Isn't the top picture so cool? There was a bus zooming by and the camera caught it.
Do you guys have casual Friday at work? We do, and every Friday is like the candy day of the week because I get to put together an outfit with jeans. All week long it's pencil skirts, dresses and other more business-y stuff, but Friday, Friday is the day to let loose (well, not that loose) and be creative with denim. And this is what happens. The pressure gets to me, I try on six pairs of different jeans before deciding I cannot choose what to do with them and I put on something that would work just as equally from Monday to Thursday. What is wrong with me!?

Annnd this is what happens when you put the camera on your car's spoiler with the
vehicle still running (so I could jump back in at a moment's notice because it was cold). Awesome.

Wanna hear a story? It's about my scarf. So, many years ago (at least five) I was shopping at Club Monaco and that location was closing (read: lots of sales). I tried on several things but didn't find much (I'm sure Amanda circa 2011 would have found much more than Amanda circa 2006) except a pair of navy wool crop skinny pants (which still have yet to be worn - unreal, I know). As I was getting ready to check out, I decided to check out the accessories. On a table were these scarves in grey and black. 100% cashmere. What is cashmere? (Yes, those were my thoughts back then). I almost didn't buy it but finally decided to drop the $9 and pick one up. Yes. Nine dollars. Down from one hundred dollars. I should have bought five. But then again, what the hell do I need five cashmere scarves for (except to be the most amazing gift giver ever).

Look everyone! It's my St. Patrick's Day outfit... Yeah, turns out, I'm not so good with the whole you-have-to-wear-this-certain-colour-on-this-certain-day-of-the-year. I was rockin' a green belt with this outfit which I promptly removed upon arriving at work (that sounds familiar). Then I was badgered with the, 'Where's your green, Amanda?' all day long (mainly by people not wearing green, might I add).
I got these shoes during my trip to Florida and they are so fab (yes, tooting my own shoe horn right now, so?). They are super high, snug on the foot and they stay put when I'm running around work. The only problem? They kill my feet. Like so badly I told my sister I wanted to chop my feet off that day (her response? 'Um, or you could just take them off...' okay, smart-ass). They dig in mad right where my toes meet my foot (aka the toe cleavage area) so badly that when I removed them (and this was constantly throughout the day, while sitting at my desk, rest assured) I had a massive indentation of a line running across the tops of my toes. So sad. So painful. What a disappointment. Fortunately I only spent $16 on them (I love that Ross store, I tell ya) but it's sad to know I'll likely always choose a different shoe before them. Le sigh.
