Blazers & Outwear

Lately I’ve been on a shopping binge and show no sign of stopping. Which is horrible because my husband & I are off to Vegas next week and I should be saving money for all the shows/dinners/shopping. So alas, I am putting a crease-fire on my credit card. I’ve been eyeing these items for when I get back from Vegas however…

Blank Vegan Leather Leggings in black. Loving them because I need something to spice up my wardrobe and this is just the ticket. Plus, they’re cropping which means they’re perfect regular length for me with my stumps for legs.

I spent way too much money this weekend. To hide my guilt and shame, I’ve decided against telling you what the prices are. Instead, here’s what I bought:

1) Talula Shrunken Exeter Blazer in black from Aritzia

I know, everyone and their momma has one of these. But I don’t have a single blazer in my closet and I figured this is the easiest way to look put together without actually being so. Shrunken blazer because at 5’2″, my short stubby legs hated the regular one.

2) Talula Silk Tank in both Whitecap Grey and Cockatoo from Aritzia

in Whitecap Grey

Just a couple basic tanks, one in a neutral and one in a kicky mint green.

3) Monk & Lou Blazer in cream from Plenty

Something to dress up my summer wardrobe as well as, again, fake that whole “put together” look. I’m not 100% sure about this one and may end up returning it later on this week.

4) Vero Moda Blake 2/4 tank in Shiny Cobalt from Plenty

in Shiny Cobalt (what's so shiny about it?)

It was the colour that attracted me to this. Couldn’t help it. Lately I’ve really been into this bright blue colour lately. (But for some reason, that monologue that Miranda Priestly spouts off keeps running through my head.) I’m also on the fence about this purchase.

5) Big Blue Jessica Ankle Thin Jeggings from Plenty

in black rather than blue

I know, I know. The dreaded J word: jegging. But they’re so soft and comfortable and don’t look like denim. I’m hoping to be able to wear them to the work with some cute heels. Of course, on me, they’re just regular length jeggings and not ankle length.

That’s it! Of course, it doesn’t look like a lot,… until I see my Visa bill next month.
