Day To Night Outfit Switcheroo

September 29, 2013 by suzanne carillo

My girlfriend and I went downtown to catch Peter Case at a club last week. The show was amazing. He played for 2.25 alone on stage in a very intimate club.

Although I took piano as a kid people that have a natural musical talent are like magicians to me. I wish I had even a fraction of that kind of musical talent.

We went downtown early and wanted to check out a few of the good thrift/vintage stores on Queen St. I needed a look that could go from day to night with only a quick change in the car at the parking lot.

I wonder what Superman does. There are no more phone booths to make these kind of quick clothes changes in anymore. Probably changes in his car in a parking lot.

This is what I came up with.

I'm calling it "retro French internantional spy girl" since Superwoman is already taken.

Or simply…RFISG. I've started printing t-shirts already.

Now all I need is a comic book series and 3 blockbuster movies.

Booties & Cardigan – TJ Maxx, Dress – consignement, Belt – Anthro, Handbag – vintage, Scarf – ModCloth

Then take off the sweater, belt, scarf, hat and boots in the car and voilà…

I'm naked.

I do wear underwear.

Sometimes.

TMI?

Kidding.

Here is the new evening outfit…

Club ready.

By far we were the best dressed at the club. I kinda like that though.

I'd rather be overdressed than under dressed any day.

Both the dress and the clutch are thrift/consignment finds.

Shoes are very old bought at TJ Maxx, tights – Joe Fresh, Necklace – Made by Me : )

Please ignore the uncut grass. Hubby is away and I'm not good with the lawn mower, yard maintenance and any kind of manual labour in general.

Remember I'm an international spy (not Superwoman).

Jumpsuit On A Plane & Irrational Thoughts

June 30, 2013 by suzanne carillo

I plan on wearing this to the family reunion we have coming up. It's so comfortable I'm trying to decide if I will wear it on the plane.

Jumpsuit – Mexx, Shoes – Me Too!, Belt – Anthropologie, Clutch – TJ Maxx, Watch – Mistura, Glasses – Firmoo

I'm only hesitating because once I had the misfortune of being stuck right at the back of the plane next to the toilets. During the flight someone accidentally walked in on someone that had failed to lock the door. I mean who fails to lock the door? How is that even possible? It's dark in there when the door isn't locked. Like a fridge. The lights don't come on unless you lock the door. But nope, this crazy person didn't lock the door and myself and about 4 other people caught a glimpse that I am still trying to scrub from my brain. Seriously. I freak out if my husband walks in on me in the bathroom and we've been together for 23 years. You can imagine how I felt looking at a total stranger doing their business.

My fear is totally irrational…I think that since I have to remove the whole jumpsuit to go to the bathroom what if I forget to lock the door? Then someone sees me basically naked? In the plane toilet? They might think I'm waiting for my lover to show up so we can join the mile high club. Or I might ruin their lunch. Or traumatize their kids.

Or worse yet…what if part of my jumpsuit touches the floor in the airplane bathroom? ARGH! Or what if it touches the side of the airplane TOILET??? (silent scream) I think it would have to be burned after that.

So these are the dilemmas I'm facing when trying to figure out what I'm packing on my trip.

Welcome to my brain. Over-thinker paranoid germaphobe fashionista.
