Faux Pas

I love this vest. Although, I'm pretty sure I look like a crazy person when I wear it because I keep touching it, petting myself- definitely must look crazy. Best part about it? It was on sale and I paid just about nothing for it. I always get really excited the first time I wear something new. It was particularly sad when I wore this because I ended up feeling so warm in the office, I took it off and barely wore it. Oh well, guess I'll just look forward to next time.

Mute

Apologies for my absence! I had great ideas for posts when things got busy this week but I guess busy got here sooner than I realized, so there will be a little less writing but hopefully just as much posting!

This Weekend...

Went away for the weekend for some relaxing before the craziness kicks in this week. There's something so relaxing about train rides. As eager as I am to arrive, it's the only time I really have to myself- to think, to read (aka continue onto the next Hunger Games). Spend most of Saturday night just lazing around and couldn't figure out whether to go out for dinner or stay in. We decided the latter and dabbled in some cooking and am so glad we did, the result was delicious. Sunday night, well I was doing what I'm sure most of my fellow Americans were, watching the Super Bowl- and loudly rooting for the Giants. What a way to end the weekend...

Hello, Friday

Good thing I take pictures right before I leave to work or there would not be much to look at here. Lately, it's been 12 hour days which results in me crashing as soon as I get home.  I get a good amount of sleep at night but going nonstop for that amount of time just takes its toll on me. Typically, I resemble a delirious person by the day's end and my hair is on the other side of my face and there isn't an ounce of make-up left. Here's to looking and acting like a real person over the weekend.

Camel

I bought this blazer/jacket (?) on sale at H&M some months ago. I had been looking for a camel blazer and quickly snatched this up only to find when I put it on, that it was this strange length.  I didn't know what to make of it but decided to buy it anyway. I'm glad I did. It's easily thrown over something casual- bringing the sophistication of a blazer with a modern twist. Shopping job well done...





Leopard


Took these photos when it was cloudy out so had to do some tweaking, because they came out so dark. I like the demure feel but nothing beats unedited photos. Secret style confession: I never was a fan of leopard print. I thought it was tacky and too loud. All of a sudden, I went on a leopard print kick- this skirt, flats, and a cardigan. I would never wear any of these pieces together, and I always tone it down when I wear any of them, but I think it's pretty safe to say I love leopard.

Outdoors

Sunlight. I love what they do to pictures. They're instantly that much more interesting. I wish I had the time (and confidence) to take pictures outside everyday. Hope your week is off to a good start!
