A glimpse into a casual me, if you will. I tend to wear sneakers when I just want to hang out on the weekend, especially when running errands or working out. Here, I'm excited to be wearing my new Elizabeth and James deconstructed tee. Thank you, Krystal for informing me of my Contest win. For those of you asking me what I do to keep fit? Easy: I love to play tennis, run/jog, take long, brisk walks with Sweety after dinner, and drinking lots and lots (and lots) of water. I owe Stompface for getting me hooked on Passion Pit, which is what you are listening to now. I'm also really into Rihanna at the moment. I definitely recommend Selfish Girl and Good Girl Gone Bad. By the way, I'm on episode 3 of Tudors, Season 1 now. And let me just say, I cannot stop drooling over Jon Rhys as King Henry VIII. Ahhh! About my 500th blog post: ALL OF YOUR COMMENTS AMAZE ME, ALWAYS!
Jacket: Forever21. Deconstructed Tee: Elizabeth and James. Skinny Jeans: Cheap Monday. Sneakers: Nike 6.0 Morgan air. Nameplate Necklace: MyNameNecklace.

Hey by the way, I'm planning a live video post. Is there a certain time/day that will work best for you?
Soo a live video post would be like a regular vlog, except my webcam will be streaming to the internet. And people can write to me, and I'll speak back to them. I want to use blogtv.com for it.
And I think tomorrow is good for me. Maybe I'll do two because it is short notice...We'll see. I'll post about it in a minute :D
Yup :D
Post up! I'm planning it for 2PM my time, which is 3PM for you right?

I love those shoes! They have that 80s vibe with the chunky colours, and even though they're so casual, they're almost dressy again. I love them, especially paired with those dark grey jeans. it's a lovely jeans colour. I love Cheap Monday too.
You inspired me - when I'll go to school now I'll wear my green and yellow sneakers too! They are just so comfy,- I bet yours are too!
Jonathan Rhys-Meyers seems so cruel as King Henry VIII, but also - SO hot.
Wow, you do a lot of sports... I've always loved tennis. How many times a week do you play? When did you start? Is it difficult?
I always love looking at Krystal's blog - she has an amazing wardrobe, no? In addition to MK's closet we wanted to raid (remember? :D) I would also like to borrow some of HER clothes!
Very cool kicks..love the color. Purple and grey go so well together!
http://fashionroadkill-halifax.blogspot.com
hey lady, congrats on your 500! love how you manage to look to good whilst working out, i'm a train wreck if and when i ever decide to take it upon myself to excercise (close to never). hot!

sneakers:*
EEEE i am suuuch a slut for sneakers believe it or not, i have tons. i love the way youve styled these, it looks great
Hey lovely:) I haven't made a Boston Terrier yet, but if you'd like one you can purchase a "Your pet as a plushie" from my etsy store:) I need to update my plushie blog! This week I made a Chiauhauh, Pug x Maltese, some hairy dog and a cat:P LOL I had someone buy one a while ago and then they asked me to make them a jack sparrow plushie haha I'll have to show you:P
@ KateMossFan yay for sneakers being comfortable and cool again :) I miss wearing comfort ;)
@ zoe lol i love the song i used to sing along with my own made up words when it came on the radio... just for KICKS. ;)
@ Melissa you are so sweet, thanks honey :)
@ Jowy Thanks sweetie, I appreciate it! ;)
@ Claire Awee, thank you, thank you! YES the sneakers' colors drew my attention right away, so I had to get them. Congrats on your close-to 500 as well.. :)
@ Mira You win, but I still love purple a lot, a lot. ;)
@ Leah ahhhahaha 'Sneaker Slut', I like it ;)
@ Mitica Thank you, I love to play around with unexpected colors in my everyday wardrobe. Why not try to match them when on a daily jog too? haha ;)
do you listen to Hip-Hop cause this is so dope HAHA you make me wanna listen to Mrs. Officer and see this outfit
I love everything about this post Erika. It truly shows how you make everyday errand running look cool versus slobby, the fact that anyone can wear Nike sneakers and casual tees with jeans and jacket in Summer, and look amazing (while working out!?!?) just make me envious and inspired all at the SAME TIME. I love you for inspiring me to work out more! It also proves that having style is about knowing how to STYLE clothing together and not about spending all kinds of $$$. Also.. you have one of the best pair of legs ever. EVERRRRRR!!!! Skinny jeans are your best friend. love Lucy(é)
@ jermaine ahahha ..lol, lil' Wayne, right? sometimes... but I mainly like indie-rock ;)
sporty chic.
I'm so bad at working out. Reading things like this makes me feel so lazy :P hehe.
LOVING this casual look!!
i'm so late to comment on this one lady, s o r r y ! but i did read it and check it out when i got the lookbook new post by Erika email yesterday! love the purple kicks and this outfit is casual amazing on you~!!
i wish we could have seen MK! i can't believe Andrew saw her!! im so jealous! and i live in the Old Port! xx
erika! of course, YOU rock sneakers:):) i cant at all, if i wear sneakers i always just go to the gym or else i look outta place:P
ps/ LOVEEEEE this techno. we really should swap playlists one time

Those are some amazing trainers. I love purple- they are striking looking. And nice shot of you jogging away from the camera :D I tend to wear flats or Converse on the weekends, too. Congratulations on the 500th posting!

i love your nike! i used to have ones very similar :)

Those sneakers are adorable! I almost never wear sneakers but that's mostly because I have a funny walk in them because of all of the heels but I would so wear yours :D
And Jonathan Rhys Meyers was the reason I watched The Tudors. Hot hot hot!
Hey gorgeous lady, j'adore your purple themed outfit. The jacket is killer and those trainers are divine. I have a serious thing for coloured trainers and just bought myself replacement navy blue and bright green ones for exercise.
How have you been? Any new shoes (I shouldn't ask, should I?). I bought me a new pair but (and hear out my justification lol) they only cost $40. And they're leather. And awesome. So worth it :)
p.s. isn't that tee divine? I loooove mine.
Have a lovely day bellisima
OMGGGGGGGGG. JONATHAN RHYS MEYERS IS SOOOOOOOOOOOO SEXY! i love watching august rush and hearing him sing. LAWLZ. anyway, you look so cute in your casual clothes!
me gusta mucho tu look,es fresco y te sienta de maravilla.un beso
such a different yet amazingly cool outfit..i am loving the sneakers!!
Lola. :)
I've never thought sneaker we fashionable but you proved me wrong, :)
@ Silvia M que maravillosa, digo las gracias por su comentario :)

Cute trainers (I'm british)! Been looking for cool new gymwear... you've inspired me to investigate nike more carefully!

It's so different seeing you dressed down. But strangly, even when your dressed down you look superb. It's so cute how you still manage to coordinate. I'm the same exact way when I work out, but it just happens on it's own.
Love your nikes;)! I've got almost the same jacket, but mine is lighter purple and It's from h&m ;) Love your blog;)! it is soo nice! Definitely I'll be reading it daily!
