A Remix of Sorts




I wear this dress a lot. And for some reason I never post pics of it. So here they are! The first set is from when we went camping on Hornby Island. The other two times are just random days, I suppose. Tell me: which way do you like it best?

Also note: in the first set of pics, the daisy chain my husband made. Put that man in a field of daises and he compulsively makes daisy chains! And he's much better at it then I am! Maybe I shouldn't be sharing this information?

Also, the meshing of photos in the first pic is a beach on Hornby and some flowers also from Hornby. Ah, how I want to go back!!

outfit 1:

dress, kensie: from a friend
glasses, vera wang via clearlycontacts.ca

Is it just me or does there seem to be a definite summer time slump in the blogging world? I know I'm feeling it.

  6. Awww, hubby flower necklaces! I most definitely love the last photo the best, because I'm really into pattern play with the striped cardigan. Perfect!

    Oh yes, I am really being lazy with my blog. I mean I went eleven days without an update? I could kick myself! It's just so hot and who wants to be on the computer when they can be at the lake? Ahhhh.

    Cheyne.

  7. Hmmmm. I think my favourite is the one with the vest. But that might just be because I love your vest. Have I mentioned that? About your vest? The fact that I love it? Because I do. I love your vest.

  8. You know I vote instantly for anything involving that vest. My love for it hath not waned.

    And yes, there is a definite slump in the blogging world come summer time. There's so much daylight and so many more things to do! It'd be a waste to spend too much time on the internet...unless you're on an odd schedule and an insomniac to boot like myself I can imagine free time is scarce.

  11. I want to have a passionate love affair with that vest. Or maybe a long lived marriage with it. Either way, it's a work of art and I couldn't imagine a better person wearing it. LOVEE. And your dress is tres chic too ;) you're a hot momma :)

  20. I love all three looks, but if I have to pick one, I'll go with the first because I like the long necklace and cardigan with the dress.

    Re summer slowness, I've had to cut back blogging because of other commitments, and I've noticed that everyone else seems to be doing the same!

  21. You've styled this dress so differently each time, great remix!! I think I like the first one best, you know how I feel about cowboy boots :) But they are spectacular!! Great post!!
