Stockholming Myself, day 20

Had a bit of an issue with the camera batteries running out yesterday. No post due to that. Sorry.

Today's outfit is Reitmans jeans, Old Navy exercise top (its that breathable fabric stuff). It's comfy, I wasn't going for pretty today. I also forgot to shuck the shoes for the view of teh socks. But I only took 1 picture, so.

Gotta tell ya, I'm kinda worn out today. Not really feeling it. Hoping to get back into the swing of things tomorrow.

Stockholming Myself, day 19

It's day 19!

Why's that exciting? Not really sure. Gotta have something to get excited about today tho, it's been a pretty boring day so far. I mean, twitter's had some pretty good conversations, and I'm fairly certain I'm addicted to Words With Friends on my phone, but... pretty boring thus far.

So here's day 19. I've got a 6pm to 1am inventory shift at work. I've located my mp3 player (yes, it's separate from my iphone... and?), and am ready and raring to go. Hence the outfit. No work shirt/pants today since I'm not going to be customer-interactive today.

This is another of my Sesame Street shirts. I have a third one, but it's gone awol. My grungy jeans are, again, from Reitmans. The sandals are Crocs (WHAT! they're comfy, AND CUTE because they've got a CLOTH upper. Screw Y'all Crocs haters, that's what I say! [*meep* don't hate me!])

Also realized after taking this pic that, uh, I didn't do my hair yet today. Sorry.

So I've seen a bit of a drop-off with the Stockholming group. Wondering where people are! Stop having such busy lives! Or something. I dunno. I miss you! Come BAAAAAACK!

Stockholming Myself, day 18

I bought two dresses yesterday! This one (also comes in reds/yellows and pinks/purples) and another which I'll show off if the weather ever gets back to nice. It's snowing today, so I'm not impressed. Stupid Canadian weather. Both are from Wal-Mart. The dress is strapless, hence the top, and a nice light gauzy material, so it's very flowy. I like the look of it with my jeans, but am only wearing the jeans because I apparently lost my black calf-length leggings. Does anyone know where I can get more?

I really like this dress on, but the pictures don't do it any justice. Or me, no justice for me, either. Also, no socks in today's pic because I have a feeling it would just look too gaudy.

It's the last day of casual weekend at work, though, so I'm making the most of it! See ya later!

Stockholming Myself, day 17

Decided to be adventurous and wear capris today. Technically they're just my jeans rolled up to look like capris, since I don't have any. This is my "I'm not sure I really like how this looks" face.

Black hoodie - Wal Mart. Jeans - Reitmans. Tank - AdditionElle+. Cute shoes - Crocs.

It's a late post, but I was out and about all day, working and shopping and the like, so, sorry. Here ya go anyways.

Stockholming Myself, day 16

Shirt: Penningtons. Jeans: Reitmans. Socks: mismatched. That's all I have to say about today's outfit.

When TJ mentioned yesterday that she'd downloaded the Lose It! iPhone app, I decided to try it too (lemming, thy name is Kristy... not that I'm calling TJ a lemming, but I'd better stop while my hole is only a few feet deep, or before I have to add salt to my foot). Like TJ, I checked to see where the BMI says that I should be at a normal body weight. Apparently, for me to get to the extreme high end of this "normal weight" I'd need to lose 92lbs. I know i'm overweight. I KNOW I am, I guss I just never realized HOW overweight. That 92lbs is a huge number. It's more than 1/3 of my current weight.

I'm honestly so flabberghasted at that 92lbs that I literally lost my train of thought as to where I was going with this whole thing.

92lbs.

92.

*meep*

Stockholming Myself, day 15

Remember how I said that I had two of these tops? Well, here's the second one. It's "Wear blue for Avatar release" day at work, so I don't have to wear my horrid shapeless work top.

I was going to dye my hair blue too, but for two reasons, I didn't. 1) my husband would likely kill me, and b) the local drugstore didn't have any blue dye. Please understand that option 1) really wouldn't deter me, if I'd located blue dye, I would have done it.

The jeans are actually fairly old, I'm really impressed with how well they're holding together. By fairly old I mean that they're a purchase from summer 08. Usually I wear out the inner thigh on my jeans within 6 months.

Hey look. No socks! And the sunglasses in my hand I'd actually taken a picture with to see what I'd look like, but I decided that wearing sunglasses indoors was a silly idea.

Now I just need to find some accessories, and my watch (I think it fell behind the bed when I was showering this morning) and I'm ready to face the day!

Stockholming Myself, day 14

Day 14. I made it to two weeks. Yay me!

Today I sent out a call on twitter to see which of two shirts I should wear for today's picture.

Tinkerbell (with sparkles that you can't see) won.

Yes, the shirt is sewn on a diagonal, so I have to wear a tank underneath it. Maybe that's why I'm looking at myself with an amused/confused look, like, does this look alright? Should I change and try again?

Jeans are a few days old now, time to wash them.

I don't know what I did different with this picture so that you see the left side of my living room instead of the pink wall that's usually off to the right, but, I did it, so, yay? Those slippers went back on my feet as soon as the picture was taken, it may be 15 degrees outside but I'm still freezing. Also, that old tv behind me? Does anyone want it? It still works, we just got a bigger one.
