"Bare" with me: 12/30

Wednesday, February 16, 2011

I'm sorry to shock you with my ghastly white legs. I really wanted to wear my knees highs and converse today so you'll have to look past my knees and on to the goods. The weather was unexpectedly cold today so I decided to stay inside on this one. I don't think purple knees would have matched the outfit anyway. I thought I'd pull out the school girl look for you today and also sneak in a little something extra. Did you notice my wonderful new satchel purse? It is one of my vintage finds that will be available in my Etsy shop within the next 24hrs for you to have as your very own! How exciting! I'm in need of some inspiration for the 2nd half of this challenge so I'll be rummaging through editorials and Spring photo shoots today (and probably be left longing for Spring).

Cardigan: Costa Blanca (Thrifted)

Plaid button up: Joe Fresh

Purse: Vintage (will soon be in my Etsy shop)

Skirt: Jacob

Shoes: Converse

On a side note, I switched out my last piece that I hadn't worn in the mix yet. I don't know why I chose 2 black skirts in the first place, so I added this grey skirt instead. I'm a rule breaker, I'm sorry. Send me your love and leave a comment with some tips, or let me know how you are doing with your 30x30!

Seeing Red: 10/30

Monday, February 14, 2011

Happy Valentine's Day!
I got to go skiing with the BF for our Valentine's celebration on Saturday, and I was thankful that the temperature was above freezing so we could spend a full day on the slopes. I was exhausted by the end of the day and my body was so sore, but thankfully I didn't take any big spills, and came back in one piece. So, in the spirit of Valentine's day I thought I'd wear my red tights. I typically would have never worn these tights with these shoes, or a grey sweater with beige shoes... but I am pushing myself to take more risks and open myself up to new possibilities with my closet. What do you think? What risks have you taken while doing the 30x30 challenge?

Blouse: n/a (Thrifted)

Hope everyone is feeling the love today!

Hippie Chic: 9/30

Friday, February 11, 2011

I pulled out my favourite head scarf today to add a little hippie flavour to this outfit. This thing was my saving grace after a bad haircut mishap, so I thought I'd give it a little love and show it to the world. You like? I had to take these photos after work today and the sun was almost set, so sorry for the weird colouring. I can't wait to have my pro-star photographer back tomorrow aka the BF. I'm so happy it's the weekend. Friday's just rock my socks.
On an exciting note, I am now accepting sponsors! If you are interested in Sponsoring or Advertising on my blog please send me an email. You can read my Contact tab for more information. Hope you have a great weekend!

Ditched: 8/30

I debated whether or not to post this outfit cause I really am not a fan of how the leopard tank looks with this blue sweater, but I didn't want to leave my wonderful readers without a 30x30 post today. The sudden snowstorm made these pictures a little blurry, plus the fact that I was freezing and just wanted to get the heck off that hill! If you noticed, my boots are covered in snow, that's because at the bottom of that hill was a giant ditch! While running up the hill I sunk all the way through up to my knees. Good thing I had my knee high boots on and not my converse!
On a side note, I'm getting excited for Valentine's Day! Since I only see my bf on the weekend, we are 'celebrating' on Saturday. We're going skiing! Yay, I can't wait to be a snow bunny for a day. There's only one problem, I have no idea what to wear!? Any advice on what to wear for a day on the slopes?

In a Tizzy: 7/30

Wednesday, February 9, 2011

I was undoubtedly jealous of everyone at the blogger conference yesterday, and reading everyone's tweets about Joan Rivers really got me in a tizzy. If, by chance, there is anyone out there who would love to offer me some tickets for ANY NYFW show, I will graciously take the offer and hop on a plane ASAP.

On another note, I must apologize for the poor quality of these photos. I had to take them very quickly between getting home from work and heading off to the gym, and going outside in these ridiculous temperatures was not an option. Plus, I don't have my trusty photographer around, so it's just me and the self-timer doing our thing. I'm sorry for the rather boring ensemble today, it seems that my outerwear has more personality than my innerwear...? Yeah well I'm working on it. Any suggestions for my 30x30 would be greatly appreciated. Obviously I need the help because I'm starting to look a little boring again.
