I am not a morning person.. but.. I so love an early morning when I can have toasted (plain) English muffins with strawberry jam and butter which I then proceed to "dunk" into my Mocha café. I love waking up early to go to Disney world, pulling on sweats for class, warm chocolate croissants, watching MTV with breakfast, staying in bed with a really good song on my iPod, today's was "Viva la Vida" by Coldplay haha! Here's to those wonderful gray early mornings.
Raglan: American Apparel. Necklace: forever 21. Shorts: diy cut offs from Blue Cult.Tights: Urban Outfitters. Boots: Minnetonka.
Happy Friday! ♥
Sweety, my monochromatic little puppy, stops to say hello. =]

Hi baby, I love you in minnetonka boots. You're one of those girls who can really pull off them. I have two boots that I can never seem to pair an oufit with, but seeing you look all hot in them it gives me the motivation. Loving the outfit, love you.
I love that necklace as well!
i am REALLY lovin this outfit. AND I LOVE VIVA LA VIDA BY COLDPLAY!! Me and my friend sing it at work. lol. *I used to rullllleee the world...*

Ohhh god, I'm such a fan of Poladroid, it's just the funniest invention ever !
You're gotta have loooots of poladroid-ed stuff on R-V xD !
And Viva la vida... I love that song, and ' Violet Hill '... and... well I just love Coldplay !
Hugs dear!
i'd have to say i'm not so much the morning person either.. i so need that raglan!!
and sweety is so kute!
Well, it's extremely well done anyway :D.
I installed Poladroid on my mum's Mac and it seems to work pretty good !
R-V is my blog, I'm sorry for the pavlovian reflex, my former ( and actual ) blog is rosso-velvet so it's R-V for everyone ! :D
Thanks again !
Or When "Pocahontas" meets "Daisy Dukes", on such a mesmerizing cocktail (placed under the sign of sexy/casual gracefulness) !!!
à Bientôt, Antoine
I dunno I think the boy and I may head your way for July =P like I said, let's play in our Minn's and rule MIA!!!!
@ issa - thank you =] she says "woof woof"
@ baileyy- it's a plan let's hope we can do it X
The polaroid photos are beautiful sweety!! And i say hello to your lovely Puppy!!
I've got a lot of Minnetonka 's shoes, but this one in black, and with the shorts you're hot baby!!!
Can i borrow your necklace? ;-)
Have a great week-end sweety!
xxx,
Sonia.

Love those photos! I have a very similar pair of shorts!
Kisses
Su
A girl after my own heart, you Know i love this look on you! xx
Grat outfit !!!

oh, what an adorable puppy. =) Very cute outfit, i love the necklace! Thank you so much for your sweetie comment :)
what a lovely outfit.
those boots are wild and make me want to pretend to be pocohontas.
puppy is too cute. gosh i love pets.
oh and yes it has been a while. shame on my slow internet :(
x
cute necklace. cute doggy. gorgeous sweater!
Great outfit for a compfortable casual day! Love the necklace and sweety and you!!
What a cute monocromatic puppy! Actually, you puppy is achromatic too! I learned that in art class today.
And Stardust's real name is Cameron--but we should call her Cam because that's more hobo like.
Hey funny I bought a pair like yesterday ! Love them too ! xx Have a nice WE !
Ooooooh, cute necklace!! And an even cuter puppy! :)
Gosh, Erika. Tell me, why why why are you so good-looking in every outfit? ♥
Love the retro look in some of the photos.
Jeff
LOVE your shorts. and your puppy!
<3
I want to wear my cut-offs with my ripped tights but I post outfits I wear to work and I haven't quite rationed whether or not it's acceptable- even if it is a magazine- to wear ripped tights to the office...so perhaps ill pull them on for a weekend post!
Oh and for the shredding- i make a small initial hole with nail clippers and then I Riiiiipppppp! lol! until its as wide as it is long! buy the cheap ones from the pharmacie- theyre perfect for shredding in consistency and price point ;-)
I love this look! The slouchy oversized top looks so chic with the shorts and tights.
What a cute puppy! :]
I love your header too.
-Tina
P.S. I'm finally back on the "blogosphere" - new updates on my blog!
gray mornings and cups of tea.
love your new header
Sweetie is too big noow!!
I don't like early mornings... but sometimes... they're just perfect!
I love those boots!
that raglan top looks stellar on you. i love the look, but i've never been able to pull it off. have a fabulous weekend! xxx
I loooooove this outfit.. This's the type of outfit I would wear all day long and your puppy..OMG!
this is super awesome.
it is also very "ME"
i adore shorts and tights
and those minnetonkas are great.
@ Sonia-Fashionbox - yes about the necklace, and I will tell her HI from you, thank youuuuu =]
@SJ - hey, sweets! YOU FLATTER ME SO! thank you darling for those emails, too. =]
I can't believe your pharmacie doesn't have the full length ones! Try another pharmacie as I'm sure they sell them- my mom's the one who introduced to me to pharmacie nylons after a trip to the US.
Otherwise try Claire's. We have a store called Ardène here that's like it and they sell tights and if not H&M sells them as well- $5 a pair which really isn't expensive. And if not any of the above, try stores like Walmart? maybe!
keep me posted lady ;-)
You see when you wear comfortable clothes you inspire us all and me to try a way of reinventing it to be chic. HELLO BOOTS! =)
@ Anonymous 10:47 - hey that's quite nice to read (and hear) thank you. :]
Get these boots, I promise you that they are so incredibly comfortable which is the best part next to their cool look<3
thank you so much lady! Honestly, that comment means a lot to me as I'm just trying it out you know, and I really just hope I can really hone my skill and bring to my readers something that they can relate to and that they want to see.
I've always loved photography but I never took any classes- my step-grandparents are the pros, they've traveled to the smallest villages on earth to take pictures- their house is a museum- literally. They even have big ties with the Montreal Museum of fine arts. anyways, kinda off-topic, but I always admired their work and would love to one day be able to say that I just have a natural knack for photographing people- i do candid shots. its what I love. And i can't take landscape pictures to save my life! lol!
I plan to take loads more in the spring, cause here in the spring pple really pull out all the stops being that were so bundled up 5 months out of the year!
<3 xx
Okay so achromatic is like a black and white color scheme. Like monochromatic except without a color like red or blue. And since your baby is black and white, she's achromatic (if you want to be all technical and such).
And Cam is perfection, I agree. But I've decided to reply to the Hobo Clan comments right away, and leave the other ones for later. I miss you both too much when I go MIA. And I'll try to keep outfit posting--I just get too lazy to change back into clothes after dance. But I'll try really hard!
I love this ensemble. It's very chill but it's also very trendy, and shows of your lovely personality. :) I particularly enjoy those boots and the necklace. V V cute!
Suzanne IMOS.
gray mornings are the best kind of morning! they're the ones where you can lounge around doing nothing, sipping tea, listening to music, idly perusing a magazine. i love your gray morning gray outfit, especially the jumper which looks so cosy! and the boots too... ah boots. the perfect pair still eludes me, but i'm keeping on keeping and searching until it kills me haha..
XXX
ps. love the header!
=]
i like the ensemble! boots with tights are a great look when done right,and you nailed it. i'm a huge fan of 'seasonless' dressing.
other than swimsuits and parkas, which clearly can only be worn in their respective seasons.
<3
I really wish I could pull of this kind of outfit. You truly are my number one inspiration for outfits. We'll be pretty lethal when we eventually meet up. I will reserve top table at Bella Italia!
Give Sweety a cuddle from me! x
Cute puppy! And cute outfit :)
love this outfit! no one can ever have too many grey sweaters :)
oh and i love the song playing! on your way by the album leaf right? love it!
xoxo

Hi there-such a cute, casual chic outfit, I adore it!! Have a great weekend!
I HEART this outfit. It's casual chic!
i like your music,
can you tell me the name?
Oh, I love that red heart necklace against the gray sweater! And the black/white/sepia photo is so beautiful!
And you know how much I love black tights...
I'm not a morning person either. I hate everyone in the mornings, especially people with an exceptionally good mood. Toasted English muffins could appease me, though.
Viva La Vida is one of my favourite songs.
Love, Cate
Very exciting, I want to steal them! Also, your dog is gorgeous!
x
We shall hobo in our fake furs, dresses, and coffees. I find it so ironic that you got a small, I really hope I don't drown in my medium! So yes, that means it did go through. At least I'm still getting the dresses, right?
Love the boots! They look gorgeous on you! :)
Hiii, love the Minnetonkas! To answer your question, they just emailed me a couple weeeks ago ;)
It's a gray morning here too! Love it.
the boots and the shorts look so good together. such a comfy look that still maintains its fashion flair. lovesss!
i feel like i never get to enjoy the morning because i am either rushing to class or i've slept past it!
and i love every single piece you are wearing =)
aaaahw cute doggy!

awww your puppy is too cute for words!
your breakfast sounds yummy!
xoxo,
La C.

Agree with you 100%, so not a morning person. But after a decent coffee (preferably with an English muffin smothered by strawberry jam, mmm :) I can cope.
Love your sweatshirt, by the way....looks soooo cosy!
Have a great weekend bella

PS. Okay, she's Behati Prinsloo.
I've just realized.
Hello sweety ;)
I love seeing your look...I love grey sweater, heart necklace, & definitely your boots ;)
And I really really love coldplay, so it makes me more happy to know that I have a friend that also love them...Especially Guy Berryman ;p
VIVA LA VIDA erikaaaa ^,^
I am not a morning person either, but what is better than a good breakfast to put you in a good mood? :))
Love these boots, so cozy and comfortable! You look amazingly simple and gorgeous at the same time.
xoxo
You have superb skills for making casual clothing look really chic! I dont know how to put it in words exactly-- but its the way you carry clothes.. :-) gah, i need to unfreeze my brain so that I could further expound on this.. hehe..
and I do love gray early mornings too.. we've been having quite a lot of those lately and the first few times I found myself waking up and thinking that its already late in the afternoon.
xoxo

You look fantastic! The tights look surprisingly good with the cut offs! And that necklace steals the show!
Sweetie is sooooo beautiful!

hey erika!
I hope all is well, I love the new header. Just to let you know you are one of my inspirations. Keep it up . I love everything you post.
I feel the same way about mornings. I love sleeping in, but I also like getting up early and getting stuff done.
Love the necklace with that heather gray sweatshirt!
ah, you make mornings sound so nice and calm. haha, it's been a while since I've had one of those days. I'm always in a rush!
These laidback and simple outfits of yours.. You pull them of so well!
xoxo
Love your look. Very Behati!
C.
OK. enough. Stop it with the anonymous eating disorder comments the girl is obviously healthy and you're just jealous. she's perfectly gorgeous as is!!!!!!
ignore them. :(
I love your pants and the top, so MK but extra chic cause you wear it in a way that makes it uncasual and more fun. :)
I am so down with the Sbux gift cards. WE WILL TAKE OVER! HaHaHaHa!!! 1 chocolate coffee at a time. ;-)
SxD / Cam. :-)
This outfit is so hott! one of my fav. from fashion chalet! I've been on a small hiatus trying to get back on my college schedule! But i'm back and oh how i missed your blog! It just keeps getting better and better!
Oooh I love those mornings. I feel like they get such a bad rep sometimes. But yes, when you aren't in a hurry to get anywhere, waking up early can be wonderful. And you of course look very comfy.
I love the gray top! Gray is my absolute favorite color. I have a new blog, and I'd love if you could check it out.
Hi Love!
I'm with you on not being crazy about early mornings! I used to hate waking up early when I had my 9-5 job, thank God I don't have to be a routine person anymore.
I love how you posed in the third picture. You look beautiful! :)
Muah!
I love your outfit! And your necklace is beautiful!! ;)

Oh your outfit looks so chic and comfy (and I love chic AND comfy, because it seems like a lot of times chic comes without the comfy! haha) And wow, I was like, "Go to Disney World!?" and then I realized you live in FL, so I guess it's convenient to go to Disney World on any given morning! :)
Tell Sweety, I say "hi!" back!
Anyway, it's been so long (stupid computer virus!), how have you been? :)
And oh yes, please do remind me about those shoe pictures, I have issues forgetting, as I think I said before! :P
Take care!
