W is for Wine

Three in one day, no way!


Like my new haircut? It was one of my birthday presents! I love the way she worked with the texture to make it something that I'll be able to do in, like, two seconds at home!


So, I went for lots of colours that remind me of wine in this outfit! Most of them are Arbour Mist kinds, haha. Shoutout to my braintwin Amanda! The purple tights are the blackberry Merlot, and the burgundy dress is the mixed berry Pinot Noir! The gold belt is definitely the new white pear Pinot Grigio. We have to get it at our next reunion!! Haha!


I've had this belt since GRADE SIX! Can you believe it? Me neither. That's...eleven years? Holy moly. I had a really terrible middle school experience, so I'm glad that one of the only things from it that I still have is so pretty!


I threw on this pretty silk floral scarf that my sister hand-me-upped the other day. Yay! One of the perks of living at home ;)


I love my little blue suede booties! I can't wait for clement weather, so I can actually wear them places without the salt and ice and icky stuff like that ruining them. Same goes for most of my shoes, the plastic bags that I carry them to school and work in are really cramping my style.


Clearly I wore my navy faux-leather jacket to match the shoes! Haha ;)


I love the dark colours and textures in this outfit! I came up with all kinds of other ideas for this dress when I was wearing it, for more dark, saturated looks. I guess winter can stay 'til I've worn them all!




Somehow, this wrap cardigan makes my leather jackets warm enough for low temperatures! Unfortunately, it doesn't have a butt-warming forcefield. Can't win 'em all! At least the velevet dress is warm, so it wasn't a problem this day ;)


Weather forecast for tomorrow: ice pellets. Mother nature is mocking southeastern-New Brunswickers.

Happy dressing ;)

  6. I love the bordeaux colours in this look, especially the combination of your scarf and dress. And I can't believe you're wearing a belt you've had for eleven years... that's when you know you have a really good accessory! (Not to mention how impressive it is that it still fits :D). I'm following :)
