Hump Day
It’s a perfectly perfect autumnal day out. I had to put on my vintage Joan & David bucks today. I got them at a Salvation Army for $6. The little grey sweatshirt cardigan was borrowed from my friend Jen Brill. Since the red lipstick went over so well last night, I decided to go with a more orange-red for daytime. I’m not very used to wearing lipstick but I think this dress is allowing me to try new things. Maybe next I’ll attempt some jewelry. I have to go digging in my archives but hopefully I can find something. The dress really goes with a lot of things. Hope you like it!

Cute and casual today, the orange-red lipstick suits you! Love that you’re experimenting, that’s what it’s all about!

Yay – sweet kicks – love the grays! I think hair can be a fun ‘accessory’ too (yours is so nice and long) if you tried a side swept braid or something like that.

Yup, the lipstick is great, and last night’s pics were fabulous. Funny day to say this, because they aren’t showing–maybe that’s why I noticed–but I really like your tattoos.

@ jesse, check out last night’s photos, plenty of smiles there. Great pics today, looks like you’ve got the hang of that dress. You look a bit like Lourdes in the middle photo.

These shoes are soooo lovely and the glasses are perfect for this outfit!
A hairband in red would have been perfect match for the lipstick (which suits you very well)!

Yeah to Lippy. Oh hell, thats what my Mother called it. Great outfit. I think I will make this dress in a super double knit or soft jersey. I know, I will do both, lol. Yes go look for your jewellery.

Love this, you look like an off-duty Lady Gaga (in a totally good way!) 😉

I think it would be interesting if you went to visit the Phoenix House and took your photo there, with someone you knew from back in the day. This might also inspire people to donate — at least, if you don’t have the energy for that, you could tell us about your time there.

Love the pics from the party. Where were Sheena & Liza?!?!

I love those oxfords and the jacket too. Looks like you’re making your way through all the challenges. I like that everyone is making this challenge their own. The way Sheena did it is different from how India did it is different from how you do it … and it’s all great! You all bring your own style and lifestyle to the uniform.

Loving the lipstick as an accessory. The cardigan is super cute too, and the shoes. It seems like the perfect outfit for the rainy day I’m experiencing right now here in Toronto.

And maybe you could gravitate into a more experimental direction?
