@ Church this Sunday

Sunday I was the Gunner Girls wearing their groovy clothes! I like Melanie's combo because it looks so relaxed and easy to do~blue jeans with a big top that's tied up at the side. Ellen wore black shorts, back tank top with  a dark green button up top over the whole outfit. Mrs Gunner wore a wavy green floral print dress with a white shawl over her shoulders. It's amazing how a shawl/scarf can add a bit of class to an outfit. Annabelle, even though one of the youngest, rocked out in a print top with a mini denim vest over it.

This weeks randoms ~ jewelry and makeup

On Wednesday I went to Maria's brithday and saw these great bracelets. I like that combo ~ one with heaps of pearls hanging from it contrasted with the other smooth and orderly bracelet right next to it. 

Dancing at Annies

This is what I wore out on Friday night to Annies ~ Black skinny jeans, a red tank top and a pink, size 22 shirt from Kmart. I know it's REALLY big for me but my friend Nauvoo had an idea on how to make it look better. 
Tie a knot in the back!
So that's what I did (with her help) and I gotta say that it really did look good! Check it out from the back!

What I wore to trabajo today!

Today I went into work with a black skirt, heels and a sea-farer inspired shirt. I just wore the same shirt that I wore to Catherine's lunch in Jan. I think it's ok mixing and matching as long as you don't do a repeat mix in a close space of time. (that's when people might notice)
I found this old bracelet in our garage in our sewing supplies! In all that fabric I found a little bracelet! This is what happens when you clean your home~you find random stuff that you didn't know existed, or you find stuff you were looking for 3 months ago!

What on earth did I wear today?

Today, as I was getting ready for Bible studies - I had to figure out what to wear. I just came back from walking our energetic dog, hungry and thirsty - I kinda looked like a drunk guinea pig. I didn't care what I wore - just as long as I didn't smell too bad at the meeting.
I kept my exercise bottoms of tight 3/4 pants and sneakers. Then I found an old flannel shirt that they had on sale last year at the supermarket; it's the perfect thing! It's big, long, keeps me warm and totally bogan. It felt really good to throw on at the time, but now just hours after the meeting, I'm thinking that I should restrict this shirt's exposure to just the family members at home.

What to wear to an informal meeting

What do you wear to an informal meeting on a Monday night. I wanted to look different but still formal in a way for the Toastmasters Exec meeting. I threw on a pair of black pants and a funny yellow to in my drawer. I havn't really worn it before; the top is cut at an angle but is then finished with a skirt-like design to make the top even again. It was kinda cold and raining so I threw on a pair of arm warmers~a different but not to exposing outfit

Sat Night

On Saturday night Ellen and I made it into town (even though we were both knackerd). It's hard to look good when you're exhausted ~ but I think we did pretty good! Ellen wore a short spaghetti strap floral print dress. I wore a white dress that had layered sleeves with black trimming. 
Earlier in the night Ellen had a black dress on that gathered in at the waist. I think her heavy duty worker glasses topped off the outfit.

What I wore yesterday

This is what I wore to trabajo today! I found an old pair of gray pants (that sill fitted me) and threw on a striped blue and white top. With just those two - I resembled a pirate. So I found an oversized button up top (with a matching belt) and threw it on. I only buttoned it up to where the belt sat - too much gloomy colors can make you feel gloomy too. I also cuffed the sleeves because they were way to long for my arms.

Bikinis!

I got these postcards from Sports Scene in Yeperenye a couple weeks ago (I think I got the store right). I just scribbled on them giving my own coments on the outfits. Saves time typing!

What I wore this morning ~ gym!

Yeah, I went to the gym this morning and wore this. I thought it looked alright for the morning session-no one should be fully awake at that time with no coffee right? Still, I wore an old pair of blue shorts with a groovy stripy man shirt. I usually get guy shirts to sleep in because they are the perfect substitute pajamas. And I'm sure if you get the right kind of guy shirt, they can look good at the gym too!

Yesterday's Church

We had a great time trying to figure out what to wear to Church yesterday. She didn't want to loose her shorts so we had to work with making her top look more appropriate. I found this yellow sleeveless shirt in her clothes and thought that she could match it with her white throw-over.
I thought that the yellow top looked great, when she pulled out a more colorful print top. Now I think that was very good! More color the better~and it helped draw the eyes away from those old denim shorts.

Yesterday at work and town

I went to work in this outfit yesterday! I tried to be more inventive today by wearing a 'base' of black pants, a white top with an old brown vest I got about 5 years ago. I also added a little jewelry - a choker necklace with a large green pendant hanging. My little sister helped me put the outfit together that morning (brain not functioning)

Screen Printing

 Last night  I went to a screen printing class with the Red Hot Arts Center ~ and it was heaps of fun. I really liked how the folks there came up with their designs for their shirt. This is my design to throw on my shirt-just a face of a girl.
 This was a great intricate design that has the text 'seed'. I think that it's cute because it has a shape of a seed/waterdrop with roots and the signs of a growing plant from the top. It's great artwork to put on a shirt - and she made two of them! It's going to be a great couple shirt.

Sunday Multicultural Mass - India!

Last Sunday's Mass (27 Feb 2011) was a multi cultural mass! The Indian's held the mass and I really wanted to see what everyone was wearing! A lot of the ladies were wearing Sari's and Churidar's that looked exceedingly graceful.
