DAY 26. NIGHT 26. DAY 27.

So here I am enjoying a beautiful Sunday on what will be the final weekend of the Wear a Dress everyday in June experiment. And, frankly, Im a little sad. What started out to be a fun and pretty silly idea has turned into something much more and I dont really want it it end. The response I have gotten to my dresses have been overwhelming as friends/family/coworkers/ and even relative strangers have showed me incredible kindness and generosity with their comments. Can`t lie, its nice to hear compliments, I just have to learn to be better at accepting them graciously.

So heres a quick run down on the past 30 hours or so. Saturday morning I was up early and off to work in this adorable brown and white polk-a-dot dress. The lighting is bad, but trust me, there are polk-a-dots. Despite my better judgement I wore these heels. This would later come back to bite me as by the end of the night, by sore ankle trippled in size and turned into a full on CANKLE!

After work, it was a quick workout, shower and chill time on the patio, before heading to Iron Maiden bitches!!!! My first instinct for any rock show is jeans (or in this heat, shorts) but I fought against those feelings and selected a skirt. And not just any skirt. After a few false starts I went with this plaid skirt from Dickies. I bought this from Mars&Venus thinking it would be good for Roller Derby, however, I realized fairly quickly that it wasn`t short enough to play in. But, its the perfect length for a good ol fashioned metal show!!! Naturally, I wore my Judas Priest tank top with it, cuz Im such a headbanger.

(MAIDEN! MAIDEN!)

This morning it was off to brunch with my girls Amber, Kathleen and Jana. It was a bit like Sex and the City, with 4 Samanthas. Lots of crude talk and laughter and 11am ceasars. Yum. But it was bound to happen. I repeated a dress. Told you I would. So this black and white number first appeared way back on day 9. But I wore black tights that day, and today I didn`t. Oh and I added a giant flower so its completely different.

Time to grab an outdoor sunshine nap.

Friday night.....

When I last blogged I was headed to lunch with the girls and now here it is, Sunday afernoon and the whole weekend has been a bit of a blur. I will do my best to catch you up on what happened and what I wore.

First of all, on Friday night, I met up with the infamous Tron for some tasty drinks at the Empress. (I really do love that bar, thanks Sue for creating a great chill place to hang with friends) We rode our bikes across the river from Downtown to the southside and managed to avoid getting rained on. On the way home however, I go soaked as I was caught in a downpour halfway across the high level bridge.

Thankfully I didn`t ruin my dress. Altho, even if I had, I wouldn`t have cried too much as this grey jersey tank was only $12 from Urban Planet. Its one of those completely disposable dresses that probably wont last the season, but its super cute and it has my two favorite things. Pockes and sequins. Love it!

At the time I took the photo, I still hadn`t decided on shoes.... still nursing a pretty nasty ankle and sadly, high heels were not an option this weekend.
