What I Wore Today - The "I'm Finally Well Enough To Get Dressed" Edition

Hello there lovelies,

As the title of this post suggests, I finally felt well enough to put on some real clothes today! I've been pretty much stapled to the couch, in trackpants, ugg boots & hoodies for the last three days. Add that to the fact that I've felt a little off for the last few weekends, and then you begin to understand how excited I was to actually get dressed today. Excuse my awkward posing - I took my tripod out with me for the first time today (up until now I've been balancing my camera on the car) & got a little camera-shy. A bit ridiculous I know, but then, I am a little ridiculous myself.

Outfit Rundown:

Long sleeve tee: Bonds, $16.95
Dress-thingy: Trade Secret, $24.95
Jeans: Jag, $39.95
Belt: Trade Secret, $7.95

This shot is the most awkward of the bunch. Also, I have somehow managed to make my chest look about ten times its' actual size. It was probably some kind of magic, somehow related to how I felt like a witch when I put this outfit on. Yes, a witch who wears blue jeans. Next time I'm planning on wearing this combo with a pair of black & white striped tights, and some ruby slippers. Whaddayathink?

I haven't had a pair of boot-cut jeans that actually fits nicely in so long that I'd kind of forgotten how awesome they can be. Funny story: the last weekend that I went to Hervey Bay, these pants split. They were also the only pants I packed for the entire weekend. Luckily, I had gotten a bonus at work that week, and finally caved to buying these jeans on the Friday afternoon before I left. If not for that, I would have been pants-less that whole weekend. Oh, and did I mention that my other pair of pants split while I was checking out garage sales with The Boyfriend and his family? So in a way, I was also lucky that I was lazy enough to leave the bag containing the jeans in the car. The moral of this story is, sometimes jeans can save you from total humiliation.

Anyway, I was distraught over the loss of my favourite pants - but luckily for me, I have an awesome Nana. When I got back from the garage sales, I told her about the pants-splitting incident, and how distraught I was to lose those pants that I'd had for years. Then my wonderful Nana produced an almost identical pair from her cupboard, and gave them to me. Best Nana ever!

Now, how were your weekends lovelies? I hope you spent far less time getting acquainted with your toilets that I did.

Until next time, xo.

P.S. Here is a photo of me casting a spell on you. Told you I felt like a witch. It may or may not be some kind of spell to convince you you're all totally awesome. You're welcome.
