This week was quite a rollercoaster, with incredible heat that caused power blockouts, followed by a crazy windstorm that caused city-wide damage and further blockouts (for 13 hours in my area, but even longer 5 minutes away, where my parents were). Also, it was Lil' Brigs #2's first two days at childcare. With a few hours to myself (I thought it'd be more, but housework sadly does not take care of itself), I managed to squeeze in some shopping in an actual brick & mortar store! Too many tempting offerings at Scanlan & Theodore!
Isn't this painting absolutely gorgeous?!? My sister painted it and gave it to Lil' Brigs 2 for Xmas (Lil' Brigs 1 pictured here, trying to hitch a ride on the hot air balloon)

I have been searching for a nice chambray shirt for years. Couldn't decide between this beautifully soft and fluid (tencel) denim shirt (epaulettes are a weakness of mine), and the one below. The one below was a definite, but I caved and bought this one too)
Love the neutral colour of this chambray, the cut (sadly one size too big, but if I tuck it in properly will still look good). These pants were too big for me, but I was just trying them on as I was wearing a dress that day, plus I have these jeans in my size at home (and also in 4 other colours now! Yikes!)
Also couldn't resist this cotton/silk shirt dress (not a very good pic), love a good shirt dress, they're so easy to just throw on and get out the door...
My favourite pair of low boyfriend jeans, originally purchased in black, then added a navy/ink pair, then white, and then in the last few days, in the red and cobalt blue (have been after a red and cobalt pair of pants/jeans for years!)

I can't believe it's been 10 years already! I remember it well! We have family in Florida too.
ReplyDeleteAh! I thought you'd like that chambray shirt, and can definitely picture it on you ;)
The little ones aren't quite at school age, my son will be 2 in May , and my daughter will be 4 (well, on the same day, they have the same birthday). So it's 'childcare' for my son, and 'Early Learning Centre' (kinda like pre-preschool) for my daughter :)
