Short and Simple outfit of the day

Today is another day off, lunch with friends, poke around in some shops, do some housework, all in all will be a great day.  I think I have finally figured out that my go-to outfit is a dress, sweater or jacket, and boots.  The outfits are always very comfortable and I feel good in them.  Also, if it decides to rain, my feet always stay dry, which is a big plus for the lower mainland.

This photo was taken rather quickly, in fact,  I only was able to get two shots done.  My room-mate is home today, and I have yet to break the news to him that I run into the backyard and take numerous photos of myself on a fairly consistent basis.  One day he will know, if he ever finds this blog.  It might actually be a plus, since he is a very skilled photographer, but I find it hard enough to take photos by myself, let alone smile for other people on camera.

On an outfit related side bit, I really do enjoy the promotions that the Gap offers on Wednesdays.  The one near my work recently had 40% off of everything in the store, including sale items.  So if you look really hard, you can find some great deals.  (Not affiliated, just really like to share deals!)
