Repetition




Shirt - Jacob; Tank - Smart Set; Pants - Forever 21; Heels - Aldo

This outfit is a combination of two that were posted last week (seen here and here) and this repetition was no accident. I was testing out possible outfits for Europe and decided to combine a few of my favourite pieces. After running errands and grabbing coffee with a friend I decided that this look would was packable.

This weekend was a great mix of productivity and relaxation. On Saturday, I ran around crossing errands and items off my to do list, and doing multiple loads of laundry. Once everything was clean (and I do mean everything), I laid out all of the clothes I wanted to take with me, and I evaluated and edited to figure out what I had and what I needed - I was very surprised to learn that I only owned one plain black t-shirt! Clearly, shopping had to happen.

The next morning I was up bright and early to pick up a journal at Chapters and then it was off to Old Navy to stock up on plain t-shirts (which only ended up being $5 each - obviously it was meant to be!). After re-evaluating my choices (all black and white with a few splashes of blue and the purple jeans, to make dressing easy) I packed everything into my suitcase and began the final countdown - only a few hours to go!

Hope you had a fabulous weekend!

  3. I love packing for vacay and figuring out ways to remix (it's the unpacking I don't like!) This is such a funky outfit, those purple pants are so fab! Laundry seems to be the never ending chore doesn't it, I don't know how mothers do it!
