Unknown Legend

So on saturday we had that wonderful bbq on one of my good friends patio. It was a lot of fun, there was lots of food and laughs to be shared. I love the weather we're having, because I love being outside enjoying the weather. We don't get great weather here for many months so it feels like we have to soak up as much of it as we can when it's here.

This is what I wore to the BBQ/patio party, and I really love these colours together. The top is actually a romper but it's not quite warm enough for that, it's a great coral colour. And I love it with the polka dot blue skirt (which I'm still obsessed with) Feels like a great summer look to me! I can't wait for it to get even hotter, I really love the heat because I am always so cold. Also someone told me I looked like wonder woman in this outfit, sweet haha

PS. When Bryce was taking these pictures there were people on their balcony across the street yelling at us and being beligerant. Why is getting a few pictures taken a big deal?!

Best of the week & casual sundays

Howdy, this is what I wore today to take my younger brother and one of his friends to go see the hangover two. I figured I'd be nice and get the 16 year olds into an 18 + movie. I get along really well with my brothers, my older one is 6 years older and younger one is 5 years difference. And I kind of really like that dynamic, theres enough gap so we don't want to kill each other 24/7 (only 24/3). I grabbed some shorts with the nice weather, my super comfy pineapple blouse and my blazer. I swear this blazer is the best investment I ever made.

I rely on you, like yellow does on blue

Howdy all, this is gunna be a quick one or else I shall be late for work!! I don't work tomorrow but have a ridiculously busy day of doctors appointments and other unfun things. But this weekend my friend is having a bbq so I hope the rain stops and we can enjoy sitting outside on the deck.
I wore this yesterday to work, this skirt I feel is really short, but with tights it doesn't feel so bad. And it was chilly so my button up chambray shirt was perfect top to keep me a little warmer. It's also a little more masculine and when mixed with this skirt I like the way that looks.
Oh, also, blogger isn't letting me comment? Anytime I sign and go to comment it signs me out again. Hmmm, I shall attempt on my dads computer and see if that helps. How frustrating I want to comment on everyones blogs! Hopefully it'll sort itself out

Navy & Lavender

Hello my dears, today I am feeling a bit under the weather, I think it's just allergies though. I shall sip some hot lemon ginger tea with honey in it and i'll be good as new I'm sure. Too bad I have to go back to work today, booo.
This is an outfit I wore few days ago. I recently rediscovered this dress in my wardrobe, it was sitting on a desk in my basement and I have no idea how it ended up there. I bought this dress for my birthday last summer, I absoutley love the light lavender colour and subtle shimmer threading in it. Lavender + navy just seemed like a natural colour combination on this day, and I like leaving this dress unbelted because of the unique waistline.

Best of the Week, Lake edition

So it's been a very good week despite a) Loosing my brand new phone and having to buy another and b) putting out my back. So ridiculous right? Let's focus on the positive though...

Fishing off the dock at the lake with bryce and my brother and catching 5 fish; Going out to the lake in general; Smell of rain; Beautiful sunshine; Long games of snakes and ladders; Getting the call for the date of my surgery; catching more fish than my brother did; big comfy thick sweaters to keep me warm; Drives through the alberta countryside; Cute sandals; Long weekends; Going out with friends;

Break on through

I feel like I'm really behind on outfit posts, I have a bunch sitting on my camera so here I am updating on a saturday. But since it's the long weekend my sunday post will probably be moved to monday. I'm driving out to a lake on sunday for the day and am going to enjoy that!

This outfit is from a couple days ago, what I wore to work and then afterwards I had to go get iron infusions. My iron levels are too low right now so I get hooked up to an IV for an hour and they pump me full of iron. I am Iron Woman!

This scarf is probably one of my favorite one's ever. I bought it last summer in the town of Barrhead, while we were camping nearby. The colours in it are so fantastic, I had forgotten I owned it until I was going through some drawers the other day. Perfect way to punch up a black dress with a bit of colour, that and bright blue nails :)

Walk in the ravine

I feel like I'm really behind on photos, these are from MONDAY! I had the day off and hung out with my best friend and lounged around. It was great. When my little brother came home from school I talked him into going for a walk with me too. We walked to starbucks had some iced drinks and continued our walk, he even snapped some photos for me.

I got this dress last week and am really happy with it, I love the colour so much, and the price. It was 13 dollars, can you really go wrong there? I added some other really bright colours to compliment the dress, bright green jacket, and bright coral scarf. I was wearing my denim jacket but it was really warm out and it wasn't even needed really. A pretty simple look but that's what I really like in the summertime.

It was so pretty in the ravine by the river where we were walking, everything is getting so green!

Pineapple Express

Good day my lovelies. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and your weeks are starting off well! I had yesterday off so I had a long weekend and today is my monday. Of course I don't want to go back to work though. Does anyone ever want to work? I would love to spend all day on my deck everyday with a good book.

This is an outfit from late last week when I spent all day reading on my deck, but I had to work in the evening. I ended up burning my poor pale skin on my shoulders/chest even though I had sunscreen on! But its all better now.

This top is silk, and feels gorgeous on, I love the print and colour. It has pinapples on it, how could I ever say no to pinapples! I love the top together with the striped skirt, they fit together really well. And my hair is up! I never wear my hair up, but this day because of the heat + wind, it was necessary. It felt like the perfect summer outfit to me!
