Stripe Viv & Matchstick Capris

I brought some new kika items with me to Sweden so I will try to show off some outfits while I am here. Almost everything that I brought to Sweden is kika but I only like to show off the things that are still for sale. The tank top stripe matches the stripe on the Cameron skirt that I wore earlier. I don't see it available to order online but you can always email me to place an order. Let me know what you think!

Cameron & Viv in Sweden

I am not sure how much time I will have to showcase outfits while I am here on vacation but I will try! The weather has been super chilly (in the 40's and 50's) so I haven't got to wear much summer clothing. I did put on this outfit for midsummer which I ended up having to put on leggings, two shirts and a sweater and I was still cold. I also didn't get good photos of just the tank and skirt so I will have to try again another day.

Sorry for the bad photo but I wanted to show off the side slit in the skirt which is hidden from this photo.
The slit is on the left side of the skirt and goes from the knee down to the floor.

You can see the slit a little more. I am wearing black leggings under the skirt. The sweater is not kika!

Fashion Fun at Runway

I had the great pleasure of sharing camera time with my roommate and fellow kika superstar, Beth Holm. We took turns taking photos of each other in different outfits that we tried on at Runway which is our training and reveal of our Spring 2014 Collection. 

We have so much fun in the "Try On Room" which is filled with TONS of new clothing samples. I have a method to my time in this room as I make sure to try on each item to see what size fits me. I can then tell if things run too big or too small. I also ask people who are not my size what they liked and looks good on them. It is exhausting but fun! Then we have a chance to buy these items too. I took 3 home including the dress you see me in below.

Business Attire for eWomen Network

It is official! I am an eWoman now! I went to an event in August and it was filled with amazing women and it had an electric energy. I knew I wanted to be a part of this dynamic group of women. I had to move some things around and back out of some other commitments to make room for this in my budget and my time as well. October 17th, 2013 was my first meeting as a member and it was great. Next month I am doing a vendor table so I have to decide how I want to set that up and what I want to bring. Let me know if you have any ideas for me! Also, check out my eWomen Profile too. 

I decided to wear something more professional this time. In August I wore Charissa which was a great dress and I got lots of compliments on it. I decided to go with a new blazer that arrived and I love how it looks tailored but it is made out of sweatshirt material! I also love the antique brass buttons on Nancy as well. I didn't have a matching Navy/Ink skirt but the heathered Ponte knit Susan skirt did just fine. I kind of like that it isn't totally matchy-matchy. Let me know what you think.

Back view. Oops! I wish I had straightened my skirt but maybe you can see this great little kick pleat detail on the skirt?

I think I wore it tucked in with my jacket but I generally like things untucked.
