Checkers anyone?

Man, I wish I had a fireplace so I could cozy up in front of it, drink hot cocoa and dominate the checker board.

But instead I’ll just wear checkered sequins.

Which, like many of my favourite pieces, actually belongs to my sister (thank you, Larissa!). On a completely unrelated note, what is Leroy thinking about?

Made an incredible discovery, by the way. You can wear open-toed boots in the winter. If your winter is of the mild Vancouver variety. And you wear cozy socks.

Razzle dazzle, friends.

    Leroy is probably thinking about biting all the sequins off that lovely shirt!

    Give it back! hah

    I love everything about this outfit! It’s probably one of my favourites i’ve seen you wear. Thank goodness the snow has stopped (for now) so you can wear your adorable boots.

    Since I cant play checkers at all, well I cant win I would totally wear a shirt in loving memory of it.
    Really I would wear anything sequins! :)
    I would love open toe boots, but since I walk everywhere and it wont stop raining in seattle I am holding off, so I will just admire yours!
    Love it!

    Larissa, i hope you steal this sequined top back soon in time for all the holiday parties.

    i love the sequins! and i totally agree about open toes. when it’s mild like the last couple days, you could even go without socks.

    That top is an eye catcher. Good for the day and perfect for a cocktail party

    i love the combo of the sequined checkers and the shoulders of your blazer.

    i think leroy is contemplating donning some sequins himself… perhaps a razzle dazzle collar? ;)
