day 15 // a case of the blahs

February 16, 2011

I was having an “icky” day today and if it were under normal circumstances, then I would have never taken an outfit photo (shhh don’t tell my blog readers!). I think it’s because I couldn’t find a tank to wear underneath this sheer blouse, so I improvised with a nude coloured spanx tank. Do you know how uncomfortable spanx are? With jeans on? At the office for 8 hours? Yeah, definite case of the outfit blahs.
Do you ever plan an outfit and then end up feeling uncomfortable in it?

Hopefully the rain stops and I can take outfit photos outside again tomorrow.

HA! Who am I kidding? I live in Raincouver.

    Oh totally know what you mean, but you know what? No one else ever does! I love this quirky outfit, the print, the pin, the colors! It's so fun! Hope you feel a little cheerier soon 🙂

    Oh and I love "Raincouver" that's a lot better than Vantucky, guess Vancouver, WA is full of hicks? Blegh anyway only a few more months..

    That happens to me frequently, I plan outfits but just end up wanting to change to feel more comfortable. Love that blazer though! I've been looking to buy more blazers..maybe a cream/pale pink one!

    In reply to your comment..hmm I would say that Black Swan was worth watching I guess? haha I really don't know. It was nothing like anything I've watched before. It was thrilling, very suspenseful and I was definitely mind-boggled. It was just super strange. Natalie Portman was a really good actress. If you do watch it, you must watch it with a friend. I do not recommend you watch by yourself. LOL!

    Your expression in the second photo cracks me up. It's like you're contemplating how uncomfortable you are and thinking "Hmm Spanx tank…yeah, no."

  • Marie a la Mode February 16, 2011 at 7:37 pm

    That happens to me but more so with makeup. Like today I have bright bright bright blue eye shadow on and at work I looked in the mirror and thought, "What was I thinking???" lol It just doesn't go with what I'm wearing today!

    I love the flower with the leopard print! Very pretty!

    oh ya, of course. If it's really bad, I buy a new outfit – i work in a clothing store – though that's not a great habit to get into, I know!
    LOVE the look of this oufit on you, though.

    The uncomfortable outfit does happen sometimes, have to say. But in your case, although not feeling fab you do look lovely! I like the colour of that blazer.

    I find RW&Co and Smart set have great camisoles in lots of colours that I wear under sheer items, they might be a little more comfy!

  • Sophie February 16, 2011 at 10:05 pm

    you wouldnt know that you look uncomfortable! you look gorgeous. loving that blazer!

  • Melissa February 17, 2011 at 2:45 am

    I really like this colour combo. Uncomfy or not you look adorable.

    Urgh, I hate those days when you leave the house unsatisfied with something outfit-related. Really though, you paired the brooch amazingly with the blazer and the leopard print top. I am loving these daily posts! Can you continue your challenge for March, pretty please?

    It certainly doesn't show that you look uncomfortable, you look great! Loving the daily blog updates, although I know how much work goes into them!

    P.S. do you have naturally curly hair or do you use a curling iron? It's gorgeous!
