Life is about the simple things. Yup, it’s a proven theory that it’s the simple things that make us happy. Case in point, let me get a little scientific on you guys: I photographed both of my looks outside this week (thank you Spring); hubs said that I looked really pretty in my new ruffly ModCloth top, and the big drum-roll, please... he made a yummy spaghetti dinner for me. My elaborate study shows? Exhibit A (that be me) felt happy!
I also felt happy lounging around the condo in this outfit! We then sauntered off for a hot tea and played some pool. Please be forewarned, that playing pool with me involves ducking when it’s my turn to hit the ball. My raging talent for injuring bystanders playing pool, is also blatantly obvious when I am handling a pool stick. And for the final icing on the cake? My playful but snarky comments about how I am going to kick your a**. Obviously, I am a charmer! End result? Hubs won. Hehe, not a surprise. Happy Monday, lovely readers. Hope you guys had a great weekend! xx veronika
Hey at least you'll play pool...I'm too chicken. And I'm competitive, so if I know I won't be any good, I just don't even try. How awful is that?!
ReplyDeleteYou look incredible in the shorts and tights. I love the black tights with the cream blouse. Gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteI grew up on the eastside,near Commercial Drive, then moved to False Creek when I was 12 and stayed in that area until coming to Sydney. What about you? I miss Vancouver so much, I even miss the rain! When it's rainy and grey here and all the Sydneysiders are complaining, I'm totally in my element. They think I'm nuts. xx

ReplyDeleteThis outfit is making me want to butcher a pair of my jeans and just hope & pray I look as cool as you!!! Such a fun ensemble.
ReplyDeleteLeaving the House in THIS?!?!
I second that theory - some of the best days I've had have consisted of nothing more than lounging outside with friends and eating yummy food.
ReplyDeleteI love your blouse! It's so adorable.

As always- love everything about this outfit! Especially that pretty top. I've yet to purchase anything from Modcloth *gasp* I know! I want to so very badly but the whole not being able to try on different sizes thing scares me a little. I have a feeling I'm going to find *the perfect* spring item on there though and I'm just going to go for it!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite picture is the button detail shot- so pretty and feminine!
so great! buttons on the back of the top, very individual and unique, great choices!
