I woke up today and saw clouds. Instead of my normally pessimistic thought of "UGH" I thought "YAY!" Why? Because it was a chance to debut my new umbrella and (not-new) rainboots, of course!
I love wearing bright colours and fun patterns. I seriously think the world would be a happier place if everyone had fun with fashion; (happy) fashion is contagious! Can you imagine?
(Blazer - Value Village $7, Dress - Pacific Mall $15, Tights - H&M $5, Boots - Winners $30, Umbrella - Boutique $20)
I've had these boots for a long time - a good year, at least - but I've never worn them in an outfit! Only for rainy days or mucky field trips, when I'd wear them with my uniform. So, when I saw clouds, I knew I had to centre my outfit around them! Do you guys ever do that? Centre an outfit around an accessory or article of clothing?
Close up of rings - my new favourite piece of jewelry to wear!

These photos were so much fun to take! I know that fall is supposed to be a time for darker colours and yadda-yadda... But, c'mon... You're only young once! Enjoy the neons of the world!
I hope you guys have all had a bright and cheery weekend! Just for the head's up - I probably won't be posting all week due to the fact that I have, well, a uniform and therefore no outfit posts! (You know, unless you're craving to see my grey kilt and blue button down... Tempting, I know...)
What are your favourite colours to wear? Thanks so much for stopping by! And commenting, if you do :)

that umbrella is too cool. ;) and i love wearing crazy rain boots, it makes a boring rainy day that much more exciting!
WAY cool umbrella! I love love love your outfit, too! It reminds me a bit of Blair Waldorf. Sometimes, I actually do base my outfit on a certain article or accessory. Currently, my favourite colours to wear are fall colours like burgundy, navy blue, greys, and not specifically a colour...but fall florals! x
The mix of colors here is really so so beautiful !
Esp. those tights. The pink is really unique,bubblegum pink ! heeee

I love these photos! You are so adorable. The rain boots are super cute and those pink tights are lovely! The rings are super cool too, especially the turqoise one.

i love the colour purple, lavender purple because it has such girly yet gentle approach. I love that you just play with colours in fashion, your taste is like bubblegum sweet & bubbly LOL. i must find a pair of rainboots before next winter, i like them at ankle height, too high just looks too chunky..

I so envy the fact that you actually had a reason to wear rain boots and use an umbrella. I have waited for months for such an opportunity but none have arrived; therefore I've just begun wearing boots in 100-degree heat. The strange looks from random people don't even bother me anymore! :)
Love the colors you're wearing here. I wear a lot of navy blues, plums, olive greens, gray, black, white...okay, I guess I wear many different colors - but more deep than bright, I suppose. Oh yeah, I need your rings - they're just too fabulous not to be taking up space in my jewelry drawer! :)
GREAT PHOTOS! LOVE THE LOOK.

Soooo cute!!!
i LOVE that you love color, way cute. i personally lean toward more pastel shades, i don't know, i'm in a phase. haha.
I'm not a cocktail ring girl, but yours look absolutely cute! Love the umbrella...I can see why you were anxious to show it to everyone!
xxoo

I have the same tights! (: And yes, centering an outfit around one piece is super fun. Like today:
LAME-O GIRL AT SCHOOL: "If you're so hot, take off your blazer!"
Me: "NOOOOOOOO the blazer is the focal point of my whole outfit!!"
Okay, too long of an explanation for a short question. But still. You're not alone (:
P.S. Love the umbrella!
This umbrella is awesome
and yet these great tights + dress = amazing it looks
These are gorgeous photos! You look like a little beam of sunshine on such a cloudy day! So cute.... And my favorite color to wear? PINK! Hurray!
