I have mentioned my favourite Megan a few times.  She is in good company with other awesome Megans (like Everyday Mom Style and the Frugalista Diaries) but is the only one that I get to actually hang out with and play dress up!  And that’s what we did today! Megan has an adorable four-month-old baby girl and is going through the familiar struggles of dressing

This morning, I had a hard time deciding what to wear.  I put on a dress, thinking I could squeeze one more wear before the true autumn weather hits, but it felt all wrong.  So I changed my ensemble. Wool cardigan $7 VV Boutique Green tank second-hand from my Thrifter Sister Gold double-strand necklace $4 VV Boutique Gap Long ‘n Lean sepia-wash jeans circa 2004

These beautiful fall days are a lovely transition into cooler weather but can be a bit tricky to dress.  When I leave in the morning, it is chilly and by the afternoon, I’m ready for shorts and a tank top.  Yet my cozy pieces are calling to me…  So today I thought I would try to have it all.  My light and airy lace tie

Last Tuesday night, I went shopping for pants, specifically, work pants.  For me, that is a broad definition.  I could wear anything from jeans to suits to work, depending on my tasks for the day.  (Though I did hear that one site has banned coloured denim!!  As if that is the most offensive thing people wear.  Ahem yoga pants, cough cough.)  I thought there was

I have said it before and I will say it again: I am blessed with awesome friends.  The kind of friends that hear about my little project, understand and respect my “rules” and then give me clothes because that classifies as second-hand.  And that is how I came to have a 100% free 100% silk Banana Republic silk peplum top.    I have been gobbling

The alternate title for this post would be: “My Boobs were Too Big for this Top”  But I was afraid of being found on search engines by the term “boobs.”  I don’t even know if that would happen, but just in case… This is the other top I bought way back when I purchased my beloved chambray.  I didn’t try it on but it was

Sometimes when you make a colossal style error, you just can’t wait to try again.  Since I was working in a completely different place on Wednesday and would see no one that I had seen on Monday, I decided to give my beloved tunic another chance to shine with a better ensemble!  Here is my do-over (photo on-location at my favourite Megan’s): Tunic $6 VV

I’m not really blue today but it is cold and windy and I had to buckle my Mini Fussypants into her car seat SIX times and even marshmallows didn’t ease that process.  (I DO IT MYSELF)  I knew it was going to be a busy day so I reached for my new favourite pants, purchased on Fashion’s Night Out – Gap cobalt chinos. I was

I’m a happy lady at the moment.  My kids are sleeping, my husband is making cherry jelly, I’m watching ANTM and I have finally taken off what I now know to be hideous cropped pants.  Which you are about to see.  Be easy on me. Before this spring and summer, I didn’t put much thought into my capri pants.  Last year, I wore whatever fit

I don’t normally work on Fridays but I had to work today and attend a big annual meeting.  Since I was up way too late after Fashion’s Night Out VV Boutique-Styled, I didn’t have time to plan an outfit for the day.  For special days or big meetings, I enjoy pondering my ensembles and trying on new combinations, checking in on Pinterest or some of
