Work & Play Friday, March 21, 2008 3:07 AM

Dress: H&M. Blue cashmere grandpa cardigan: vintage Jaeger. Bow necklace: Forever 21. Pear watch pendant: Marc by Marc Jacobs. Dark gray ribbed tights: Joe Fresh Style. Black patent brogues: Aldo.

I call this dress my Madame Mode dress because the first time I saw it was on her blog and I had to have it. As soon as she told me it was from H&M I went to go look for it. Luckily one of the four left on the rack was in my size.

Like the title says, I wore this first to work then out at night (after a much needed nap in between -- I woke up at 4:30 am and couldn't fall asleep again!). However, I wore black flats at work since I was on my feet all day.

Black blouse: Club Monaco. Charm necklace: Urban Outfitters. Skirt: H&M. Black ribbed wool tights: Jessica (Sears). Ballet flats: Joe Fresh Style.

The weather was rainy but mild. I had yum cha at a dim sum restaurant I hadn't been to before with my mum and my grandpa. I wish I had something interesting to say about this outfit, but I don't.

My self-imposed shopping ban went out the window when I went to the Superstore yesterday, not once but twice (with different people at different locations) to check out Joe Fresh.

I didn't end up purchasing any of my picks from their website. Instead I bought a paper bag waist skirt ($24) and a pair of satin cap ballet flats ($19) that were not featured online. I was tempted to snatch up the flats in every single colour then I remembered I was already breaking my shopping ban.

Dark gray turtleneck: Old Navy. Scarf: H&M. Long black hoodie: Gap. Yellow mélange jersey skirt: American Apparel. Dark gray wool tights: H&M. Black moccasin booties: Aldo.

This morning was one of those mornings where I had trouble opening my eyes and getting out of bed. Short of strapping my mattress to my back, I opted for a more lightweight travel friendly outfit for sleepwalking in. This is my translation of wearing my bed through my clothes.
