A Life On Canvas: un citron

Salut tout le monde. Aujourd'hui, le mot prefere est "de citron".

This post will be a little bit different from previous because ... not all of them will be iPhone quality! My slow progress toward becoming a legitimate fashion blogger. Maybe I'll start posting individual outfit posts instead of my summarized version--very unlikely.

This week's outfits!

Skirt Nordstrom Rack//Shoes Gap//Top From France//Locket Necklace Thrifted//Jacket Thrifted

Beginning the summary with the least interesting outfit. The only highlight is that I was able to savor the 50 degree weather that day.

Shoes Marshalls//Tights Target//Socks Express//Dress H&M//Sweater French Connection//Necklace Gifted from China

I prefer wearing dresses and skirts over wearing pants, but I can't do it as often in winter. I do a tights-knee-high-sock combination when I feel dangerous and want to bear my legs to the weather. I'm your typical bad girl, what can I say. Also, I love this dress. The design is a funky tribal print and the colors are neutral so the dress matches everything. Lastly, it was a $6 find. Call me the bargain queen (but seriously, please do).

Dress Anthropologie//Tights American Apparel//Shoes Shoemint

I work in essentially a green house. It's so funny unless you're the guy who has to rake the floor (not a joke). The top floor has beautiful lighting because of the glass ceiling (it's real, ladies). My favorite outfits during the winter is an over-sized sweater dress and tights. To lessen the frump, I added these lace-up booties. I waited a year before I discovered my ideal pair on Shoemint. I am really particular about the shoes I buy. I have a clear idea in my head about the style of shoes I want (from color, material, and style) and I only buy a pair of shoes until they're perfect. This extensive process does not minimize my vast shoe collect (I need help).

Hat H&M//Dress & Shoes Old Navy//Necklace Brandy Melville

Has anyone checked out the amazing clothing selection at Old Navy? I had the lowest expectations walking into that store, but I ended up with a shamefully huge haul. This photo does not truly capture the beauty in this dress. I had my Anthropologie coworker quickly snap this shot despite an onslaught of customers surrounding her (merci Nicole!). Also, the shoes are not seen in this photo, but they're ankle-high Chelsea boots. Bought these babes for $12. That's right!

Jacket Thrifted//Purse UO//Shoes Old Navy//Pants American Apparel//Ring F21//Top Marshalls//Belt Thrfited

Non-phone photos! The main reason I don't carry my DSLR around is because its bulky. It is a pain to lug around and I don't want to be that person who wears it around their neck. This bag is great. It's just big enough to hold my camera without being too over-size or cumbersome (thank you, Jen). I love the last photo. My friends and I had great timing in catching the sunset over the Longfellow Bridge.
