Look Book: Bird Prints & Weekend Denim...

Oct 4, 2011

Ah, I love easy weekends! We spent a part of ours visiting with Martin's parents and then enjoyed a visit from my mom the next day: great company, yummy wine, home cooked meals... yes, please!! And (of course) no weekend would be complete without a quick outing & outfit photos. I'm loving how these ones turned out. Martin has been taking more & more of my photos, which I love. It's just one less thing for me (the over-worked girl) to do. Right?! Check, check!
Meet my newest pair of Jeffrey Campbell shoes! Oh my gosh, I'm already contemplating ordering another pair. Guys, I'm seriously addicted ...tell me I'm not the only one! I absolutely love the grey hue of these wedges. Plus, I love pairing a more simple outfit with a statement shoe; it's crazy how much it can do for an outfit. Oh, and this top (so cute, right?) is another swapped goodie that belongs to the gorgeous "Alicia Fashionista" -you can see how she styled it here: Prints Charming. Aww, love that girl. She's such a sweetheart!!
Also, just a couple of Girl & Closet tid-bits. I'm finally on Facebook -yay! You can connect with me here: "Girl & Closet Facebook Page." And, a big thank you to "Style Invasion" for voting my little ole' bloggy at number #15 on their "25 best personal style blogs" list! What an honour, and I'm absolutely thrilled to be included in such great company. Hooray! Hope you're having a fantastic week, friends! ♥
Outfit Details:
Top - swapped with "Alicia Fashionista"
Belt - Thrifted
Jeans - American Eagle
Shoes - Polly, Jeffrey Campbell

  27. ohhhh, promise me you'll never lay off with this type of groove??! leave it to you to source something pretty slick and SO sensational...what did i ever do before your corner of the internet became available? this look would work well in past, present or on a DeLorean trip to the future! It’s out and out awesome.

    damn dibs and my laid back-ness....you scored with Alicia's blouse total Veronika and holy "hello pretty babies" to your latest JC's!!!!!!! um....WOW. so now i must check out the price point and hope it doesn't cause my wallet to slap me upside the head ; )

    your weekend sounded d-vine. lots of family times is something we had too, saw mom and had a nice brunch catch up. Martin really does take great shots, he's got your desired aesthetic down and i like how he got the "bum" shot too. how sneaky is he?! that boy knows whats up, love it!

  37. Ah Veronika, your Jeffrey Campbell addiction makes me smile :) I have yet to jump on the bandwagon myself, mainly because I have a sneaking suspicision just how dangerous it could be. I mean, look at this pair ofgray lace-up booties. Could they be any more adorable? (Not to mention versatile!) I love the way you styled them with Alicia's printed blouse, the combination is perfect weekend chic :)

  65. Thanks for stopping by my blog! I agree...comfort is best! If I am not comfortable then more than likely I am going to change clothes.

    I love this shirt. My husband's favorite animal are birds...because they get to fly, which is something he himself loves to do!

    And you have wonderful hair! Wish my hair looked like that! =)

    Have a lovely day!
