(See the dress in previous years here and here.) Hey, a new background! Check out our crazy climbing roses. This dress is from Vero Moda and I bought in Prague way back in 2008. I had planned to wear a different dress today but the temperature has jumped up this weekend and so sleeves were… Continue reading 30 Day Dress Challenge 2016 – Day 5
(See previous years here and here.) If I had thought ahead, I would have taken pictures first thing in the morning today - before we headed out to the beach where I sat in the sand with Pearl, waded through the waves, and generally had a fantastic time and came home with my dress wet… Continue reading 30 Day Dress Challenge – Day 4
Tried for photos today while Pearl was awake. (She is not wearing a dress.) My dress is from Old Navy. (I think it's still on sale.) It's linen so it has a nice weight. I ordered it in a tall so that it would be more "Mom-appropriate". Old Navy's vanity sizing drives me crazy though.… Continue reading 30 Day Dress Challenge – Day 3
Today was a work day for me so I can be a bit fancier. I'm wearing dangly earrings! This dress is Calvin Klein but I found it in a second hand shop. (You can see how I've worn it before here.) My cardigan is from Winners. I've worn it lots and it has a fun… Continue reading 30 Day Dress Challenge 2016 – Day 2
It's back! It's June and I'm going to wear dresses! Way back when, in 2013, I decided to spend a month wearing all the dresses in my closet. I had/have a lot of dresses. You can read the original post here. I had fun wearing my favourite article of clothing and clearing out my closet… Continue reading 30 Day Dress Challenge 2016 – Day 1
This past weekend, Peter and I had a whirlwind city trip to attend a wedding. And by whirlwind, I mean that we totally had time to stop for donairs when we stumbled across the Vancouver Latino festival. (Not that donairs are Latino...) A wedding gave me a chance to wear one of my fancier dresses… Continue reading Lately (+ a bonus dress!)
This dress may look familiar. In fact, this picture may look familiar. I'll be honest - this is a photo from Day 2. I wore this dress again yesterday and when I curled up in bed last night, realized I hadn't taken a picture that day. So the 30 Day Dress Challenge ends on a… Continue reading Day 30 – 30 Day Dress Challenge 2014
2 days, 2 dresses! Day 28: The Dress: A repeat from Day 8, this is my Joe Fresh dress again. This time I added a belt, just for a change. I like the way it likes fine both ways but I definitely like wearing it without a belt better. You know, comfort. And since it… Continue reading Days 28 & 29 – 30 Day Dress Challenge 2014
Today is one of those days on the West Coast when people make corny jokes like, "Summer's over. Hope you enjoyed all 2 days of it!" Don't worry - I make them too. It was either grey or raining all day which ruined my sandal plan. I'm getting a lot more wear out of my… Continue reading Day 27 – 30 Day Dress Challenge 2014
Repeat, repeat, repeat. I wore this dress back on Day 7 and here it is again with a different sweater. Earlier in the afternoon it was warm enough to wear on its own but by the time evening rolled around, so had the clouds. I had one of those crazy productive days that leave you… Continue reading Day 26 – 30 Day Dress Challenge 2014
