Gym Clothes Are For The Gym

I contemplated wearing yoga pants and a hooded sweatshirt on this lazy Sunday but I decided I could wear comfortable clothes without looking like I was headed to the gym, so I wore this instead, and was equally as comfortable.

I bought this lady-like hat in Australia years ago and it’s by Kangol.  It’s one of those purchases I love and never really wear, but will hold on to forever.

I’m also wearing:
* Distressed jeans, Joe Fresh ($29)

* Charcoal top with lace shoulders, Winners ($19)
* Dex chunky knit sweater, Winners ($24)
* Cowboy boots, vintage store on Dundas ($10)

Next time you’re temped to leave the house in “house clothes” (as Italians in Italy would say), reach for a pair of jeans and a knit sweater instead – you’ll feel like less of a bum and you’ll be glad you did.  JD

This is my “hurry up and take the picture, I’m so cold” dance.
Thanks for taking the pics Mom! xo

Calgary Stampede

Unfortunately Seven Dollar Pants will not be in Alberta for the crazy-popular Calgary Stampede. The festivities begin tomorrow (July 9-18), and we wish we were going. Christine has been a handful of times and raves about it, but I have yet to go. It is known as one of the most popular events in Canada and is referred to as “the greatest outdoor show on earth.” I believe it. I spotted my cowboy boots in my closet and I felt bad for them – they’d probably like to be there. Perhaps next year. My red cowboy boots were $15 from Sunshine Deli vintage store on Dundas West which no longer exists. I loved that store. My dark brown cowboy boots were found at My Sister’s Closet in Port Colborne for $18. Are you going to the Calgary Stampede? What is the best party there? JD
