Style by Numbers
I wore this outfit at the last iWriteAboutMe workshop at UBC. The workshop/speaker series is a series of speaker talks given by a mix of local and international journalists, authors, directors, and media entrepreneurs to the public about their experiences and insights in the media industry and on online media itself. I work as a project coordinator as the project was the brainchild of myself and my editor at Schema Magazine and it's been amazing how lucky we've been with our choice of speakers. Every person has been highly eloquent and inspiring, so I encourage anyone with a free week night to attend our next event, which should be happening around the beginning of April!
Anyways, onto the outfit. Like most of the outfits I end up liking the most, this one came together in a flash of random inspiration. I wanted something with a variety of colour, that would look classy, and also provide mobility since I needed to be taking photos during the event. This combo was cold on the legs (it was January at the time), but hot on style! I love the ruffle detailing, but this top was sleeveless, so I paired it with a bright blue sweater. How the gold flats came into the mix I have no idea, but I liked how it was an unexpected match.

love the mix of blue and purple!
Gold and blue make a good match. And you are right, the best outfits are those that don't take too much time to put together. You look so cute in your pose!
I love this outfit. The color combo is brilliant!
Definitely classy. :) Love the flats!

p.s. re: Remember Me - haha I tried to say as little as possible. Yeah, I think I remember reading somewhere that he wanted to make sure the movie wasn't marketed wrong because it's not a conventional story, or something. I don't know how he got the exec producer job, though, maybe he asked? Does it work that way, haha?
Love how you paired the ruffled shirt with the sweater! You look adorable!
Cute outfit! I'm still not brave enough to wear skirts bare-legged yet but I'm counting the days until we can!
i love when i can create an outfit at random. it usually only happens when i'm in a rush and sometimes i figure out the most uncanny combinations that work when i have little time to think about it. it's bizarre but i like it. you're so cute in this photo! love the ruffled shirt paired with the sweater - very simple yet chic!
