Sunday Outfits & Late Lunch Dates...

May 16, 2011

{SCARF & JACKET: H&M, DRESS: DYNAMITE, JEGGINGS: CITIZEN OF HUMANITY, SHOES: JOE FRESH}

Presenting... my weekend uniform! I jokingly mentioned in Friday’s post that I wanted to style my pajamas, due to extreme fatigue. This is however a close second. Layers, stretchy skinnies, and long tunics (or dresses) are my fave go-to look, for when I have comfort on my mind.

I’m also still managing to work the layers... this is due to the fact that Vancouver is currently having weather commitment issues. But I’m not complaining. I’m a layers girl through and through, so I will hold on to my tights for as long as I can. AND in other over-the-weekend news? I indulged in a HUGE ModCloth shopping spree, ate yummy Chinese food, and forgot to exercise. Although, with swimsuit weather just around the corner, I need to get on it!!

And sending bloggy hugs to the lovely Alexandra of “To Vogue or Bust” for featuring me in her recent post, “Hometown Glory.” And a BIG thank you to "24 Blogazine" for featuring me alongside some of my fave Vancouver fashion bloggers in their "BFF gallery!" xx veronika

    The weather over here is stupidly non-committal as well. We had a few days of bliss, and now it's back to cloudy and rainy. It's just teasing us.. Anyhow, love your jacket :) Especially the girly shoulders. No matter how comfortable the rest of your outfit is, I think it definitely dresses it up.

    Your jacket is so cute with those puffed sleeves. I don't want to speak too soon, but I think I might be getting the hang of H&M. Before I would visit once in awhile and never find any of the cute things I saw bloggers wearing...now I realize the secret is stalk that store 3x a week and multiple locations!

    btw-you really make me want to get bangs :)

    As much as I love my winter clothes, and yours- the leather jacket! The tunic, in the perfect lavender-gray shade! Those obscenely comfortable-looking booties! I die :)- I am getting just a little tired of all these gray days. The temperature doesn't have to go up. I don't mind. Just a little sun, that's all I ask. But, sadly, it's not to be :( Thanks so much for your email, darling, it was really helpful. Hope you're having a wonderful day and I'll see you in just a few short weeks!

    Secondly, I totally relate to your leggings comment...I almost feel "illegal" each time I wear leggings cause they are so comfortable {def. right up there with sweats} yet when styled with a tunic, they look so great and give the outfit a pulled together feel :)

    Love your outfit and can't wait to see what your ModCloth shopping spree included :)

    Well, I have to say that you handle a return to colder temperatures much better than I do...these past few days, I have been back to my basic jeans and long sleeve shirt combination that I was trying to move away from, unfortunately. But this is great inspiration, and if you do have to start layering again after a glimpse of warm days, I think this is the way to do it - I am taking notes!
    On another note, I just received my very first blog award last week, and decided to pass it on to you. It's the One Lovely Blog award and I think your blog is exactly that and much more. There are more details in the latest post on my blog, if you want to check it out :)

    what a good look for a lazy sunday lunch date. the layers work-up is a doozie and so loved; i really gotta search out some more sheer scarves. good tip! that leathery jacket is one of my fave items of yours. it really makes this whole look extra slick. but honestly what would it be without you in it?! you make everything you touch turn golden.
