“There’s something sacred about reading a blog post on someone else’s site. It’s like visiting a friend’s house for a quick meal ’round the breakfast table. It’s personal — you’re in their space, and the environment is uniquely suited for idea exchange and uninterrupted conversation. In many ways, we should be treating our blogs like our breakfast tables. Be welcoming & gracious when you host, and kind & respectful when visiting.” – Trent Walton

Oh TGIF, literally T. G. I. F.! I'm so pumped for the weekend; tonight will be a low key evening in and watching 'The Ides of March'. On Saturday I plan to check out the new Marshalls that just opened up in my city with a girlfriend and that night I'm attempting home-made thai food (rice wraps & pad thai, we'll see how that goes). Have a great weekend!
If my sewing skills suddenly improve, I'd love to try and make this.
Have you seen this slow motion ballet? Incredible.
Don't forget about Earth Hour on Saturday night.
Want to dye your hair 'Rihanna Red'? She shows you how to.
These boots are sweet and sassy (& cheap).
Have you ever consigned your clothes?
Side-note: I'm totally obsessed with Instagram, are you? If you use it, leave your user name below so I can find you. Mine is acoest1984.
Outfit details:
* Dynamite blazer (a personal fave), last seen with a ruffled pale pink dress, here with a geometric print dress & with skinny pants.
* Spense dress, picked this up in Florida at Ross and was part of my birthday gift from my parents.
* BCBG heels from TJ Maxx last year when I went to Florida. Last seen with white skinnies, here with grey denim, and my with my favourite ruffled skirt.
* Givenchy nude fishnet tights that I wear all. the. time. I found a handful at Winners and scooped them up as they are hard to find and since I've been wearing them for years, I need to replace them yearly.

* Vintage necklace, Pandora bracelet (with two new charms I received for my birthday: 'Journey' and my birthstone, 'Aquamarine,' similar), Dillards & F21 bangles.
I'm switching up how I list my outfit details, what do you think? Do we like it? LoveMaegan... does something similar and I really like how she lists what she previously wore with something and gives a visual before you even click the link. Thoughts?
So I wore this dress to work the other day, and while I got a ton of compliments and love the colour, I couldn't wait to rip it off when I got home. Too tight and too fussy! The following day was dubbed a 'flowy' day where I wore skinnies and a flowy top. Ah. To be able to breathe.
I know I said I had a purchase post coming soon on the loot I nabbed in Florida, plus a recap of my vacation, also I want to share the birthday gifts I received; I did not lie, it's just taking me a bit longer. Between going through all my photos, editing them, and (the worst) not having Internet (the connection I was pirating has now been locked. Damn!), I've been a little slow moving. But alas, I have a 'net connection now and will get those posts up very soon. Hope you are all having a great day!
