Tie me up! Tie me down!

When I bought this denim shirt, I had no idea it would soon become one of my very favorite items. The shade of blue is a perfect in-between tone, not too light (very summery) or too dark (more fall-winter) so I can wear it all year round. I wanted to button it all the way up, and then one of my boyfriend’s old ties caught my eye. I loved the quaint little chair print, so I tied myself up. 


As you can see, I’ve had to break out the tights again. Yes, after only 3 months of tightless weather, the tights are back. This is INACCEPTABLE


But I needz to keep ma legz warm. Le sigh. I struggled a bit to find a suitable bottom to go with the top half I already put together, and after some trial and errors I stuck with this skirt because it continued the blue shades, and because you all know I love me some print layering. The shoes are some of my all time faves, I’ll probably be wearing them all the time again this fall.

Not much is up with my life right now, but one of my fave girlfriends and I had this crazy msn conversation last night after midnight being all Kanye meets Jersey Shore and talking in caps and almost laughing so hard that our drinks flew out our noses. It sort of sucks having friends live so far away from you, but internet saves the day again!


Now I’m going to grab myself a bite to eat.

  5. Hi ya Annebeth!!

    Another week in the us for work and another week of fab looks from you!!

    I love the "fairies wear boots" outfit, that could have been straight off the runway!!

    I also enjoyed reading your back to school post (a very me look also that one!! :D) And I agree with all your tips and comments. When I started this job I took the decision to dress "weird" from day one too, I am so glad I did!!

    Tights!! It really is not right is it!! :D

    Hope you week is a good one and your Kitty is on the mend. X

  7. Hey Kim, glad to hear from you again! thanks! I absolutely loved the back to school look and my fairies wear boots look too :) and no, I'm sure I'll be sick of tights when I reach a certain age after having to wear them pretty much ALL the time. And I'll be sure to find a job where I can dress weird too :D

    thanks everyone!

  9. No, not this season, but this model returns every season so they probably have the same shoe but maybe in different colors? I know there's a gorgeous brown version too!
