Lovey Dovey Sunday

{SCARF: THRIFTED, BAG: H&M, CARDIGAN: KIRSH, JACKET: H&M, JEGGINGS: CITIZIN OF HUMANITY, SHOES: GIFT FROM MUM}

I was just reading somewhere that fashion bloggers all seem to have the same poses. Interesting? Apparently common poses are: looking to the side, looking down, and feet pointing inwards. Gulp! Um. Guilty, and guilty! Yes officer, I am guilty on all counts of “predictable blogger posing!” Ok. Obviously I will need to learn some new moves. Or maybe predictable is nice? I say we blame the hubs for my poses. He clicks while I pose. So obviously in this case I am innocent. Phew!

As for the weekend? It was a great one! Hubs and I ate some super yummy sashimi, walked our four-legged child (aka pooch), and did some SHOPPING! I found some great bits at Joe Fresh ...suede tassled booties (love them); rest assured that I will be remixing those to death! And I bought a gazillion (only slight exaggeration) of coloured tights for $5.00 a pair -sweet, sweetness! Which brings me to my second favourite four letter word (no not that one)... SALE of course! WARNING: the word "sale" may cause husbands/boyfriends to act unpredictably. Symptoms may include: excessive kisses, cleaning the kitchen, long foot massages, and doing your laundry. Happy Monday everyone! xx veronika

    Thanks for the lovely blog comments {and advice on the eye glasses}
    I'm so guilty of the 'I'm staring at my feet pose'. Ha!

  6. I miss being able to shop for Joe Fresh daily...
    I love how chic this look is while still being casual!
    As for blogger poses I think the reason so many are guilty of doing the same poses is because they're the ones that work best. They're also the least awkward

  7. MAYBE we all pose that way because it looks sweet and innocent. We're such con artists. Red lips, red nails... mmm hmm. FAN.

  11. Oh, please don't give me a ticket! I am so guilty of that too that I tell myself, try new poses! When I get in front of the camera, I forget about all that talk!

    Stay Happy and Positive!

  15. Hahaha, I am sooo guilty of all predictable blogger poses! But my looking away/looking down is more because I feel awkward and don't know what to do with my face, so I look away! And YAY for joe fresh - excited to see your purchases! I love their tights, I am actually wearing a pair in tomorrow's post!

  16. I have that same H&M bag; I'm inspired to dig it out now and style it up. Love the jeggings with the girly flats - so cute!

    I am completely guilty of the typical blogger poses, but lately I try to be a little more natural. Obviously, that hasn't really been working lol.

  17. You are making me want to cut my bangs again! you look fab :)

  18. I love that four letter word too!
    And I know blogging poses are predictable but there are only a few ways to stand so it was bound to happen. If we look off the the side in reflection, we are fashion bloggers and if we hang off a musty couch we're edgy but trying too hard. No one ever wins...:)

  19. Haha! I'm totally guilty of predictable posing. It's hard, I think. I don't know about you, but I'm just trying not to look like a complete geek. LOVE that H&M purse!!

  35. LOVE that bag! and also, i am just as guilty of those poses. if i look tired and beaten down that day, sometimes all i want to do is look down! and the toes pointed in, i'm pretty sure that is when people's legs look the skinniest!

  36. Hi, I recently started following your blog (hence the comments on older posts!) and I'm really enjoying your blog. You've inspired me to "remix" my wardrobe and stop shopping every time I think I don't have anything to wear.Keep up the great job:)
