In the Swing Now!
Monday, June 13: The Clean Getaway (har!)
Still totally digging on this dress! It's comfortable, gives me shape, and is a classic piece I'll wear for years. I begrudgingly dug out the black boots because it rained allllll day. June is the new September, apparently. Oy vey. :( The cute bench I'm sitting on was my piano bench growing up.
- Wrap Dress: KS3408
- Necklace: Made by me
Tuesday, June 14: Colourblocked in Black and Grey
This isn't the most inspired outfit, but it was another rainy day, and I was grumpy about it. For colour, I popped on the big 'ol millefiori ring I picked up in Venice. I bought it when my fingers were all puffy from the flight over, so it only fits on my pointer finger now. It's a knucklebuster, but it makes me smile. The boatneck is made from wicking fabric, so it's nice and breathable -- perfect for (future) travel!

- Crops: Old Navy
- Ring: From trip to Italy, Fall 2010
- Belt: Thrifted
Wednesday, June 15: In the Jungle...
This sweet little top was originally the skirt of a maxi dress I made a few years ago. I'm digging the peplum effect to hide my hips! I had to pair it with a cardi, as (sigh) it's still cold here.
- Top: S2599
- Skirt: NY&Co.
- Cardi: Refashion from charity shop
- Necklace: From Italy trip, Fall 2010
Thursday, June 16: Casual Comfort
It was warmer today, but my office is freezing, so thought this sweater would be cute and comfy. Turns out, I was right! The crops are my travel cargos with both outer cargo pockets and inner hidden pockets (take THAT pickpockets!) They've got a toggle waist (for when you eat tooo much!) and are made from a dri-fit fabric that dries in less than 3 hours. They're totally indestructible. Love that!
- Sweater: B5386
- Necklace: Made by me
- Cargos: Linda McPhee "Drawstring Pants"
- Tank: NY&Co.
Friday, June 17: I'm a Superhero!
Or at least I'm wearing superhero colours! The knot top is made from the skirt of a dress I wadded last fall (yay for a refashion!) I'm not used to wearing such close-fitting tops, but my bff assures me that it looks good, so I'm going to choose to believe her. At least with the Ssssssnake top, I had some camouflage! LOL
