STACKED

And here is one of the final pieces of Rodarte for Target that I got in December. I will admit that when I first received it, it appeared a little lack-luster in the packaging–dare I say?–almost boring <gasp!>. But after putting it on and inspecting the details of the cardigan, I realized that like the other pieces I purchased….it was a mini piece of art. The intricacy and delicacy of the fabric is amazing for the price–not to mention it has great layering possibilities! Because I wasn’t sure on color, I also have this in yellow; bwahaha!

Dan and I crept around like sleuths in the library yesterday to get some cool shots in between the stacks. It’s funny how every single sound is amplified; every shutter snapping is like glass breaking. I think we did pretty well considering we were tip-toeing and keeping watch through rows of books the entire time. And ventricular repolarization???? Super fun! I think if I could somehow learn without having to be given stupid exams on the material, I would consider going back to school. School was fun and I can never turn down learning something new and fascinating. You’d be surprised by how the most random and obscure facts can come in handy in certain situations.

I think after looking at my other Rodarte posts, found here & here, I still like my leopard lace dress the most out of all three…thoughts?

    Aww YOUR SMILE IS SO ADORABLE. I love all your rings, and that lace cardigan really does seem to have tons of potential for layering :) I’m definitely loving the leopard lace dress the most out of the three, but they’re all amazing either way <3

    I wanted to by that cardigan, but I was a little skeptical when I tried it on too so I didn’t buy it. After seeing this post I think I’m going to have to go and get it today!!!

    Yes! Lovely pictures and you look so beautiful in that cardigan and I really like how you paired it with a simple white tee from AA. I really wanted that cardigan in black but they were sold out everywhere and on ebay the price they want is just way too ridiculous..so no thank you. Anyways, you gorgeous as always! xoxo

    the cardi is so hot! what size do you wear in the sexualitee? the sizes i saw looked massive and i was concerned i’d be swimming in it.

    Hi Vanessa
    I’ve been following your blog for a few days now, looking through every post you have made since you started your blog, and I must say I am really overwhelmed by how awesome you look in your pictures, and how well you put different items together, so major kudos to you ;-)

    I just wanna ask one quick question: That store you keep mentioning, the one you are starting, is it an online store where people can buy the clothes you wear in the pictures?

    Keep up the good work. :-)
    Hugs from Rikke, Denmark

    amazing outfit! i love the cardi so much!! it looks great on you :) and the setting for these pictures is perfect!

    There’s no Target in Montreal :( or in Qc…and i didn’t know you could order it online….though i’m not sure they ship North so knowing may have served zero purpose anyways. Is there a Target in BC? or did you travel to one?

    omgosh i know- the amazeogs in black are great! SO wish they shipped here. if they did, like you said, maybe i;d check the site out more often and MAYBE i could have scored the black ones already lol!
