Some new items

Ok, it's been WAY too long ang yes, I've bought a few "items" in the past few months. But lawd hep me, I'm lazee and it takes a long time to put on clothes, take pics, download pics, write blog and upload pics.So sue me.

Here are, in no particular order:

1. An outfit I call "secretary sexy" I bought this week. It was on supa-sale and I love love love the skirt, which has POCKETS!

2. The dress I bought for a work party that may or may not include celebrities such as : Corey Haim - oh la la

3. The belt my mother is proud to have handed over to me, from her original 80s collection. Cuddles said, "it's actually cool" in a very surprised way. To be honest, I was just as suprised to suddenly like this belt. I've seen it for decades in my mom's closet and never paid any attention.

4. The spur-of-the-moment jacket. I don't usually buy anything spur of the moment, but this caught my eye. It def looks better in person, and the "fur" is removable and I wil remove it. It's really warm and I love it, so don't burst my bubble! Also, it has brown corderoy patches on the elbows! Heart! It's a bit of a throw back style, with a modern edge.

can i tuck?

So the high waist is slowly coming back. What do you think of this look with the "tuck"? Can I get away with it? Or stick with untucked, which I think looks a little messy.

Black or White or Nada?!

Dilemma time again. Two pairs of shoes. Can only keep one. What do you think? I couldn't decide in the store so I got them both, but now trying them on at home I'm not sure I like either. I like the white color and the little heel but don't like the toe part. I like the black toe part but I think I need a heel?! HELP!!!!

Am I too Old for this top?

The person who I was shopping with - seemed to think this top was not age appropriate for a 30 something year old woman. I disagreed but did not buy it. I did, however, use the "Dressing Room Cam" to take a photo and get a second opinion! Any thoughts?

What's wrong with this outfit?

Is it the shoes? the tights? the undershirt? Can I leave my house looking like this?

Another Jewish Holiday, another post revolving around socks!

My husband thinks this is a totally inappropriate use of sock wearing. He thinks I should be embarassed to leave the house like this, let alone travel to another country. This is my "travel outfit" I don't like going barefoot to the airport because you have to take your shoes off to go through security.

















Is this passable or should I rethink my travel outfit?

The Present

I am not sure which is scarier.

1. That Cuddles' mom saw this shirt and bought it immdiately thinking "this is SO HICK!"

2. That this shirt was designed, colour chosen and approved for manufacture

3. That I might have to wear it one day... is one expected to wear gifts in front of the sender?

Cuddles' comment was "how soon can you get it to the Salvation Army"?

Here is the shirt witha close-up on the feathery detail, which, I may add, it quite itchy when touching skin.
