Pants? Rag and Bone, Holt's Last Call ($30?)
Sequin vest? Thrifted
Shoes? Thrifted
Wristlet? Coach, gifted
Sunglasses? Forever 21
Between work and making a wedding dress and six bridesmaids dresses, it feels like I haven't had time to do much else. Besides apologize.... apologize to my readers for not posting regularly the last while, apologize to anyone who has called or emailed for being a super flake and not getting back to you, apologize to friends for hearing but not having the brain capacity to listen, apologize to my parents for not visiting enough and mostly apologize to my patient husband Matt because clean underwear is constantly in low supply. So sorry, the madness is almost done!
Glad that's off my chest...
The beat on the fashion street is that kitten heels are making a big comeback. It makes sense. Over the last few years shoes have gone to the extreme in aggressive styles and heights and the tide will inevitably turn to a more demure look. I bought these heels years ago from a charity thrift shop because they were quite cute and in excellent vintage condition and this is their first time out. They are probably a tiny bit higher than kitten heels (teenage cat really....) but they are my lowest heels and it actually took a bit to re-adjust The Strut. I didn't wear them to be on the cutting edge of fashion (while I understand their use, I'm not a huge little heel enthusiast), I wore them because all my other heels made my pants too short and all my flats made my pants too long. Essentially, these heels were like Baby Bear's porridge.... just right.

Oh, you make me laugh.
That gold top is beautiful, and I love the shoes! You're right, teenage cat heels. Hmm, doesn't have quite the same ring to it though...

I'm not a fan of kitten heels. I have short stubby legs so I feel I need to make them look as long as possible!
Love the gold vest!!
clothed much, a modest fashion blog
I really like the trousers. They look so classy!
What a cute top! I seem to be drawn to anything that sparkles!

Amazing outfit, I love it!

WOW. Spectacular.
You look so dapper and awesome in this outfit. I love your sequined top!
Good luck with your busy schedule and don't worry too much about apologizing -- we all have busy lives sometimes. I hope once it's all over you'll be able to post photos of your craftsmanship -- I'll bet that bride and her wedding party will look stunning because of you :)
Gorgeous as always. Man, how do you manage to pull it off even when you are that flat out??
Oh! My headband arrived today. Hooray! I'm formulating the perfect outfit for it. Stay tuned...
Teenage cat hahaha! Your sparkly top is beeeautiful!
I was just thinking to myself the other day how you should apologize for working so hard. What am I supposed to do in between your posts? Have a life? Ridiculous.
Now we know how to rectify this situation, right? Two jobs and a blog! crazy. Quit making those dresses (half done is pretty much done, no?) and tell people to landscape their own yards... THEN post at least 5 times a day. Solved!
I love that vest - gorgeous!! I'm quite please to hear that kitten heels are making a come back too as I've lost my ability to walk in ridiculously high heels :(

I have been crazy busy like this too! How do people who stay crazy busy deal with the guilt?! I guess they just don't have lives.
Your trousers look so great, I love the high waisted smart trousers they look so chic!

Half Dressed
Those trousers are amazing! You look incredibly chic for someone who is so busy!
You can do sequins like no other. And I love the idea of teenage cat heels.
that's a fantastic sequined top!
Those pants are perfect to balance out all the sequins! I am anti-kitten heel, but we'll see... I own one pair and I never wear them!
This is such an awesome outfit! Love, love, love! Pinstripes + Gold sequins - just brilliant!
Small Time Style
I really love this outfit on you. The sequined top fits you perfectly and is a great color. Loved the scalloped pattern made by the sequins
I love the look overall and those shoes are great. If kitten heels are coming bac, then I'm thrilled because I can drool over the height all I want but it's just not practical for my lifestyle.
'Gorgeous ensemble, working woman! 'Any chance we'll get to see the end-products of all your extraordinary seamstering this summer?
Also, do you have any interest in entering out Wonder Woman Pose Conference? Because I suspect you could do a seriously bada$$ WW.
I love this outfit, it's retro but not overly retro/pinup style. It's natural, chic, and comfortable looking.
Wow! I'm always amazed with the way you put pieces together and I love it!
great outfit...those pants make your legs look miles long...love them with that sequin top!!
The kitten/teenage cat heels really pull the look together! I've always been a fan of the small heel, but that's mostly because I don't have the grace or patience to learn to walk in the tall heels.
Those pants are amazing.
I love the kitten heels. Reminds me of Audrey Hepburn!
Gorgeous shirt + love those kitten heels!
Love the sequin top!!!!!
God I love that top. God I love those pants. I can relate on being a bad blogger. I've been the worst.

How do you do your hair like this? Can you please do a tutorial one of these days???
This outfit is perfect (or just right) for dancing on picnic benches. I love it, you look very ladylike and chic.
love this look!! the vintage sequin blouse is amazing!! :)
and thanks for the comment! hahaha yes, you're right- credit to bryan adams for introducing us to the Canadian tuxedo though of course there are other honourable mentions along the way! ;)
Great blog! I will definitely be following!! :)

Yeah, that's pretty much the story of my life. Ugh.
You sure do pull it together brilliantly, though!
you look freaking amazing. nothing i dig more than a great pair of trousers with a fancy top.
i don't know about kitten heels though...not for me anyway...my legs are a little too stumpy as it is.

barefoot & vintage
Oh dear god, I am in LOVE with those pants. In. love.
The teenage cats are quite cute, and I love the sequined top. Simply divine.
Chic on the Cheap
I LOVE the gold vest! *As well as many other things that you've worn, but this is my first comment. I was motivated by your shiny sparkly jacket to look for a similar jacket while I'm out thrifting and now I MUST add a vest to my wishlist as well.
Love this look!
