In The Air

March 19, 2010

Since we switched our clocks last week, we’ve noticed such an apparent change in the weather. The fact that it stays bright until well after 6 (these photos were taken at about half past 5) is such a nice change to the 4pm nights we’re so used to in the winter.

I found this skirt at Winners (Canadian equivalent of TJ Maxx, maybe?) the other day! It was definitely an unexpected find as I usually go there for the shoes. I adore the flaring out of the hem and of course the print.

Oh, and please excuse the paleless of my legs… I don’t naturally tan much and I spent my last summer on a missions trip in which I wore long pants so I didn’t get a chance.

P.S. Remember my peacock dress from last post, and how I said it had a Forever 21-esque quality about it? Well, guess what… the dress that I paid over $70 for (yes, the exact dress, down to the placement of the feathers!), showed up on the Forever 21 website a few days after I bought it… for a mere $27! Nothing I could do about it now, but can you imagine! I also found flats at this said boutique that were selling in India for 200 rupees (about $5) selling for $110! Needless to say I won’t be stopping in there much anymore.

Wearing: H&M Chambray shirt, Necessary Objects zebra print skirt, ASOS vintage style necklace

    omigosh! I saw your dress on F21 and didn’t want to say anything…I thought F21 had knocked off whichever place the boutique bought it from, but it very well could have been the other way around. Yikes!

    Anyways, love this print skirt with the denim. I’ve seen a lot of denim tops and dresses at H&M and am tempted to get one. And seriously you don’t have to apologize for the pale legs…I’ve been applying layers and layers of self tanner to no avail.
