Spring And Summer 2017 Bloopers!

I had so much fun doing this last time that I thought I’d share the photos that just don’t make the cut, because sometimes real life ain’t pretty. 😉

Tuesday's OOTW - Solid

I love prints so much. Especially when they are bright prints. However, a girl sometimes needs to tone it down and strut some denim and khaki. I didn’t want to make my outfit totally blah so I added my new red bag. I can see me getting lots more usage out of this bag through fall and winter. I have had this denim skirt for years. If you don’t have one, now is the time to pick one up as they are in stores now. They are so comfy and versatile, you can wear them with pretty much anything. And I’m super stoked to be finally wearing a pair of aviator sunglasses. Up until now I have steered clear of getting a pair because every pair I tried on looked awful on me. I think the biggest problem was that they were all too big for my small face. Then I was at the Alberta Aviation Museum’s gift shop and they had aviator sunnies for $5. So I tried on a pair just for fun and they looked awesome! My search was over. Highway to the danger zone indeed.

Tuesday's OOTW - Dots Right!

I love a colourful background to take my Outfit Of The Week. This wall in my hometown of Saskatoon fit the bill nicely. Because the wall is so busy, I thought it would be good to wear a simple outfit instead of my usual bright print mixes. I have been living in these ruffled t-shirts most of the summer. I love them so much I bought a whole bunch of different colours. They are lightweight and super comfy. The skirt I have had for years but never worn until this summer. And now it has shown up in two of my posts. The other post is here. 

About to go on holidays this Sunday and I can’t wait. I’ve even decided to task a *gasp* break from my blog and all social media. I think everyone needs to recharge sometimes. What are you going to be doing for a break this summer? Let me know in the comments below.

Tuesday's OOTW - Fabloomus!

Am I starting to run out of cute pun titles for my OOTW, or am I just super tired? I think it’s the latter. It’s been a very stressful three months in our family. As today is the first day of a new month, I am seriously hoping things improve! I must admit I am already feeling a bit more cheery looking at this gorgeous dress. I have never seen anything exactly like it before and haven’t since I bought it, but I will try to find something comparable in my link below. Grabbing my trusty corset belt, and my super comfy block hell sandals and I’m ready to take on the world. But that doesn’t mean that I don’t desperately need a break. So heads up! I’m taking a week off in August to go camping. I’ll fill you in on the details later. In the meantime, what are you up to in August? Let me know in the comments below.

Tuesday's OOTW - Peaceful Waters

I have had a demanding, rough past seven days. My next door neighbour has worked on his truck with grinding instruments each night for two hours, my toddler won’t sleep and throws tantrums, I’ve dealt with idiots at web site hosting, the weather is freezing, and pretty much every task I have tried to do has blown up in my face. ARRRRRRRGGHHHH!!

*end of rant*

Anyhow these set of photos take me back to a calmer time on my vacation to Saskatoon. It might have been the last time I was totally relaxed. So not kidding. Anyhow, I am digging this spaghetti strap off the shoulder top. It allows someone as busy as me to enjoy the off shoulder trend without constantly yanking down the shoulder material so the top remains off my shoulder. And I love print mixing so I added my polka dot skirt, a fab bag, some pink wedges, and a pair of my earrings that I’m now selling in my shop. *shameless plug* What are you doing these days to relax? Let me know in the comments below.

Tuesday's OOTW - Cutting The Mustard

People are starting to make me angry. What’s all this talk about fall?!?! I realize that summer is almost half over but I don’t want to hear anything about fall for at least another month and a half, okay? 

So here is a summer outfit. I loved that I could find a summer shirt in a mustard colour. In the past mustard was just trotted out for fall, but now you can find it any season and I couldn’t be happier. Paired with a turquoise statement necklace, bright floral orange skirt, pale blue bag, and cute block heeled sandals, and I was definitely ready for a BBQ. But there were none, so I went with a walk in the gorgeous Saskatoon river valley with friends instead. But if you know of a great BBQ, send me an invite! I’m always hungry.

Tuesday's OOTW - Number Onesie

My Mom rocks. I was visiting her in Saskatoon and still needed to put up an outfit on my Instagram feed. I thought my friend was taking photos of me. But after the photo shoot was done and I was trying to upload the photos onto my laptop from my camera, I discovered she hadn’t taken a single photo. She must not have known how to work my camera. After crying discovering I had no photos, my Mom braved the horrible mosquitoes and a fussing two-year-old to take the following photos of me. I’m glad she did because I love this onesie. It is made of a really great material, the pattern is pretty, and it’s easy to get on and off – which is very important when you’re in a public washroom with a toddler who loves to swing open the stall door. Also I had to buy the summer it earrings. I like them so much I am selling a few different colours in my jewelry company on eBay.  So swing over and grab a pair because 100% of the profits go to feeding my family. So do you like onsies?

Tuesday's OOTW - I Have A Palm Print Addiction

Happy 4th of July to all my American friends!

So yes I just might have a palm print addiction – see here, and here. I have to admit that it is my favourite print of the summer, Maybe it’s because it reminds me of a nice place where I could drink cold drinks and have someone wait on me get some sleep. I’m a simple girl. My palm print tunic fits on the larger side, so I got a small. I had this skirt forever and it matched perfectly so I thought they’d be best friends. And lately I’ve been all about green and pink together so I grabbed my me new green bag. What’s your favourite trend of this summer? Let me know in the comments below.

Tuesday's OOTW - Have 'Em Eating Outta The Palm Of Your Hand!

I am loving the palm print trend so much that this is my second go at it. My first palm OOTW is here. I immediately fell in love with this dress and had to have it. I think that green and pink is awesome together. I’m also crushing on my new pink sunnies but unfortunately Tim (my husband) hates them. He is pretty conservative and these sunglasses are far from conservative indeed. At least he likes my dress though because it is going to be on repeat this summer. And last but not least my favourite summer wedges. They look a lot like the Marc Jacobs version but less than half price. Maybe that’s why I’m smiling in the photos. Nah. It’s because of the dress.
