Outfit: A Day in the Heat!

Follow @caraallover

Welcome. In case you forgot, I'm Cara. Breathe into your paper bag and remain calm, because it is me - with straight hair. I walked on the wild side today and put some effort into my appearance for a date night out! I do this so rarely because a) it takes too long, b) it damages my hair c) it rarely looks good and d) if it does look good, I step outside and all my hard work turns into Donna Summer circa 1970. No good. Today, though, I'm quite satisfied!I wore this outfit with new gladiators and enjoyed a chicken wrap and cheesecake for dessert. What? Blogs are supposed to be overly-detailed aren't they? Hope all your weekends were eventful and/or relaxing :)

Howdy folks. Welcome to a post about one of my favourite outfits. It's not really that great of an outfit, but I always remember it as the outfit I wore on my bf and I's second date. We went to Cornerstone Cafe for cinnamon buns & tea, and then saw "Horrible Bosses." Did you just get some crackers to go with that cheese?

On a more important note, both this top and vest were approximately $10 at the Garage Outlet. Me and my mom always hit up the outlets at the end of the summer for the best summer basics. They're on sale x5. It's definitely my favourite cost-efficient shopping tip! 

This is still one of my favourite combos that I choose to wear over and over - do you have any outfits like that?

Greetings. I'm sorry, but I didn't wear this dress today. I cheated. I wore it last weekend. But forgot to show it off! I got it from the store I talk about all the time - Skirt - and it was super cheap because it's missing a button or 2. Now that I'm looking at the pictures, it looks a little scandalous. What with the tattoo peaking through the cut-out and all, but meh. I'm young, right? Another tidbit of info; the second I decided to go outside and take pictures, it began raining and thunder-storming. Canada, eh?

Today's Outfit: More Stripes

Finally! Proof that I am a crazy stripe woman! That's really all that I can say about my fetish at this moment. This dress from Forever 21 is easily my new favourite piece in my spring wardrobe. It's uber-soft, stretchy, comfy, and most of all - it's a maxi dress that goes to my toes. Being 5'9 means most maxis hit halfway between knees and ankles, and it makes me look...weird. It is said that horizontal stripes give the illusion that you're wider, which is usually a big fat fashion NO, but rules were made to be broken. It is true love, me and this dress, and you'll be seeing a lot more of it I'm sure. It's too bad that it was so windy during this shoot that you can't make out the beautiful blossom a-bloomin' on my trees, but enjoy :)
