What I'm Wearing

-

I wore this about 3 weeks ago out on a date with Hugh and another couple. It was still too cold for me to think of wearing anything other than boots. The pants are from the Gap and are fairly high waisted, which I love. The sweater is from the Gap Outlet ($17) and the white tee is from Costco. I got the scarf in the fall and can't remember where from. Watch and necklace are from Ali Express. 

Parent Teacher Interviews started on St. Patrick's Day. At my new school they start at 4:30 pm, so unable to come home and change I had to get creative with my outfit. Jeans (Gap), Shirt (Ricki's) and Shoes (Nine West) are old. I recently got the navy blazer at Winners and the necklace is Ali Express. I LOVED this outfit and will definitely be recreating it this spring.

Parent Teacher Interview #2. Pants (Vero Moda), Blazer (The Bay), Shoes (Franco Sarto) are old. Button up or down? is from the Gap and necklace is Ali Express.
This is an outfit I put together to join The Blended Blog in their Style Perspectives - Bright Pants. These pants aren't that bright, but they are colored denim and in case you didn't catch it in my first photo, I love them. It is end of March, so it is still cool here. It was a cloudy and overcast day with a chance of rain, so instead of the flats I through on my rubbers. The sweatshirt is from Costco and the coat is Bench.

 I am looking forward to switching things up with some more spring-like fashion. I recently put all my sweaters and cords away and picked up a couple bright cardigans like the grey one in the first outfit. Things on my want list for spring are lace up flats, a denim dress, a dark jean jacket, and some fun bright jeans. I ordered A LOT of stuff from Simons last week, so I can't wait to give it a go! The item(s) I'm most interested in are THESE pants recommended by none other than Deena. I ordered them in 4 different colors to see what I like best! Remember over $100 ships free from Simons and you just drop in the mail with the shipping on them to return.

Happy Wednesday!

    You look so good in all of these! I absolutely love the red blazer and was really debating getting one when we did Lisa's challenge this winter. Tell me more about the high waisted jeans from the Gap, cut???? I need jeans that keep everything tucked in and less muffin top! Please post everything you keep from Simons so I can get inspired, even though I am really trying to save money for London.

      I actually wore them to school again today. They were dirty before I arrived. Not sure if they are suited for not-so-careful-Jordan, but I definitely like the look.

Calder missed nailing our baby's arrival by 4 hours. Boone James Hamilton was born at 3:59 this morning. Boone is doing well. We got back some positive test results today and will hopefully get the remaining few tomorrow. He gets to spend the night with us and at this point that is all we can ask!

Another embarassing one

On Tuesday, I had this brilliant post formulated in my head. Then just before supper the power went out. Although the internet went down with the power, I still could have just written it on the computer to publish in the morning. Instead, I took full advantage of a sick child (who slept on the couch most of the evening) and a husband who was in the city (at his Grade 8's Farewell). I read. And also did some texting. But mostly I read (There was a moment that I thought I should conserve the power on my cell phone in case it the power took its sweet time coming on, but it was short lived. I figured that I could always go charge it in the van. Hugh was glad that it didn't get to that. He pictured me not getting the garage door open (I would have had to have manually open since there wasn't any power). Then he pictured me sitting in the van dying of carbon monoxide poisoning. I wish he would have given me a little more credit when this elaborate daydream was running t...

Guest Post Luke: Men at Ikea

     I've recently been blessed with 2 trips to Ikea in the last 3 months, and with a lot of time on my hands while in Ikea I came to notice a few similarities in all the men walking around there.   As I was taking notes on every man I saw, and mostly myself , I came up with different types of guys and what their role was with their significant other.          The first guy, who I believe to be the most common, is "The Turn Back Man".  This man believes that, just like in racing, if he stays in front of his significant other he can use drafting to increase her speed and keep her on track.  This never works and he subsequently becomes the "Turn Back Man".  He is constantly 4 steps ahead and turning back over and over when SHE sees something else they "might" need.  It is tough, because when entering Ikea men want to do as little walking as possible, but this has us taking even more steps. It is the slight chance that ...
