this girl did.

For some reason I have really, really been feeling the color yellow/mustard lately. Proof: the cardigan, my nails, and now this perfect little dress that’ll arrive just in time to celebrate my three year anniversary with Chris. February 8, get ready. I’ll be strutting my freezing butt off just to be looking good for my man. 

Fine, I’ll be wearing tights. Probably two pairs to try to double up on warmth. And a coat, duh, when we are outside. Stop hassling me.

The maroon cardigan? Same brand and style as my charteuse (aka yellow/mustard) cardigan but just happens to be $20 cheaper. The “rhinestone bib” necklace? I admit, I don’t know how this will go over. I don’t usually wear bibs or rhinestones. Cross your fingers it looks classy with a nice fitted top to wear to work or this baby will be returned. 

Conclusion: Despite my gravitation to wearing neutrals, I’m warming up to bold colored garments. And apparently to blingy bibs too.

OK, so I have written and deleted two paragraphs/rants. The quick and less annoying version to read amounts to this:

• For some reason, I’m just feeling all out of sorts lately. 

Blah. I’ll do better next post, promise.

 A mystery package arrived from best friend M this week. Inside? Pug bookends!

Awkward moment of the week: the moment you realize you really do need to go grocery shopping because you are completely out of toilet paper. And have resorted to using tissues.

The boys looking so serious.

And not so serious.

Being indecisive with my photo format today and trying something different. Probably won’t stick with it but I like it for this post.

I can’t think of what to write. But here are two things that come to mind from this week.

1. Day three into new semester and so far it’s been a mess. Rearranging and dropping classes, buying and returning books (spent $500 on books this time), and too many appointments with my adviser. 

2. Today was a blustery, very cold day. On my walk home from campus I was forced to get sprayed by not one but two sprinklers in order to reach the crosswalk. Wet face. Wet hair. Wet jacket. As you can imagine it was an awful walk the rest of the way.
