Outfit deets: 
* Coupe top.
* Smart Set pants (new!).
* Iro Saika heels which you've seen with overalls.
* Accessories: Auslini bangle & Gucci shades.

I was seriously uncertain about the slouchy / soft pant trend and couldn't see myself wearing them after a couple failed attempts with the shorts version.  Well, never say never because apparently you just have to find the right pair!  Even as I slipped these on this morning, I was unsure but within minutes of walking into work I was sold; pajama-like pants that are business-ready?  Yes, yes and yes.

I did find these stretched out a bit during the day so if I can offer a bit of advice, pair these with a hi-low hemline so you can hike up the back of the pants to keep them looking fitted, and tuck the front of your shirt in.  On top of that, if these don't flatter your behind, the longer top will hide that.  I could also see myself pairing these with a more fitted top and a blazer.

On Friday I got a little surprise in the mail:  new glasses from Clearly Contacts.  I'm a Style Ambassador for the brand and I guess surprise glasses are a perk of the gig!  Cute.


Outfit deets:  F21 tank, Kyoden sports bra, 90 degree leggings & Nike Free 3.0 v5
Friday night I hit the gym with Marco but was terribly grumpy #keepinitreal.

See all my 'in action' workout photos in my Instagram album called #acowerkout

Now that I'm settled in from moving, I've been going through my closet.  I have listed several items I'm selling on my Facebook page so click over if you'd like to see.  Almost everything is under $30.

If you see anything that strikes your fancy, shoot me an email at acoest1984@gmail.com


The newest member of the shoe collection, Iro Saika, makes a quick leap into first place.  I know I already showed you these in an outfit post earlier this week, but wanted to give you the low down on how I scored these babies.

More after the jump (+ photos)...
Outfit deets:
* Premise blazer which you've seen in the fitting room when I purchased it
* Zara top which you've seen with white pants.
* Zara pants (new!).
* Accessories: Foster Grant sunnies, Suzy Shier necklace, Swarovski bangle & gifted chain bracelet.

I walked out of the store without these floral trousers from Zara and turned around and went back in to purchase them.  Clearly something changed on the walk out.  Although I'm mainly loving neutrals lately, when I do add colour I tend to like to add it on the bottom (shoes fall into this category for sure).  I could also see myself pairing this with a pink-red top or white top with nude heels.
