Back in the Saddle

September 8, 2013 by suzanne carillo

Well here is the first fashion post of myself post surgery. 

Menswear inspired dressing for women

There were definitely times when I wondered if I'd ever be well enough to want to take photos of myself again.

Although I'm not 100% – not quite 80% yet, I'm still hopeful that I will eventually get better.

The last couple of days have been tough. I discovered that the surgery did not get rid of the debilitating monthly cramps I had prior the surgery. This is particularly depressing since that is the whole reason I decided to have surgery in the first place. It makes me want to bang my head against the wall…I won't because I might end up back in the ER.

On a happier note (how do I segue into a fashion post now?) I can wear my clothes again so that is a relief. For 3 weeks it has been either PJs or Robert's sweat pants 24/7. 

Dog anthropologie sweater

I can see the weight I dropped now. This is NOT the way to lose weight people. Just saying.

Emily oxfords shoes anthropologie

My feet are the Mariah Carey of feet. Over-sensitive demanding divas. Nothing is ever good enough for them.  These shoes just might be the chilled-out, swaggy cool, let's-have-some-fun, smiling Nick Cannon for my Mariah feet.

I got them when we were in NYC on our little trip before the surgery. Initially I wanted to buy the silver booties from the Anthro website but they were only on-line and it's too risky to buy footware when you have Mariah feet and can't try them on first or return them with ease from Canada.

I'm delighted Robert convinced me to get these silvery delights because they feel a little magical. Like wearing stars on my feet. 

Do you have any clothing or shoes that make you feel magical?

Friday’s Top Five Fashion Favourites August 29th- Sept 5 2013

September 6, 2013 by suzanne carillo

My vintage curves top five
My Vintage Curves –  Yes, I love Desigual. Yes, I love the choice of accessories. But I chose this image because of the confidence and sexiness that this beautiful woman, happy with her body exudes.

Style honestly top five
Style Honestly – The graphic nature of the photo is fabulous and I am such a sucker for a dog t-shirt.

Petite sweet couture top five
Petite Sweet Couture - So ethereal and the yellow shoes make me think she is a modern version of Dorothy from Oz.

Story girl sarah top five
Story Girl Sarah - What do I dislike about this? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Suburban faux pas top five
Suburban Faux Pas - Very sweet take on a suit with contrasting patterns of polka dots and stripes. The accessories and styling are as Goldie Locks would say… "just right".
