Layin' Low Monday

Monday down, Tuesday to go - I'm counting the days until I'm off again. Three whole days...
I haven't had 3 days in a row off since Christmas!


  • Blouse - Tabi, consignment; last seen here (5th outfit) during the weekend with the out-laws
  • Skirt - Vero Moda, thrifted; last worn here (2nd outfit) for a weekend shop
  • Shoes - Franco Sarto, consignment; last seen here in late April with the Spanish ladies dress


I wasn't entirely happy with the silhouette of this outfit, despite tying the blouse at the waist. Too much fullness all over, but meh, it was fine for a day when I just wanted to keep my brain in vacation mode. It always feels like cheating in this blouse - I swear, it's just like a pajama top.
One more day of my loosey-goosey May capsule, and I'm probably not going to keep this skirt. It's too big, so I have to keep the waist covered (and it spins when I wear it). I only paid $6.00 for it, and this is its 3rd wear. I'm good with $2/wear.

The stuff:
I realized just now that I still have my ring on.


  • Earrings - Stella & Dot, consignment
  • Ring - Uffizi Gallery gift shop


These shoes are lovely and comfy - and such a cool colour. Also, bows!

  1. I do love green Sheila - it's my favourite colour and even if you wore a green sack I'm sure it would look good on you!

    I like this outfit and I'm sorry about the skirt - don't you like it enough to alter it or are you not handy with a needle - like me?

    1. Hey, Veronica! Thank you so much. I don't care about the skirt enough to alter it, but even if I did, I probably wouldn't. I can sew but just can't be bothered. I'd rather pass it along to someone else.

  4. I love this pyjama-esque top, but agree that the skirt could look better. It does look bulky and surely if it's too big, it has to go.

  6. I can imagine wearing this same outfit - I like it. But I do understand what you say.
    What did you do to your hair ? It looks amazing.

    1. I'm growing my hair out - it's been really short for a really long time. Right now, I'm just roughing it up with some putty. It'll be a medium shag cut when it's grown out (which will probably take a year).
