Take A Look At Yourself

Okay, so I know it’s not great blogger form to take your photos in the mirror BUT my hair looked so good in the morning with it’s natural curls that I thought I’d better quickly take some photos before the wind deflated them (see below).

I’m smiling, but my hair isn’t. Wind is so cruel.
And say hello to my blur of cat Felix. 

Dress- Suzy Shier
Pleather Jacket & Scarf- via Fairweather
Accessories-Thrifted

I was pretty happy with this outfit, I feel like it looks really put together but office appropriate (even though most of the people in my office wear jeans and sweatshirts). 

Anyway, I promise better photos tomorrow.

much love.

P.S. if you know where my title of my post is from you will win….MY Admiration and Respect. 

Menswear Monday

As promised the weather is on our side now so I am back doing menswear Mondays! Which is all thanks to my lovely Hubster who makes the best model in my opinion and is very patient to do this for me. 

Jeans-Old Navy
Sweater- Mark’s Work Wearhouse
T-shirt- Haines
Leather Jacket- For Him U.K.
Sunnies- H&M

What I love about this outfit is that it’s got a bit of edge due to the leather jacket and aviators, but the jeans and scarf make a little softer, more casual. And the hat completes the look. It just seems so effortlessly cool to me, like a little bit James Dean.

Well, I hope you guys all enjoy the return of menswear Monday! 

much love. 

Wishful Dressing

This is my I-Wish-It-Was-Spring outfit. Even though I love where I am living right now, like I love it. This place is so magical. However, the last couple of days I have been longing for warmer days. So, it has been a little bit warmer (-8 degrees) the last couple of days so I have been wishful dressing like it was a lot warmer. I should probably cut it out before I get sick… 

Dress H&M, Boots Gifted, Leather Jacket Thrifted, Bag Aldo, Sunglasses Old Navy, Belt Vintage, Infinity Scarf Joe Fresh (for $2!!) 

Before I go I must gush about how much I love this scarf. Seriously, it’s so big and plushy, it keeps me so warm and makes an excellent hood too. 

And I should mention how much fun Minigo and I had outside in the snow. 

Hope y’all had an excellent day.

much love. 

The Outsiders

 Hello Dear Friends! I am happy to be finally doing a real outfit post. It feels like it has been forever since I have gone out and really documented an outfit. I am going to try to document as many outfits outside as possible until the snow comes in about a month.

The jersey dress is Old Navy, blazer is thrifted, belt is Le chateau and the sunglasses are Old Navy.

I felt very urban chic in this outfit, and I felt very out of place wearing it. This town is a vortex for good style sense. Everyone here, even people who just moved here  are all dressed in jeans and hoodies. I have never seen anything like it, from toddlers to the elderly they are all wearing the same thing. I mean, I don’t care, where what you like, but it’s hard to believe that everyone in this town likes to wear the same thing. But I do care that everyone in this town stares, points and whispers about me. It is a little frustrating. But I am going to keep wearing what I feel best in.

I am not the only one who stands out here, my Hubster also sticks out like a sore thumb. He was wearing a tie the other day and a kid came up to him pointed to the tie and asked “What’s that?”. Very strange and very funny and very cute.

Here he is looking like the perfect outsider in a Joe baseball shirt, For Him U.K. leather jacket, Old navy jeans and sunglasses.

Do you guys ever feel pressure to dress down in a jeans and t-shirt world? How did you deal with it?

much love.
