Just Peachy

 Today's ensemble features:

Sweater: Gap
Skirt: Target via Goodwill
Shoes: H&M

Have you caught on to how much I like thrift store shopping yet?

Sorry about the terrible pose in the second photo. In all the other pictures I tried to take, I'm looking off at a bizarre angle, keeping an eye on my next door neighbor's dog, who was watching me intently through the fence.

I hardly own any peach/orange colored clothing, so it seemed like a sensible move to pair these two things together. I really like this sweater, although I can never tell if it suits me or not. If you have a darker complexion (like I do), then I always think that oranges and yellows and light browns are tricky colors to work with. Hopefully this sweater is the right kind of orange to work for me. Mmm, peachy!

The Mid-term Blues

My first mid-term exam of the semester was today, and I woke up early to finish studying for it. Somehow, I decided that blue striped knee high socks would help me in my quest for knowledge. Hey, I don't have to look professional on Thursdays... and my legs were cold this morning.

Today's jaunty ensemble features:

dress: H&M
shirt: BCG via Goodwill
socks: H&M
shoes: Walmart via Goodwill

It grieves me that we don't live anywhere near an H&M. It grieves me, but it pleases my wallet. Anyway, I'm going to go and try to cross off some of my to-do list before the big party starts in our department. There's free beer, which causes almost unheard-of levels of excitement among the grad students. Ciao, bellas!
