one-legged pony

And we're back to layers for warmth! (what, is it spring now?  really??)  I worked forever on that far hand.  It was being stubborn.

red heart

sweater - Sweater Project (Younkers)
pants - Old Navy
shoes - Vigoss

Wearing red for Japan.  One of my friends was shocked to see me wearing pants, eh heh.  It's true I don't wear them often (particularly on Sundays when I see her)...  These dress pants are really, super comfortable though.  They're really soft, and flowy...

almost-vday

sweater - Takeout
both skirts - Wet Seal

Almost Valentine's Day!!  I get really excited about this holiday every year. I can only blame all those happy childhood memories of Valentine's Day parties in elementary school.  Maybe it's my love for sweets.  Or my love for pink, for lace and frills and hearts. In any case, I love it.

extra layers

turquoise sweater - American Eagle
red sweater - Takeout
jeans - l.e.i
tights - from Younkers

A simple, warm double-sweater outfit.  (man, this is genius.  I need to find more warm-but-thin sweaters to layer...)  Plus knit tights under my jeans.  Mmm, cozy~

merry Christmas eve!

Christmas Eve at last!  Reli-li-lief!!  I considered wearing this fitted turtleneck sweater under my green vneck but decided against it. This was a good thing, because I later realized I already did that combo last Christmas eve!

Even though we were sitting around most of the time at my aunt's, my feet were still sore after spending the night in heels. It's astonishing what one will do for cute looks. (but the shoes are so very very cute!)

more winds

It's been very windy the last couple days—yesterday we had a few tornado sirens go off! Fall is a very windy season.

This poor jacket has been in my closet for years, ever since my first visit to Plato's Closet, and this can only be the first or second time I've worn it. I was so overwhelmed and in awe of all the STUFF they had there for so CHEAP, I picked up a couple of rather ridiculous things. Sometimes I know just what to do with a ridiculous piece of clothing,  but sometimes I end up with a floral corduroy jacket and I'm stumped. Today, though, I looked in my closet and that jacket just seemed so sad and unloved that I had to give it a try. Jacket, I do like you even though you are so strange.

The boots, on the other hand, have gotten plenty of wear in the years I've owned them. They were picked up on an impulse during a late-night Meijer run with dorm-mates (who of course only encouraged the purchase), and I've never regretted it. I love them, I love them, I love them! I only wish I had a pair of these boots in every colour of the rainbow!!

(also, because it might be confusing—that's half an apple in my hand, and a purse with a flower-topped pen on my shoulder. I was eating the other half of the apple while I drew this.)
