At the Dog Park

Lots more traveling going on this week!
 And a new dress just arrived that I may have to pack...

 I loved the Graceful Greenery dress from ModCloth so much that when it came out in another print (and adorable one too!), I had to nab it.

How fun is this Dog Park print???

I also got the black and red clear Bass x Antonoff Maebird oxfords. I will be making an outfit post very, very soon!

Another Hard Day

Bailey - In Memorium

Poochie Has No Clothes

You may have noticed that this week has been a little light on the outfit of the day posting. The hubby has been out of town since last week fishing which means that I've had to try and keep up with taking care of all the pets, the house, getting ready for work, schlepping the dogs to the doggie day care, going to work and then some community meetings in the evenings.

It kind of sucks.

But he's having a nice visit with his Dad and cousin and uncle so that on the positive side. And I get to go to New York in a few weeks so, he'll have to pick up the slack then. I guess that makes us about even.

Not that anything I've been wearing this week is too awesome or anything. Since I've been carting the dogs to and from the day care place I really haven't worn anything too nice because my older pup likes to lay on my lap while we're driving. And even when they both stay in the passenger seat I still manage to get dog hair all over me. I had to put the lint roller in the car with me because I was so covered. Plus, as the week progresses they get kind of stinky. I can't wait until Friday night when I can wash them. Pe-ew!

I did pull out some more older shoes which were kind of cool but he has the camera too! So I am sans pictures. Once he gets back I'll have to take pics of the shoes I wore (if I can remember that far back!) and post them up.

After this week we'll be back to our regular programming with some added fun of trying to figure out what to pack for the City.

Dress-Up Time: Argyle Sweater Vest

Yes, I should be doing my work that I avoided doing on Friday, or I should be cleaning or something productive but I'd rather goof around on Polyvore while wearing my pj's.

I'm slack, I know.

So, here's my adorable pup (okay, he's 14 but he's still spry so don't tell him he's old):



Now we're not ones to dress up our pets around here. First of all he's a boy dog and doesn't go for any of the frou-frou stuff. He actually hates it. A lot. But it's been pretty cold and as you can see, he had to get a trim. After being boarded during all our trips this Fall he got kind of skanky and matted so I had to give him a hair cut and he was freezing. We thought we would give a sweater a try and he actually hasn't seemed to mind it.

Since I've done some "Inspired by Nature" posts I thought it would be fun to see what outfits I could come up with to coordinate with Mr. Little Sweater Vest there.

I wanted to pull in some of the colors and argyle for the casual ideas. I've got the skirt and jeans and the patent mary janes, but added a top from ModCloth and the zipper top is from Fashion Bug. The hat is Hello Kitty and the wellies are Funky-Wellington-Boots.co.uk.



We do like to take our dogs out with us when we can so I did a couple walking around sundress outfits. From left to right:
1. Debenhams dress with Target necklace, Forever 21 bangle and green Lucite sandals from Bakers
2. TopShop dress, Target necklace, vintage acrylic bangles and my Prada flower heels
3. Paul & Joe shirt dress, ToyWatch acrylic watch, JCrew knee-socks and Payless Lela Rose mary janes.



That was fun!

I love Polyvore (obviously). Making these outfits can be so fun. The favorite sets I've seen so far have been done by MissCedar. She did some Alice in Wonderland sets that I'm dying to own and wear around. They're just adorable.
