Outfit of the Day

oct21Outfit of the Day:

ootd-oct21

It’s been about a month since I wrote anything under the fashion category, which is just usually outfits of the day. But I wanted to show people my outfit of the day for October 21. I personally thought that I was looking pretty stylish, until I went back and checked to see when the last time I did an “OOTD” post, and it was  basically the same outfit minus a different pair of pants. Fashion fail.

Clearly this outfit is a favorite of mine.

Earrings: Forever 21
Rings: I have no idea, I’ve had these for years. Most likely bought from Smart Set?
Scarf: $20 at Abercrombie
Cardigan: J. Crew (So in ♥ with this cardy)
White Tee: Long sleeved basic tee from Abercrombie (Winter 2008)
Pants: Jacob from 2006. I bought these in Old Montreal, so long ago and I still get questioned if they’re brand new. They’re dressy jean material, but I never wear them anywhere besides work. So they still have a hardcore crease in them, even after I wash them. Nice.
Shoes: The giraffe patterned ones!

Ugh, it’s been a long week.

All about the past

ootd-sept29Yesterday I wore this outfit since on Monday I was literally freezing my bum off in the office. I’m not used to a really open modern office concept. I was so cold I kept having to tissue off my nose. Sorry if that’s TMI, but it’s true! Look how bundled up I was. In the A.M. the bus is always so packed I’m standing and unwillingly close to someone’s dandruffy scalp that I can smell it. Not pleasant. I ended up mistakenly wearing my rain jacket on the bus — you can’t breath in those. Thankfully the bus really does only take 11 minutes to get to work (and only 2 stops to work, as it’s the express). Finally on the last stop before my work, enough students piled off the bus, I got a seat and took off my jacket. [/end complain complain complain]

I should have edited out my red–eye but when I did it looked like I had monstrous brown/green eyes that looked really badly edited. So I didn’t bother. lol Instead, I cropped out the shredder and the kitchen. I should really iron those pants.

Earrings: Aerie (I rarely change out my earrings)
Scarf: $20 available now at Abercrombie
Cardigan: J. Crew (So in ♥ with this cardy)
White Tee: Long sleeved basic tee from Abercrombie (Winter 2008)
Pants: GAP (A nice subtle khaki and beige stripe)
Shoes: The giraffe patterned ones!

Later gaters.

outfit-sept-24Outfit of the day — September 24, 2009

Top: Dynamite ($30.90)
Sweater: JCrew ($$$!)
Necklace: Forever 21 ($4.80)
Navy striped pants: Jacob (Price unknown, bought it in the summer)

I think I pulled this together pretty nicely. It makes me laugh a bit because I was sized up by both males and females wearing this today. I sported it with my yellow leather Nine West purse and brown penny loafer type leather Nine West flats.


After work (on September 23) I needed to go to the grocery store. Since it’s in a little strip mall, I decided to head into one of the shoe stores and look for a pair of black flats. Didn’t get any flats, but I certainly got some crazy deals on wallets + coin purses!! The smaller coin purse was originally $25 and I got it for $7.50, then the wallet type thing was originally $48 marked down to $12.00 OMFG. Photos below.

I didn’t stop there either. The other night I went shopping and got some cute tops for work.

topsLeft: Reitmans for $40
Right: Costa Blanca $22.50

Both of these tops are see-through and would need a black cami underneath.

I think I need a few more pairs of pants for the fall/winter, and maybe some black flats. I had a pair from Reitmans that were just $24 and just exactly what I paid for. Cheap. I wore them a handful of times and got caught in a rainstorm and ended up walking in calf deep puddles. So, they’re ruined. On the hunt I go!
