Apparel Studies Day 6

are ripped jeans over yet?
i hope not...
you might be wondering why all the words are underlined... well that is a good question. and the answer is that 'i don't know!' and i don't know how to get it normal. so enjoy the underline... and your day. it's sunny here again and all the snow has melted. now we wait for the may snowfall :)



This is a rip...

Apparel Studies Day 5

Well what do ya know... i wore the same thing 2 days in a row!

a jaw dropping....

gasp!

followed by awkward silence and sideways glances.

it was brought to my attention that i should be showing the detail of the clothes also.. well i am so sorry (that's the sorry that when you say it, your voice goes up in the middle of the word) for depriving everyone of this pleasure. here is my thursday outfit, in detail! i wore it out today to breakfast with heather at cora's. she leaves for africa tomorrow, sniff sniff, but she will be back! and i bought new glasses... as you can see, i donned the highschool glasses again today. eye appointment. you know how it goes.

Booties! it snowed yesterday so it is a total boot day

ahh the belt. i do love it.

Hope you had a great day... and that it's not snowing where ever you are!

side note- its about the irony

oh man, i'm so self conscious about my blog and feeling like i need to explain myself again! it's all about the irony. i'm not making a fashion statement.. i'm not trying to make a fashion statement.. it's just normal everyday life.. and it's only for a week. it feels weird posting pictures of myself, like i think a lot of myself or something! 3 days left of my 7 days of "fashion" ha! no idea why i started this.. must have thought i was being witty(?)

Apparel Studies Day 4

hm.. lunch with the workers. couldnt find the dress i really wanted to wear so this was the chosen frock instead. i think i finally found something to wear the belt with. or not... but i thought it went well!
it's blurry.. i dunno know why. oh and according to msn.ca, leggings are out! but i like mine so they will hang on for a bit longer
....and now off to work...

Apparel Studies - Day 3

i have decided that life is about the little things, not the big things. so even tho i am wearing basically the same thing as yesterday, i did change the important things ;)
exam time....
stress....
anxiety.....
nerves.....
cold sweats.
all before 8am.
here i go,
eek!

i'm not sure what happened with this pose.. posing is hard! it always looks cheesy! finally i was just like, "this is just for a blog.. not for my lavalife, plently of fish, or eharmony profile."


And this is the work outfit. inspiring i know. it can only go up from here...

Apparel Studies Day 2

monday, what can i say... i really tried today...
i have a nursing final tomorrow so i'm studying all day in lulu's.
stopped at starbucks on my way to school..
(yes mom, i got a $5 coffee but i'm studying! and out of coffee)
...ahh.

Apparel Studies Day 1

So there was this thing i saw. blog actually. this girl posts everyday what she wears. she wears nice clothes. she knows how to put an outfit together. and after looking at it i wondered how she did it. and by 'it' i mean got dressed so nicely every-single-day. I started thinking, what ever happened to, i slept in, don't feel like showering, haven't washed my hair in 3 days, out of contact solution, sweatpant days? Not gonna lie, I was not born with a sense of style, i do not know how to "dress for my body type," i don't know what to wear with stripes or prints, and if i do get it right... it's most likely a fluke... or black. In fact, when i lived with Molly, i remember her asking me, one sunday while i was making lunch, in an amused tone with an edge of disbelief, "what on EARTH are you WEARING?" I was wearing a grey tweed skirt, brown vest, maroon sweater, and black boots. It was clean, I had never worn the brown vest before, and to be honest, you couldn't see the brown vest because it was covered up. But this was a bad bad outfit. So, over the next 7 days, I am going to document my outfits... what i actually leave the house in. I'm not promising interesting or inspiring fashion. Might just be a sweat pants day....

So here is today....

Before meeting...
check out the pose. america's next top model or what. and i know you like the glasses that are highschool old. today was the 'out of contact solution' day.
I don't actually know how people pose looking over their shoulder. its really hard!

.......aaaand this is about 11 seconds after I walked in the door from meeting...

procrastination vs studying

This is where the magic happens. Ha.
More like, this is where I cram as much into my brain before Thursday at 8am, when I dump it out and proceed to forget all of it.
I cannot wait for that moment.

Procrastination today, in order, has consisted of..

1. Going for breakfast after my Stats exam with the girls from school
2. Watching Cougar Town, Ugly Betty, and Modern Family in bed (pathetic I know)
3. Going outside to study but sun tanning instead
4. Going to Safeway
5. Reading the magazine I bought at Safeway for a "study break"
6. Laughing with Tanya and Lisa over Tanya's bathroom antics
7. Writing an email to my landlord
8. Taking a picture of my desk and writing this ridiculous post.

but this is more interesting then the urinary system and the renin-angiotensin mechanism. which i still have to figure out, great.

ok I'm going. maybe i should make tea first........

Goodbyes

Why are goodbye's so hard.
Today my fabulous, funny, interesting, pretty, smart friend Alea left Calgary for Vancouver, then Korea, then England.
For a long long time.
I'm sad, but she is going to have an amazing experience and the next five years are going to be sweet-as.
Keep up with her travels at to-rise.blogspot.com. that is if she ever updates it.
or skype.
skype is good.
facebook works pretty well too...
I'm sure this isn't the last we have seen of Alea in Canada.
Love you!
