Just one day

Holiday day Holiday day Holiday day! I'm packed and ready to go! I've unplugged everything and checked that the oven is off 5 times!

feb 10 2011

Today, in approximately 8 hours, the Gentleman Caller and I are hitting the road! Whoo! We are going to go shopping at the West Ed Mall (I want to go touch the pretty things at Anthroplogie!), bob around in the wave pool, have a beer at a pub, have Mexican food, meet up with his family, go to the farmers market and most of all relax!
cardigan & suede skirt: Ricki's
top: Joe Fresh
tights: We Love Colours
shoes: Fly London

I usually don't take pictures in the morning because I have a bleary-eyed look and because I'm not a morning person, everything that has to happen is on a schedule! So much so that if I miss crossing the street at the right light I'm late. Confession time: usually I take pictures when I get home from work and then post one day behind. It works way better for my sanity but this week got away from me...

Today I am thankful for clear roads and little cars that are good on gas so that we can go on a mini-holiday!

Ah, the West Ed Mall! Fantastic! Hmm, and now, for some reason, I have "Hurtin' Albertan" in my head...

The tan skirt is a beautiful break in the lines of blue and black, and wonderfully unexpected.

Have a great time!
And "Hurtin' Albertan" just came on the radio! It's a sign! I don't know of what, but it's a sign.

Oooh, have a great time! You look terrific in this outfit and don't look remotely bleary-eyed. And I think that it's fine that you post one day behind on the outfits. I do that regularly. =)

Be safe! Have fun!

What super fun colors in this outfit! So pretty. I'm excited for you and your trip!
Thanks ladies, your kindness never ceases to amaze!
Katie: I have never heard Hurtin' Albertan! Clearly this is something that needs to be rectified immediately!

Have fun! I love road trips! I've never been to the west Edmonton mall and I feel like I'm missing out on a Canadian rite of passage...
I love your teal and tan combo!

I love this! You reminded me I have almost the same elements and I think they need some wearing love!

Great color ideas... I also love black, but who doesn't? Also, thanks for your comment and have a happy Valentine's day!

Super cute!!! The skirt is fabulous and I love the colors! And don't worry... I sometimes take all my outfit shots on Sunday afternoon and post them through the week. (But I don't do them all that way, and since starting my blog, I go out more dressed up and take pictures on the day I wear them... I still don't post them until later a lot of the time... I'm just happy when I have a day where I can wear an outfit for the whole day!) :)
