing this, too, the day when I managed to buy a tiger striped suitcase for less than 40 dollars. Winning!

Shirt: Costco

Skirt: Winners

Shoes: Victoria's Secret



I can't wait until it gets colder so I can wear this with my pink leopard tights. With a shirt underneath! You can't really tell in the photo (or can you?) but this sucker is sheer and I was only wearing a bra underneath. Scandalised the children, but you can't win them all.

Dude Looks Like a Lady

Every once in a while I get dressed and think, "Ha! You look like an adult!". Then I feel like a fraud, like the packaging is playing tricks on people which causes me to berate myself for having conversations with my own brain. I wasn't even going anywhere at all, just to the grocery store and to pick up the kids from school. Ooh, and the post office, but that's all.

Silk blouse with princess sleeves: Thrifted $1

Skirt: Winners $8

Boots: Aldo $60

Necklace: Old Navy $2

Earrings: Vintage: Mommed $0

Ring: Gifted

Trouser Socks: I knew I should have dug for the black ones! Pretend you don't see them!



It was warm enough for bare legs this day, and I thought I'd best show them before they get full of bruises from roller derby. It has since snowed again, making me dig out not only the tights but the leggings too. One good thing about Canada is that Easter is a four day affair, so I won't be posting again until the following Tuesday, if I even get dressed at all! Yoga pants are calling my name.

This is my "church outfit" from the previous post, just reworked for my shopping and errands that I had to do in the later part of Sunday afternoon.

Scarf: Ardene

Shirt: Joe

Skirt: Winners

Tights: Old Navy

Boots: Doc Martens

Ring: Vintage



I loved this colour combination when I saw this scarf hanging on my coat rack next to a silk bag which is the same colour as my tights. I wanted to replicate it, but there's still enough black to keep me happy! I wore this with my grey moto and the silk bag in question, though I don't have the photographic evidence so you'll have to trust me on that one.

Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

Here I am, dressed for church and trying to appear demure.

Tights, shirt, blazer: Old Navy

Skirt: Winners

Cami: La Senza

Shoes: Guess

Ring: Vintage


I've had this shirt for five years and it's my first time wearing it. I should have taken a picture of the sleeves! The sleeves are cute; maybe next time? After church I had errands and shopping to do, so I changed part of my outfit, which I will post tomorrow.



That's all,
