Bows, Sparkles & Ruffles

denim skirt, gap | striped ruffle tee, joe fresh | long coral cardi, joe fresh | sparkly loafers, spring





accessories: lilac tights (i know, they look white), sears | hair bow, h&m | eye glasses (more of necessity than accessory, but i still love 'em), hugo boss


Was it windy where you guys are?  It was brutal here today.  I met a friend down town for coffee this afternoon and I had to park a couple blocks from the cafe & by the time I got there I was wiping grit and sand and grime off my lips and out of my teeth and eyes.  It was rather yucky.  Ah well, it helps the snow disappear a little faster, so I suppose I can live with a sandstorm attacking my face for one day. :)

Can we just talk about the evolution of this outfit for a sec??  Not that you know where it started, but let's just say it's completely different than what I had planned last night.  It's funny (well, for me anyway) to think of where it started and what I actually ended up wearing.  
And I might as well face the fact that I ended up dressing like a five-year-old today.  Sparkly shoes? Check.  Light purple tights?  Yup.  A hair bow?  You got it.  I rest my case.

But hey, that's ok... we should grant ourselves permission to dress like little kids again every now and then.  Their clothes radiate happiness, no? :)  Bright colours, stripes, bows, ruffles, fishie screen print tees, dinosaur rubber boots and Shirley Temple curls... now wouldn't that be a sight if I wore all of those at once! ha!

Happy {productive} Tuesday, everyone!  That to-do list has a big chunk missing out of it after today!  Yay!
