Breathe

Today's outfit was inspired by a photo a co-worker sent me of an outfit she loved from Anthropologie. Here's Anthro's version:

And here's my version:

Apologies for the super wrinkled skirt - this was after an unbelievably long day.

Striped Top: Target

Khaki Skirt: Zara

Belt: Urban Behaviour

Flats: Spring

Bracelets: Expression (The Bay)

Apparently the themes of the week are frustration, stress and stupidness. And today was no exception. Thanks to a certain someone at work, the washing machine on my floor that ate both my loonies, the drunk guy on the bus who chose to pick a fight with the driver, and my panty hose.

But instead of focusing on the bad today, to keep my sanity, I've made a list of all the things that made me happy today:

1. My new skirt.
2. My new shoes (although these started hurting my feet by the end of the day).
3. Wearing a spring coat for the first time this year.
4. (Most of) the fabulous people I work with. 
5. Homemade soup.
6. Homemade lavender cookies.
7. Coming home to watch episodes of my favourite 1990s British sitcom, Keeping Up Appearances. 
8. This video, courtesy of one of my besties Ray-Ray, which explains how I felt at approximately 2:00 this afternoon:

Inhaaaaale......Exhaaaaaaaaaaale.
