Clothes But Not Quite

Clothes But Not Quite Inspiring you to shop your closet instead of buying. Let’s be friends.👯 Wife to Tim & Mom to James. Five things you might not know about me:

1.

I was born and raised in the city of Saskatoon in the province of Saskatchewan in a far away land named Canada. I grew up madly in love with fashion and beauty, worked in retail fashion and also modeled. After reading The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin, I was inspired to start a style blog to share with others what I have learned over the years. Not wanting to take on this huge task alone, I

asked my son James to help me out. On our blog I share fashion trends, great products (and those to avoid), style on a budget, my outfit of the week, and much more. In my spare time I enjoy singing, shopping, reading, photography, travelling, and writing. I now live in Edmonton, Alberta Canada with my husband Tim and our son James. I'm a devout Catholic who loves God.

2. I'm a tea addict, drinking at several cups a day.

3. I struggle with health challenges.

4. When something goes wrong my first comment is, "Seriousment?!?"

5. I could never be a vegetarian due to my love of hot wings. James is my two year old toddler who loves to make us laugh so he has taken over Monday's Meme. Each Monday, James posts a funny meme that he hopes you like. He loves cars, avocado, bubbles, going to the park, and riding in the car. So grab a coffee, pull up a chair and let's hang out for as little or as long as you please. We won't tell anyone how long you ended up staying! ;)

We hope our blog inspires you to dress better, look better, be healthier, and love life! Questions or comments? Send an email to [email protected] or head on over to our Contact Us page. Don't forget to follow us so you don't miss a thing:

A Sunday look. My son was the photographer. So easy to wear all black and grab a favourite long cardigan or blazer. But I never forget that pop of colour in either a belt, shoes, or bag. Hope you are having a great day! Bring on Spring! 🌺💐🍓

Happy Easter! He has risen just like He said! ✝️💐I love my monochromatic looks but I also love colour. Red mary janes with a gold metallic strap? Yes please! Amazing what you can find at a thrift store! Reasons I love thrifting - clothes don’t end up in a landfill and I don’t have to look like everyone else. Off to enjoy the outdoors playing soccer with my son. ⚽️ 🥅

When my nine-year-old takes a pic of me in his room. 💀 No perfection here! Hint - for a chromatic beige outfit the beiges don’t have to match exactly. Make sure all the beige is either cool or warm otherwise it will look strange. Gold works really great with beige. And for a pop of color, I used beige’s complementary color, which is orange.

Date night? This is one of the outfits I like to wear. I like the mixture of casual with jeans and a nice satin top. Instead of a predictable black purse I grabbed my burgundy bag as shades of green and red and complementary colours. Such an easy outfit to recreate with any jeans or blouse in your wardrobe.

The pants are wide down between the knee and ankle hence the thigh-high boots. I do love a pop of colour!

Our Story

I was born and raised in the city of Saskatoon in the province of Saskatchewan in a far away land named Canada. I grew up madly in love with fashion and beauty, worked in retail fashion and also modeled. After reading The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin, I was inspired to start a style blog to share with others what I have learned over the years. Not wanting to take on this huge task alone, I asked my Boston Terrier Zeke and my son James to help me out. On our blog I share fashion trends, great products (and those to avoid), style on a budget, my outfit of the week, and much more. In my spare time I enjoy singing, shopping, reading, photography, travelling, and writing. I now live in Edmonton, Alberta Canada with my husband Tim, my son James, and Zeke. Five things you might not know about me: 1. I'm a devout Catholic who loves God. 2. I'm a tea addict, drinking at several cups a day. 3. I struggle with health challenges. 4. When something goes wrong my first comment is, "Seriousment?!?" 5. I could never be a vegetarian due to my love of hot wings. James is my two year old toddler who loves to make us laugh so he has taken over Monday's Meme. Each Monday, James posts a funny meme that he hopes you like. He loves cars, avocado, bubbles, going to the park, and riding in the car. Zeke hails from the small town of Beaumont in the province of Alberta. Zeke loves to tell others what not to do on his regular column called Friday's Faux Paw. His spare time is spent eating, playing fetch, eating, taking naps, eating, and going for walks, eating, and writing. So grab a coffee, pull up a chair and let's hang out for as little or as long as you please. We won't tell anyone how long you ended up staying! ;) We hope our blog inspires you to dress better, look better, be healthier, and love life! Questions or comments?
