And once more I frolic

So, I'm not really a big fan of snow. Its not so much a dislike of snow, but the cold that accompanies it. But taking outfit pictures have given me an excuse to frolic in it. And I do so enjoy frolicking. 

The snow also inspired the use of my new/old item, the lace top featured below. I've also revitalized my use of scarves. Time was, I wouldn't leave the house in the winter sans scarf, but this winter I've been very lax. Which is a shame, because thanks to a trip to Italy, I have many fabulous options.

Yeah, crazy blogger in the snow in short sleeves. But pulling out my summer tops not only gives me easy choices for use as my new/old item, but also reminds me that the sun will, eventually, come out.

Me being awesome with my clock necklace. The guard girls I help instruct gave me an award for "Most Likely to Know What Time it Is" for this necklace. And yes, that is a picture of Neil Patrick Harris behind my hand. About being awesome.

So, I tried a stoic, dreamy type face. It sorta worked, no? Quite the contrast to last post, chock full of my wonderfully...ahem...quirky expressions. 

The new/old item is this striped white skirt I thrifted last year. Its Talbots, via a local consignment shop, and a wonderfully classic little basic. It's a little wrinkled and caught on my tights in these pics, but I'm not so worried as I kind of look a little orphan-esque anyways. 

Pardon me while I cuddle with this sweater -- which has elbow patches! I love it to bits, and it is another one of my 7 dollars well spent.

Very casual

So, I've relapsed, dear readers. Into my college uniform -- shirt, cardigan, jeans and flats. I generally dress up more nowadays (the loose schedule helps -- I was a work-a-holic insane student). But once in a while I get a little comfy. 

The new/old item is the flowered cardigan. I spotted it at Aeropostale (a place I rarely shop) in the store window. A few months later I happened to be wandering the mall after my shift, and wandered in to see if it was still there. It was, on clearance for 7 dollars. I love it when that happens. 

 Faces were not my strong suit this day.  All of them are either slightly scandalized or very cheesy.

See my awesome Children's accessories? Yeah, I own polka-dot little girls earrings with little metal bows. And the matching bracelet.

Sweet Somethings

So, I am in love with this dress. First off, it is a shirtdress which FITS. Anything with buttons is usually a challenge to my considerable bosomage. It is also one of many pieces which is slowly convincing me that my life love is Old Navy. It's also a nice delicate chambray, which is one of my favorite fabrics. 

The Cardigan, however, is my BOC item. I have a lot of cardigans, not many of them get limelight. Sadly, this one may be getting retired as it is too short buttoned up, and the colors, when you look at the pattern closely, are just a little off -- I'm not super matchy, but I like something to go off of. 

I really can't tell whether I'm wearing my purple tights or black ones.... Hence why I should be better at this and post my pictures whilst I remember what I actually wore.

When I got home I decided I should try the shirt under. I liked it better, but alas, I was home and comfy.
