mid-autumnal happiness


basking in the sun

ivory camisole: Banana Republic
pink blouse: American Eagle Outfitters
vest: GUESS
acid wash jeans: GUESS
boots: Payless
necklace: gift

this outfit photographed far better than i thought. don't you hate when outfits look good from the front, but not nearly as well from the back? we were in the workshop today for interior design class (and we will be for the next week), so i had to take that into consideration this morning. plus, it's getting to be below 5 degrees Celsius on some days and i still need to shop for tights and leggings.

after an autumn browse at the mall, i decided to take on the challenge of layering. (i don't stop shopping summer until October, haha. nor is my sunny soul adept at wearing more two articles of clothing at a time on more upper body.) anyhow, this is my slouchy, academic creation; let me know how i did and what i could try for next time! i also found a new staging area- my backyard.

the fabric i`ll be using to make a little footstool in class!

to my own surprise, i've been reading (adolescent bookworms unite!) a tremendous amount lately, which i attribute to the free time allowed by a lenient workload. the book shown here is entitled "Secrets to Happiness", and i'm currently a couple chapters into another, "Relative Happiness" by Lesley Crewe. both have turned out to be very pleasant reads.

sundae





what better time is there to wear sweats than on a miserable sunday ? i mean this seriously... today was a chilly day outside and all i wanted to do was crawl back into bed and go to sleep (hence why i only got out of bed at 12 today).
i tried to make sweats like semi-stylish , off to make my famous hot chocolate and curl up while watching a movie. (maybe black swan to get into character for halloween tomorrow!)
