Day Thirty Six of my Scarf Challenge

It's a blue and paisley kind of day!

So today was a great day but not a great day. I thought I was going into the dentist to have a wisdom tooth pulled. Turns out there is no wisdom tooth there was after about two hours they finally came to the conclusion that they had no conclusion. My mouth has baffled the dental and orthodontic communities for years so I will not hold it against them. So no teeth pulled yeah but sad because no conclusive results. 

So because of this I dressed extremely casual today. a spirit jersey from my honeymoon and my blue paisley scarf. It is true, blue is a very calming colour so I loaded up on it today. Again, like yesterday nothing too special about this scarf. I loved that it was blue a colour that I really do not own much of in the scarf department. Plus, paisley is beautiful and perfect for this time of year. Again a pattern a love but I do not own much of. 

Sorry for the squinty eyes but it was bright. 

Have a day full of colour!

Day Thirty Five of my Scarf Challenge

Sorry for the delay everyone!

Considering it has been almost a week you are going to be getting some scarf concentrate. Like orange juice, only scarves. 

This is a scarf that does not really have a super special story. I bought it when I went down to meet with my new manager at her old store. It ended up being about $7.00. What I like is the two fabrics and how they compliment one another. I love my neutrals and browns and beiges and such. This scarf is perfect because it has all of that and just a touch of colour to add a little pop to the outfit. A lot of people tell me I need to wear more purple so here you go for the folks that tell me that. 

I really wish I had worn my gray jeans or something instead though. Plus all the photos with my face were terrible so you just get the outfit. 

Have a great one. Thanks for your patience and your continued support!

Day Thirty Four of my Scarf Challenge

I have been seeing lots of stars this week. 

Starfish earrings, necklaces, shirts, scarves, bracelets, pretty much anything you can imagine. Yes I am obsessed with starfish probably more then scarves. 

I have also been feeling a little more nautical then edgy the past few days. A phenomenon that does not often happen. Bring starfish into the picture and things change a bit. 

My scarf today is one of my favourites. It is a bright coral scarf with white starfish. My husband bought it for me on our honeymoon at Amelia Island. I bought it at a store that was I believe the first store my family and I went into when we visited Amelia Island years ago. It was still so nice to see it there. There were so many items with starfish that I wanted but I narrowed it down to this one. Up until my honeymoon I did not own a scarf with starfish as I had never found one that I loved. I even did the game with this scarf of okay this is the first store I am going in and we are here for three more days. If it is still there in three days I will get it. Well it was and my husband surprised me with it. How special, lucky, blessed, and loved am I. Pair this scarf with a navy and white striped shirt and it just jumps. 

I was in a bit of a rush so no fun makeup. Sorry.

Day Thirty Three of my Scarf Challenge

Lobster for lunch anyone?

I have been very very bad about posting. I feel very bad as I have had several people the last few days ask me when I was going to be posting next as they have been seeing and reading. I did not realize. Haha. Sorry for that.

This scarf has the same story as the bicycle scarf that I wore very early on in my challenge. I got it at Icing when I volunteered at an event called Grand Ball. One of the best events I have ever been apart of. We did two days of shopping. One was just to try and find me a dress. Which we finally did. It was on sale and it took two malls and a good part of two days to find. I grabbed the bicycle for reasons you can read in my old post. For the lobster though it is a lot different. I do not like the taste of lobster at all. Most people find this very hard to believe. I tell them they should like me more because it means more for them. I do love lobsters on clothing though. Something just so nautical about it. Lobsters also remind me of the north east. One summer my parents took us on a road trip from Nova Scotia all the way back down to Florida. It was one of my most memorable road trips with them. I also love blue and red especially together and it just adds a little bit of patriotism in there.

Sorry for the very straight uncomfortable pose. I was uncomfortable as there were several neibours walking about staring. 

Eat up.

Day Thirty Two of my Scarf Challenge

Ahoy Sailours!

So the outfit for today was very colourful. I had it one way before work and then had to modify it for work. The picture you will see is the modified look. I preferred it with white shorts or my blue skinny jeans. I also wore it with brown braided leather slippers (aka flip flops.)

This whole outfit really has a story to it. Well most of the components. The shirt was a top I bought before I went to France. I decided I wanted some basic v necks to wear while I was in France. They had very few colours in my size and so I bought what I could get. I decided I did not like the colour because it was too bright and thought I would never wear it so I did not take it to France. Plus I took only nudes (mostly darker ones with me.) Now I love this colour and it is very in for spring right now.

I bought the shoes about a week ago at the Hospice thrift store. I am so sad that they will be closing this branch. As many know I am a huge supporter of Hospice. I used to volunteer hundreds of hours  at my local Hospice each year. I got these Sperry's that were maybe worn once or twice for $7.50. My mum was so worried I would get blisters from new shoes that she had me take a change of sandals with me. No sore feet and no blisters. I am super excited to have them. Somehow I always get Sperry's that I like and want on discount I just have to be patient.

Lastly and most importantly my scarf. I have my mint and white seahorse scarf on. It is very soft and just so different for my "nautical" wardrobe. I love seahorses but have nothing with them and the colour was beautiful. I got it at Francesca's ( of course.) I also bought matching sea horse earrings to go with them.

Sorry, the jeans need to be altered to fit me a little better. I have lost 30 pounds since working and probably about 15 or 20 from when I bought these jeans. I think that may have been why I preferred the other pants I had with the outfit earlier.

Day Thirty One of my Scarf Challenge

Goodnight OddBalls.

Yes. This is the kind of day it has been. The kind of day I am telling people goodbye and goodnight before I even get started. Today I worked a double. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I made it through with no caffeine. I also woke up planning to go to work all beachy, spring and preppy and instead I went black, dark, and comfortable. Anyway, to the scarf.

So in the last few days I have met quite a few other Aggies here in spring break both staff and students. It has been so nice having them around. In honour of that I actually wore my Love Aggies scarf that my mum bought me for Christmas two years ago. 

Thanks, Gig 'Em and God Bless.

Day Thirty of my Scarf Challenge

Leftovers Anyone?

I am still feeling the green from St. Patrick's Day so I wore some olive green. Still green but darker as I am in mourning that I have to wait another whole year until St. Patrick's Day again. 

My scarf came from a little seaside town in France. We had been on the bus for many hours and we were ahead of schedule and were behaving so they stopped off in this town that had a beach maybe 500 feet long and a town that was not even a block. A cute little ice cream parlour overlooking the ocean. I never was able to get the name of the town even from our tour guide or bus driver. It was a place I wish I could just stop by again but I was never able to recover the name sadly. As y'all probably know by now I am in love with olive green which really attracted me to this scarf. I loved the two tone look and it is the softest scarf I own. Sometimes when I was in France and wanted something soft to sleep with I would snuggle up to it in bed. 

I cannot say I was thrilled with the bottom part of my outfit but that is what I had and I really wanted to wear that top and scarf. 

I also tried something new with my hair. I did much better with it today then yesterday (which is when this outfit is from.)

Have a great day.
