first time outdoor pics!

by Jen on Monday, February 1, 2010



It was a beautiful night so my boyfriend decided to take me outside to take our photos :) I've started becoming a bit more relaxed in front of the camera thanks to his hilarity and patience when it comes to capturing what I am wearing (Thanks sweetheart!).



Scored these studded beauties at Zara the other day for $39.99! I've always wanted a pair of sandals that are a bit more edgy but didn't want to spend too much on something that is as trendy as these are. The price was right for these and I actually think they will be incorporated into my outfits more than I initially thought they would be.

The dress is from Zara in Barcelona when I went this summer. Can I say that the Zara stores in Europe trump the ones we have in Vancouver by far?! Oh well.. I am thankful for the two we have and their never-failing providing of affordable, fashionable items.

Oh, one more thing. This Teenflo boyfriend blazer was purchased 3 summers ago on a whim in a consignment shop for $35! It is 44% wool (warm!), fully lined with single button closure. I almost didn't buy it because I was looking for one for a presentation and it was a bit big. Something told me to buy it anyway, and good thing I did. Who knew that it would become my most-loved and worn boyfriend blazer.






Wearing: Teenflo blazer, Zara silk tunic, Zara shoes, scarf and tights of unknown (forgotten) origin

KILLER shoes, can't wait to see them incorporated into more outfits! So unfortunately true about the European Zaras. When I was in Spain a few years ago, I practically went bankrupt in that store. EVERYTHING was fabulous. The one we have in Dc is okay, but not at all a must-stop.
