It's Inspiration Monday over at two birds and this week we had a choice between three stylish ladies! I'm not a decisive person so after hemming and hawing for a while, I finally decided on Cat's chic travel look.  Although I wasn't travelling, I was lunching so no better excuse to wear a fun scarf and fitted blazer! I wore this outfit on Friday when it was still warm enough out to show my toes and I'm glad I squeezed into these shoes one last time because now it's cold and dreary in Ottawa and my boots are going to be making appearances very shortly!

Inspiration: So You Think You Can Dance host Cat Deeley

This leopard print bag (bought a few years ago) has become my go to purse for fall.

I bought these shoes for $10 at Charlotte Russe last year on my trip to Santa Monica. 

My nails are getting long- vampy pole dancer long but we all need a little vixen sometimes!

I love the polka dotted pattern of this BCBG Max Azria blazer I picked up thrifting for only $5!

Oversized jewel toned scarves are perfect for fall and can be worn many different ways.

My hair is usually pin straight and boring so recently I've been adding some gel after showering for a quick and easy curl!

Here's my promised video (in all its cut off head glory)- linking up to ColourBlind's Thrifters Anonymous post (warning: this video is rampant with mad cat, sick sniffles and awkward shots of cleavage- thought you should be pre-warned!) And unless you have 16 minutes of free time to hear me ramble away about my recent thrifted goods, you may want the Cole's notes version- just a suggestion! ;) If you do find time to watch it all, kudos you have now been exposed to the eccentricities of Emily!
