Casual Tuesdays

I live in a tiny apartment in the middle of Centretown. The location is fabulous - walking distance to everything I could ever need. However, it's only downside is it happens to be right across the street from a building that doesn't believe construction should happen during daylight hours. Instead, they think it's entirely appropriate to chainsaw at 12:30am. Not only is it creepy, but it really cuts into the 8+ hours of sleep I require to not be a gremlin.

This outfit came from a couple of weeks back when the construction was particularly loud and I only managed to clock five hours max. I was the prickliest of gremlins when the alarm went off at 7:30AM. As I leafed through my closet, every ounce of my being was telling me that dress clothes were not the way to go.

Thankfully, all of the directors in our office were at a retreat, so I deemed it to be casual Tuesday, threw my hair back and wore denim bermudas. It was suddenly a beautiful day.



I threw on the salmon coloured tank to give this monochromatic look the pop of summer it deserved.

If only casual Tuesdays could be a real weekly occurrence - especially since my four-day work-week forces me to miss out on casual Fridays. Oh well, c'est la vie.

  1. I love how you added the espadrilles and salmon top to make the outfit pop! I'm such a monster (or gremlin!) if I don't get my 7 hrs so construction would not be cutting it for me- I would be the complaining neighbour!
