Hello, lovely readers! Hope everyone is having a great week so far. As for today's outfit post? It's a quick one. I'm actually over at "Sparkling Footsteps," and SO thrilled to be guest blogging for Lynzy today. Be sure to pop by and introduce yourselves. Lynz is ultra fabulous & an absolute sweetheart. I adore her!
As for today's dress? I'm (excitedly) wearing my newly acquired bestie, which I bought on my last thrifting expedition for a whopping $5. Seriously, this is music to my ears! Also, I will be announcing the giveaway winner this Friday, April 1st, so be sure to check back. Happy Wednesday, my fab & fashionable lovelies. xx veronika
{CARDIGAN: CALVIN KLIEN, DRESS: MODCLOTH, BELT: VINTAGE, TIGHTS + SHOES: JOE FRESH}
I’ve been on a down-time binge this week, but alas, all good things must end. I had to forego the top knot & comfy clothes, and get dressed for my girlfriend’s birthday party. Happy Birthday, Tracey! However, this is a good thing because my closet has been giving me the evil eye all week. But “closet's” mood did improve dramatically, once I pulled out this little number -thank goodness!
I happily wore my new ModCloth dress over the weekend and I'm absolutely smitten with this silhouette. I decided to pair it with my skinny vintage belt, which is a nice change from my usual wide go-to belt. And I’m love, loving dresses lately; they are easy to re-mix and appropriate for all seasons -it’s a definite win-win in my fashion books! I'm also still enjoying "tights weather" in my hemisphere, and decided to wear my purple ones, to shake it up.
I also attended my first blogger meet-up this past weekend. Yay! I met some pretty terrific gals; we gabbed blogs and life. And of course I took pictures, which I can’t wait to share with you guys. xx veronika
I had many, many high hopes for myself. Hubs was at an acting workshop for a few days and I had a list of practical & responsible things, which I was hoping to do. Here's how it went down:
High Hopes
Healthy breakfast, go for a jog with my pooch, wear cute clothes, clean the house!
Reality
Slept in, ate cold pizza, watched re-runs of Sex & The City, wore PJ’s all day, made a "mental note" to clean the house -tomorrow!
And I would like to state that I didn't feel guilty, but rather re-charged & happy that I gave myself permission to do a whole lot of blissful nothingness! Prior to hubs' workshop, we went out for a lovely dinner and took these outfit photos. I was thrilled to find this charming location; it backs on to a forest & train tracks and it's safe to say I'll be back for many more outfit pictures. I was also thrilled to wear my new ModCloth skirt, and enjoy some gorgeous, gorgeous sunshine. Hope you guys are enjoying spring and feeling inspired for lots of pretty outfits. xx veronika

Just as my tittle suggests... I had yummy Japanese food, went thrift shopping, and Mr. Hubs joined me for a day of fun. I bought the cutest things, and it’s safe to say, I scored BIG! I ran out of there like a giddy teenager, and spent the next hour rattling off numerous outfit combinations to the hubs. Side note for Mr. Hubs: thank you for listening to my outfit ideas, for smiling, and for nodding with engaged zeal -you rock!
I would also like to state the obvious and say that I wore this outfit when I went thrift shopping, and I really like how it turned out -it’s my “girly & romantic” denim look. I also tried something new with my hair and liked that too. Yup, I was on a roll. OK you guys, I can’t wait to share my new thrifted besties with y’all. I have laundered, serenaded and bonded with them, and my dog has already slept on them. Welcome home new clothes! xx veronika
