Sparrows, Hearts & Other Truths...

149 comments / outfits
{TOP: H&M, SKIRT: MODCLOTH, BELT: MODCLOTH, TIGHTS: MODCLOTH, SHOES: GIFT FROM MOM}

I will not lie ...it was kind of challenging taking pictures indoors today. I have grown more and more accustomed to taking my pictures outside; however, it's not always possible and today was indeed one of those days. A big BOO to the weather gods -did they not get my memo? "Dear weather gods: Please make sure I have perfect weather today so I can take fabulous pictures for my fashion blog." Hmm, just as I suspected... they didn't get it!

Truths
- I adore this new skirt and want to dedicate my blog to her
- I love my hubs for helping me with these pictures

- I burnt last night's dinner
- Best part? Hubs still said it was yummy

Lesson of the day? Sometimes the best truths come in the form of a "little white lie." Case in point, dinner was not that great, but hubs compliments made me smile. xx veronika

Belt Amnesia & Ice Cream

101 comments / outfits

{JACKET: H&M, DRESS: H&M, BELT: MODCLOTH, TIGHTS: HUE, SHOES: GIFT FROM MOM}

Please note that I have not worn this ModCloth belt in the last several posts. And if I have, I would like to plead a temporary case of “belt amnesia.” I would also like to state for the record, that I will be wearing this belt again, and for that I would like to blame ModCloth, because they sell darn cute belts!

I am also equally enthusiastic about this scarf. I love adding textures & layers to my outfits. And I also love having clothes that are my BFF’s -you know, the ones that you can always depend on: you thrift together, drink tea together, and if you have one too many glasses of wine, you might even hear them talk to you! Hehe, don’t worry you guys, I DON’T talk to my clothes. I usually reserve those crazy antics for my closet. It usually consists of loud groaning with some swearing, and it is brought on by me having nothing to wear! Luckily, I have an emergency plan: stay home, eat ice-cream, and make hubs watch re-runs of “sex and the city.” xx veronika

PS - I also had (you may have noticed) my hair dyed a warm red-brown this week, which I love. Hope you guys like it too. AND I also tried the new “Moroccan Oil” that everyone is talking about. DISCLAIMER: MOVE ASIDE HUSBAND, BECAUSE THERE’S A NEW LOVER IN TOWN!

The Sweet & Simple Things

115 comments / outfits

{SWEATER: KERSH, TOP: MODCLOTH, BELT: MODCLOTH, SHORTS: AE, TIGHTS: AE, SHOES: JOE FRESH}

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

Easy Sunday...

118 comments / outfits

{HOODY: FRENCH CONNECTION, DRESS: MODCLOTH, TIGHTS: JACOB, BOOTS: GUMDROPS}

Easy, like a Sunday morning! Yup. That was yesterday’s dressing mantra, you guys. What can I say? That damn song was stuck in my head. Although, I do have to confess that I am a sucker for comfort. I love dressing up (LOVE!), but sometimes dressing for ease and comfort, especially on a lazy Sunday, is the cat’s pajamas! And yesterday was just that kind of day.

An easy Sunday includes:
- wearing my husband’s cozy knitted hoody
- jumping in a big puddle and letting out an excited squeal
- chasing my dog on the beach
- napping in the car on our way to get Japanese food (oops, sorry hubs)
- and making another list for my bloggy, while wiggling my toes in my gum boots

Alright my fabulous fashionistas... wishing you all a lovely Valentines Day. Oh, and don’t tell, K? But, I still haven’t planned anything for the hubs. I will obviously have to resort to Plan B: get hubs tipsy, feed him lots of yummy food, and assume he won’t remember too much in the morning. xx veronika
