Mad For Mustard

FINALLY, I have in my possession a mustard skirt XD!! I don’t know how, but mustard has seemed to weasel its way into everyone’s wardrobe this season. I have to admit, I was standoffish about this colour at first, but seeing it simply everywhere has made me fall in LUV. While you walk through the mall to do your shopping this Christmas season, if you happen to see something mustard, whether it is a skirt or a sweater, I highly advise you pick it up.


[FASHION TIP]

If you have happen to have a short mustard skirt, pair it with over the knee or thigh-high socks, to make for a cute and cozy outfit this winter. Long skirts are also in this season, so make sure to pick yourself up one to keep you warm and fashionable. =)

The Last Day of Fall.

As fall came to an end this year, a little part of me was crushed. This has been one of the most amazing falls I have ever had. This season has brought my love of fashion to a new light. I have concocted a lot of combination's that I ended up loving dearly, and have introduced another type of style other than the staple- Hollister and Abercrombie shirts, LuLu Lemon exercise pants, and BENCH jackets- to the youth of Windsor. One of the remarkable finds fall has brought me to discover, is this rich bright red shoulder padded jacket and rounded feather top hat that I have been searching the ends of the earth to find. This fall I have been looking for something cheetah to add to my wardrobe. Though I already have a cheetah scarf, I found that this particular trend was not going anywhere and I would like something that I could wear in other seasons. On a hunt, I came across a lacey cheetah dress, that a mom just before me was looking at, that happened to have an under slip attached to it. I quickly picked it up and heard the whisper “she’s got good taste” that she exchanged to her daughter about me. Determined to posses only the lacey dress, I took it home and found a way to carefully detach the slip. To my surprise the slip was nice and a perfectly pleasant neutral dress that I could also wear in the fall. This happens to be the dress that I am wearing under my jacket in this picture. Joyous at the fact that I got more for my money, made this find even more pleasurable. Fall you were too good to me and you will be sorely missed. I hope we meet again soon dear friend.


-----I apologize for the quality of these pictures. they were taken form my phone.-----


[FASHION TIP]

Pair a red jacket with strips or a caramel colored shirt/skirt. Bights on top with calm tones or designs on the bottom make for a good statement. Also, find a dress that has to parts to it, and try to make it into more than one style.

If there is one thing I like about Windsor, it’s that the weather here always surprises you. One day it will be cold and the other BLAZING hot. One day to will be warm enough to wear a light sweater or even a t-shirt if you dare, but the minute you finish class a harsh wind will comes out of nowhere and chills your bones. This particular day last week was one of those days. I know from this picture it looks nice and warm, but in reality it was DEAD cold. By the end of this photo shoot my bones were broken and I could hardly walk. Why Tamara, is the question you’re probably asking yourself. I’ll tell you why, it’s because the sun shone so perfectly off those waterfall rocks and for days I’ve been wishing to take a picture there. I was not about to let that opportunity pass me by. Did I forget to mention that I’m CRAZY! That’s most likely the number one reason. Stepahanie was on the sidelines talking the pictures for me while her knees were chattering together. A lady looked out at us like we were insane, which we were, so it was well deserved. Once we were done taking pictures, I quickly raced into my jacket which was waiting for me on a cold and dusty bench. I can more or less say that it was almost, not really, just about, maybe not, if truth be told, worth being cold to capture these beautiful pictures.

[FASHION TIP]

Knee-high socks are one the trends that are in right now and I simply think they make any outfit look cute and cozy. I love them so much that I’ll be wearing them with everything this winter.
