Rain, Rain Go Away

Yesterday was so busy. All morning long we went door to door with Circle K handing out flyers for our annual city-wide food drive. Of course it was incredibly beautiful all week long, and then the day we plan to go do charity work its gray, cold and rainy. Thanks weather. Either way though, it was fun and I managed to get some good exercise in. After that it was an afernoon full of group meetings and catching up on homework. Yay for weekends.

I am also unsure of why everything was underlined all of a sudden.

Worn Tues, Mar. 9th:

vest - H&M (2008)
tee - F21 (2009)
earrings - Flea Market (2008)
"pearls" - Ardene (2006)
jeans - Parasuco for Smart Set (2008)
flats - Payless (2007)

I bought these earrings from a crazy gypsy woman at the Pickering Flea Market. Her booth is SO sparkly you can see it from waaay down the crowded hallway, and every time I go she tells me she's closing down and everything has to go. I know its her selling tool or whatever, but I definitely use it to (what i *think* is at least) my advantage. I ended up getting two pairs for 10$, and considering the fake bling they have going on, I thought that was a pretty sweet deal.
I should probably pay them another visit before I graduate in June and move back to Ottawa! 4 hours is kind of far to travel for cheap jewelry lol.

I feel like I have been completely spoiled with all the nice weather we've been having. Today it was ACTUALLY warm enough to go out in a blazer with a little hidden cardi underneath (that post will come eventually!). But anyways, that's saying a lot. I'm the individual who brings a sweater when it's 30 degrees** outside, so we're talking nice.

Worn Mon, Mar 8th:

jacket - Danier (Thrifted 2008)
button up - yde (2009)
long sleeved tee - F21 (2009)
belt - Costa Blanca (2009)
jeans - Guess (2007)
flats - Aldo (2009)

This outfit actually came about because I'm out of clean clothes. A lot of my outfits this week are kind of a random jumble. But anyhoo, I thrifted this jacket way back in the fall of 2008 and had NEVER worn it. So while it's kind of an off combination, I thought it went enough to wear the jacket.

And it actually worked out quite well that I was in jeans and flats considering this is what transpired at Circle K that day:
Good Times.

**EDIT: Celsius! I should probably start specifying, eh? (That's the Canadian in me coming out!) So 10 is around 50 and 30 would be close to 86 Fahrenheit.

Success!!

This has been an incredibly wonderful weekend! Let me just take a few seconds to be proudly Canadian and congratulate our boys! They had us scared for a second there, but following in the footsteps of our super-talented ladies, we won the Gold :) GO CANADA GO!

And to follow up with more good news, our fundraiser last night was a great success (considering all the competition!). Food was delicious, dancing was fun, and I even had the chance to meet our new district governor for Circle K. Good Times.

tee - Smart Set (2008)
skinnies - F21 (2009)
belt - Value Village (2010)
boots - GMa's (mine since 2009)

There's a milo kitten in my window... he was trying to hide. For some reason he's terrified of the camera flash... that's my special boy!
Anyhoo, i LOVE this sweater. Every time I wear it I can't help but think of Archie Andrews or Danny Zucko at the end of grease... the only thing that would make it more perfect is if it were an "R" for Riverdale or Rydell :)

Thanks to everyone who came out! Much Love!
