Time with my Genes

First of all, thank you for all the great  discussion on yesterday's post. Wednesday's always feel like: "Oh, I don't know what to talk about" and then they always result in such interesting feedback. They're now my favourite post of the week.

But today is Thursday, and that means clothes!

My weekend was filled with family from my sister picking me up from work on Friday to watching The Good Wife with Scott on Sunday. It was good, after a busy week at work, to pull on jeans.

Causal Friday is even more vague than business casual, but again, I feel pretty confident in my ability to navigate the murky waters.

It still feels a little odd on Casual Friday to come home and change into something more casual - but I love jeans and a hoodie way more than sweaters and dress shirts when it comes to playing board games and drinking my sister's beer.

I'm hoping this next outfit came out quirky - I have never done the exposed sock before, but it met with some derision from my sister... and my parents... and my not-yet-formulating-full-sentences-niece. However, I am struggling with choosing shoes for skinny jeans in a no-longer-winter-not-yet-summer season.

What do you think? Too bright of sock? The whole sock thing too weird?

More downtown adventures

You know what's fun? Downtown adventures. You know what isn't? Downtown adventures BEFORE stores open. On a cold and snowy day. I traipsed through the skywalks and the underground concourses, only after discovering the library wasn't even set to open for FOUR HOURS.

If I would have known I would be discovering the mazes (it was fun, I wouldn't have just wandered blindly to kill time), I would have worn better shoes.

But nonetheless, I'm glad I dressed based around outwear again. Even when I got home, it was out of jacket and into blankets. Brrrrrr.I chose a shirt that had a cowl for some additional warmth - but I should have gone for a scarf. And a toque. I did remember mitts though!
