I’m a Colourful Hobo

In seeing as how it is the last day of work this year, I was in no rush to wake up. This inevitably meant that I was going to be late for work. Not to mention that we got home late last night and I had a nice hot shower right before bed, but my hair didn’t quite dry and so it was a small disaster today. Hence the Hair Bun of Madness…

I kind of feel like this outfit looked better in person. Or maybe I am just New Years Eve Eve delirious.

Can you believe that tomorrow is day 365!?

So, in celebrating my last ‘work’ outfit of the year, I went for a Clown look. HA.

A basic white T paired with a knit sweater vest that my brother got me for Christmas (go Steven!) thrown under a Teal Kersh sweater made for a good start. I felt that the scarf was essential for warmth and fun. Clowns are fun, right? Dish Jeans and Chuck Taylors rounded out me looking ridiculous today.

I was running around like a bit of a nut all day, but maybe that’s because tomorrow is the last day of this project!!!

The Mixing of Neutrals

We got a last minute dinner invite from friends today which was totally awesome because I was in no mood to cook and hadn’t taken anything out of the freezer yet. Score 1 for being lazy! The best part of the holidays is catching up with everyone and having dinners and spending time. It was such a lovely evening.

I went with a very ‘blah’ colour palate today, but I love the colours none the less. Something you need a bit of the ‘non-exciting’.

White T + Taupe Kersh Sweater (so friggin comfortable!) + Grey Mavi Denim Leggings + Black Boots + Silver Beaded Necklace from Plum

I love the way this looks put together. I was a little uneasy about the way it might look, but I was pleasantly surprised.

Sometimes neutrals can be your best friends <3

Work Shmerk

I was definitely not ready to go back to work today. I envy those who get all of the Christmas break off work. Not that three days in a half dead office is difficult, but I’d much rather be sitting on the couch with a cup of tea.

I know that this is the last official week of the project, and I probably should put some sort of effort into my outfits, but honestly, I am so exhausted!

Today I look like a rocked our farm worker. I kind of like it actually.

I layered a long white T with my Plaid Boyfriend blouse from Plum. I then wore my 3/4 sleeve Kersh Boyfriend sweater over top and rolled up the cuffs to match.

Dish motorcycle jeans, faux fryes, and my hair in a braid and I am ready to milk the cows.

I guess deep down inside, I’m kind of rugged.

Sick in a Dress

So, I put aside my cold for a minute to wear a dress. It is true! We got these new fleece lined leggings at work, and I knew, as someone who is always cold, I had to buy these. These leggings are amazing! Probably the warmest I’ve been in a while, and I’m not even wearing pants!

I wore the dress I bought in the Summer from target. I wore a white T under it, because I’m obsessed with doing that. Teal Kersh Sweater over top added a pop of colour. Fleece tights and grey knee high socks add some ‘leg interest’ with my black boots. I love this idea of wearing tights and knee high socks.

For as much jewellery as I have, I only went with simple white earrings that I stole from my Mom years ago. I was sane enough to put this outfit together, but not sane enough to accessorize it.

Now that I have these fleece lined leggings, dresses and skirts in the Winter will definitely be an option for me!

Cold Sore Face

With less then 2 weeks left until this whole project is over, you’d think I’d maybe put some more effort into things. To bad its that time of year where I get a cold that lasts forever and slowly eats away at my soul. I woke up with another cold sore today. 2nd in as many weeks, but this one is visible so it is therefore grosser. Ugh. It makes me feel like poop.

Outfit Love

How predictable am I? Very predictable because every time I wear this sweater I am in love.

Tonight we went on the Christmas Train around Stanley Park, so wearing layers was a must. We still froze our butts off, but at least the extra layers took a little of the edge off.

The train we fun times and we all went out for foods afterwards which was fun times as well.

I wanted to parade around in my comfy and warm outfit all night long!

Down By The River

Well, this outfit kind of turned out better then I expected. It’s not normally something I would wear, but I decided to layer a bunch of different things to see how it turned out. Plus, during this time of cold and sickness, it was nice to be all cozy and warm.

I know I’ve worn this scarf quite regularly these days, but it just seems to fit so many things. I particularly love the way it contrasts with the blue. One of my favourite colour combinations!

So I…wore a white long sleeve T, under a grey over sized T, under a blue Kersh sweater, topped off with a green handkerchief scarf. I wore the white long sleeve T one, so I would be warm, and two, so it the sleeves would hang out longer then the sweater. I like cuffs like that.

As for pants, I wore my Mavi cargo pants and black boots.

These black boots work for most outfits, but they are a little too casual/rain boot-esque for my tastes these days. I need to get a flat black boot that is a little bit more fancy. Kind of like a cross between these boots and my other black heeled boots. Maybe then I would be happy!? Ha, who knows!

Another Day in Bed

This Sunday was spent exactly the same as last Sunday. Other then going out for a short while in the morning, I spent it napping and watching TV.

I thought I would spare you another last minute PJ photo and actually take one of my moring outfit.

Nothing too exciting, just something presetable for public consumption!

See, nothing exciting!

In With The Trees

I hung out with the Christmas Tree today. You only get so much time with it in one year, so you really have to live it up when you can.

Running around in those boots yesterday killed me. And trust me, I did run. My feet were so sore this morning that they screamed for a pair of checkered vans, and you know me, when they ask for the Vans they get the Vans.

A casual Hump Day, I reverted back to my 2 favorite colours from earlier this week; grey & purple, Elise’s Wedding colours when I come to think about it. Actually the scarf I am wearing is from Elise’s wedding. See, it’s all connected.

I haven’t warn my Kersh V Neck Pull Overs yet this Winter, so I thought I would bust one out. I chose the Grey one, naturally. Paired with a white t, purple scarf, and Dish jeans, and I had myself a comfortable mid-week party.

Tomorrow they are calling for a rainy disaster of a day. I am not looking forward to it :S

Adventure Land

Miss Alicia and I met up with the ever so lovely Jennifer Stoddart this evening for some coffee & sammiches. We ended up spending 4 hours at Starbucks chatting away. FOUR HOURS! We had such a wonderful time that the night just flew by.

By the time I got home, Mr. Ciavarro was already in be and in no mood to get out of bed to take my photo. Lame! So, the table had to do its thing again.

I fought with my closet this morning. I actually had an outfit all planned out and laid on my dresser, but when I put it on I wanted to puke at how horrible it looked. NOT GOOD. Why do things always look so much better in your head? In a mad rush, this is what I came up with.

Black & White stripped T from H&M Italy paired with a cacoon sweater from Kersh. Navy Mavi Denim Leggings & my Black Army & Navy ‘Steve Madden’ Boots. A long beaded necklace added some colour to this monotone outfit!

Coffee with the girls. Such a lovely, fashionable idea!
