Daily Outfit: Riveting, Darling

Glasses: Firmoo | Anorak jacket: Pala Pala Boutique | Plaid button-front shirt: Van Heusen | Statement necklace: Francesca’s | Olive shirt c/o DownEast Basics | Skinny Pants: Gap | Cognac Boots: Corso Como at Nordstrom

The day I went to Rivet & Sway’s Pop Up Shop to try on swanky frames, this is what I wore. An anorak jacket has been on my wishlist forever and now that I have one in my closet, I can’t get enough.

So grateful for a husband who makes me laugh. And is willing to take my picture.

Daily Outfit: Happy Canada Day

What can I say? I bleed red. As a Canadian living in America, every Canada Day I feel it’s my responsibility to fly my flag through my clothes and wear red. That’s what Patriotism is all about, right?

Sunglasses – Nordstrom | Earrings – handcrafted by me | Red dress – Shabby Apple (also worn here and here) | Drape front cardigan – Nordstrom | Red belt – the modbod store | Gold watch – Fossil (similar) |

In other news, I got gum on my shoe during the shoe. At least it was red. And it made for some photos, so hey! We roll with it.

Also, Canada Day was July 1st. A belated happy birthday post to my true north strong and free.

Daily Outfit: Wear Something that Scares You

For Freckles in April‘s 10th day in the Winter Challenge, she challenged us to wear something that scares you. It took me a long time to figure out something that freaked me out in my closet but this is what I came up with:

I’m scared of wearing:

  • white pants for fear they’re going to get stained
  • the same thing two days in a row
  • precious pieces of jewelry
  • overly tailored jackets because it makes me look too corporate
  • high heels because of what they do to my ankles

Today I threw caution to the wind and wore all of these things.

Outfit Breakdown

  • Rust blazer – thrifted
  • Multi-strand necklace – gift from Grandma
  • Paisley tunic, transformed into a tube top – Nordstrom Rack (I wore this yesterday, but differently)
  • Nude layering tee – modbod
  • Braided belt – F21
  • Watch – fossil
  • Bracelet – Annie M. Jewelry
  • Nail polish – Deborah Lippmann @ Nordstrom
  • White pants – Gap
  • Nude heels – some shoe store I can’t recall

One thing I am not scared of is orange. It’s my favorite color and wearing it gave me courage so wear all these other things that scare me.

Fill in the blank: Wearing ________ scares me.
