(Warning: This a picture heavy post!)
It is Friday night and I am all alone in this big city! Well, not all alone because I am happy to say that I have a few friends I could call and talk to and probably meet up with if I wished to (who am I kidding … call? More like Blackberry Messenger because that is all I use these days.) Anyways, I guess I am alone by choice, and I am actually a bit homesick because tonight is .. drumroll please … Miss Kate’s birthday! Yes my friends, my beautiful, pregnant (!!!!), photographer sister is 24 today. I have always maintained that Kate’s birthday is my favourite holiday of the year, and if you ever meet Kate with a few (too many) beers and tequila shots in her belly, you would know why. But with being pregnant and all, I have a feeling this birthday will be 99% more tame than years gone by.

So we’ve got the important part out of the way, and I bring to you the fun! exciting! part. Except not so much. I realized today that every weekend, I pretty much wear the same outfit, or some variation of it. This outfit always includes sandals, skinny jeans, a tank top and cute earrings. And you know what? I’m okay with that. It’s comfortable, and it’s just a very “Leah” outfit. My “Leah” outfits used to be just black- all black – and I had to make a goal for myself to branch out and wear colours more. Well, I kind of failed in this outfit, but in the past year I have done very good at incorporating more colour into my wardrobe, and I don’t drift towards the black clothes in stores anymore (this is progress, my friends.) I blame it on my bartending job, and I worked A LOT in the last year and a half of University.
Let’s start from the bottom of the outfit and work our way up.

Sandals
Someone referred to these sandals as my “foot bling” this week, and because of that I pretty much don’t ever want to take them off. From Winners, $39.99 (and worth every penny)
Polish: OPI, Strawberry Margherita

Long, skinny legs in long, skinny jeans.
Jeans, from Guess, $99.99

Black, long tank top.
Black racerback tank top, I think Winners. And I think it was $5.00, something really ridiculously cheap. The tag says “RIPE.” You can’t really see the detail, but it is ruched down the sides.
And haha, iron. Welcome to my life.

Turqoise and gold earrings – I think they are from Value Village, so probably priced at about $2.50. But free for me, because I think I stole them from Lauren last time I was home (thanks, Lau!) On second though, they could also be from Aldo… Lauren can you clarify this for us?
And that is my “weekend outfit!” What are we likely to find you wearing on the weekend? Muumuu? Sundress? Plain ol’ jeans and a tank like me? Toga? Jean skirt?
(P.S. I need to invest in a full-length mirror so that these posts are less crazy-like.)
(P.P.S. Don’t forget to comment and wish Kate a Happy Birthday!)
