Nightfall

by Jen on Monday, September 24, 2012

Now that it's starting to get dark significantly earlier, it can be a bit stressful to find the time to take blog photos during the hours of natural light. That's why I was so happy to have stumbled upon this back up spot last week for when the days are too packed; although the area is a little bit sketchy (an old homeless man kindly told me during the shoot that my sweater made me looked pregnant), the artificial light actually does quite well at illuminating clothing... especially these semi-shiny trousers.
Wearing: Aritzia sweater, YesStyle blouse, H&M trousers, vintage Bally bag, Zara shoes (similar), Flashy Era necklace (c/o boticca)

That's a great spot for light! I love the coated trousers and you styled them with neutrals so the pants could be the star!

Gorgeous! I know EXACTLY where you are too (Creeper alert?) ;)

The old homeless man comment made me laugh, they honestly are the funniest people in our city, aren't they?

Hope you have a fantastic week, Jen! xo

The light is great for night shots, Jen! I tried on that sweater as Aritzia a few weeks ago but it looked horrible. It looks great on you though!

I know the feeling. That is the perfect spot for night time photos (besides the homeless guy).

Gah, I have such a panic when people see me taking photos! You are a braver woman than I... :) In other news, your outfit is SO cute. Love it.

I don't know why I never thought to leave a blouse untucked underneath a sweater! Will definitely have to try this out after seeing your outfit.

It's so different to see an outfit post at night, but I like it!

by Caroline on September 24, 2012 at 12:55 PM. #

Haha as if you could EVER look pregnant, you're so tiny! What a freak. Homeless vagrants aside, this spot does do the trick wonderfully. Loving this chic look on you love, those pants are amazing!

Oh my gosh, the old homeless man! That's hilarious! I cannot imagine you looking anywhere near pregnant, you tiny thing, but that is funny nonetheless! Loving your shoes & pants, lady!

by Kate on September 24, 2012 at 1:31 PM. #

I love this look! The pants are gorgeous and are already on my wishlist!
And you definitely do not look pregnant in that sweater!! Too funny :)

Love your blog! You seem to buy a lot from Yesstyle - what is the sizing like (i.e. is it super small because it's based in Asia). I wear a size xs from Club Monaco - you think I should order a size small from Yesstyle? Thanks!

I absolutely love the layering of such a detailed blouse with that sweater.

I can totally relate! I have trouble finding places to take outfit photos after work, too, since it's usually dark by the time I get out of the office now. I'm even considering getting up super early (5 or 6 am??) to get some outfit photos in during the work week.

Love this outfit... you're getting me excited for layering and fall! :)

Love, S

I love the different feel and look of these night shots! The textured darkness of your pants perfectly fit the mood too.

I love the shoes and the sweater. Very cute. I am having major trouble finding time to take my pics during the daylight hours now that they end so much earlier...
