leopard... again

can you believe it? i am posting an outfit! it has been almost a month since my last outfit post, which is sad 'cause i had quite a few outfits i had planned on blogging (like the neon pink jeans i only wore a few times before spilling red wine on them.  7 washes later i've declared defeat.), but i just couldn't find the time to take the photos.  until today.

since i've decided to transition to zero waste, i've also decided to cut back on shopping.  save money & reduce my consumption.  reduced consumption means reduced waste.  it actually hasn't been as hard as i thought!  this also means i will be finding new ways to wear old things (top worn here & here). 

p.s. any tips on removing red wine stains???

a few days ago we had such NICE weather. then this storm hit and its been cold! gross. i want to wear a dress or skirt without tights please! i wore this outfit to a fashion show last friday.  the show was.. pretty ridic.  if i wanted to go to a club i'd go to one.  but i don't want to go to a club.  so we left early.

so even though the event was a bad idea, but my outfit was a good one!  half way through this hectic week, yay!

tgif (more leopard in my closet)

i really hate the whole "tgif" thing, but seriously i'm so happy its friday! it was such a rough week and i only worked 4 days too!  dog fight + two vet trips + day and a half long crazy shoot makes me tired.  anywayssss, i've been obsessing over this bb dakota top ever since we shot it... back in november, and i finally decided to get it!

btw - bb dakota is one of our new clients at work and just launched their new e-comm site a few months ago!  you should definitely check out the site if you haven't already!  spring is up (and i've got a quite a few things i want!) and holiday is on sale!

p.s. now that i have this top, i'm only a pair of pants away from being able to wear an entire leopard outfit!

getting christmas-y

i felt very festive in my red, green and white plaid shirt, which seemed appropriate since the remainder of my christmas ornaments arrived in the mail and i could finish decorating my tree!
