green is the colour of envy

Don't you just love it when you find an old piece in your closet that you forgot you had and is now back in style? I purchased this bright green tee at H&M over 5 years ago and could never bear to part with it because...you never know. Well, now you know! Brights are back and bigger than ever. It pays to be a clothes hoarder sometimes :)
This lovely camel blazer is a recent thrift find of mine...$7.99. Perfect!

mrs. dress up

4.02.2011

It feels great to dress up once in a while. My staple outfit nowadays has been sweat pants, tank tops, and sweatshirts. Why dress up when you're just gonna get spit up on you anyway? And the only time I've been leaving the house is to go to the gym, and that just brings us back to sweat pants, tank tops, and sweatshirts.
Today however I went shopping with my sister and mom for my maid of honour dress for my sister's wedding. After trying on, oh...40 dresses!, I finally found the one. My sister had pretty strict criterias which is why it took quite a bit of sampling before finding the jewel. Royal blue, satin or taffeta, and a little bit of bling. Problem, I'm not much of a bling kind of person, not all dresses come in royal blue and I would've preferred chiffon. But...I'm not the bride. In the end, I found a royal blue satin dress with minimal bling and a cut that I favour. I can't wait to show you guys. September will be it's debut. One word...deep V back. WOW!!!
I'm curious to know you're bridesmaid or maid of honour horror stories and dresses. SHARE!!
In the meantime, here's my dress up shopping outfit. Love the salmon colour of this gorgeous blouse. Thank you to Justyna from Chicshop for sending me this beautiful shirt along with a stunning pleated skirt which you will be seeing shortly.
FYI, stay updated on my blog as a giveaway to Chicshop is coming soon :)




Oldies but goodies. I will never get fed up of these babies.

Plié, Chassé, Relevé

4.01.2011

Ok, so I finally saw the movie Black Swan last night. Yeah I know, where have I been right? Any who, I am now currently obsessed with bringing back the ballerina in me. I did ballet when I was younger. Much much much younger, therefore I didn't get anywhere near the hard stuff or good stuff. I would love to take an adult beginner course. Not only will it help with my posture and flexibility, but it's a great and fun way to get myself into shape.
Gotta start doing some research on schools in my area that offer such a course.
