Friday! Friday! Friday! And I have to go to the lab, classes AND work... so getting dressed for all three was a struggle...
Today I am wearing three things that I almost didn't buy but thankfully did because I can't live without them. And that was a terribly constructed sentence...
First this skirt, which, oh my goodness, is aces for sure. I wear the shit out of this skirt.
Shirt: American Apparel
Skirt: The Goodwill not really near my house
Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell
Beaded Collar: A thrift store in Bowie, MD
Then these shoes almost didn't make the cut as I was torn violently between "I can't live without their gaudy majesty" and, well, "their gaudiness, although majestic, is too much."
My boyfriend absolutely loved them and since he almost never expresses an opinion on matters such as shoes, I heeded his advice and kept them.
So, as I mentioned, I have to stop by the lab today to "decant and replenish the chloroform" and this is what I am wearing. The shoes are closed-toe, that counts for something.
And finally this collar. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this collar. When I saw it I was on vacation to the east coast and had spent an exorbitant amount of money already (it was Christmas time and shopping was getting did) and felt I couldn't justify purchasing it for myself. I finally caved and it ended up being 50% off! Who doesn't love surprise sales?!
Have fabulous days anyone who might unwittingly stumble across this blog :)
I LOVE this outfit! That skirt is amazing, the color, the ruffles, the length, the whole darn thing!!! And those shoes are fantastic. I also like how you put the necklace UNDER the collar. Great idea. I'll have to try it!

Love thge colors! And its well put together.
ReplyDeleteWow I have a thing about add-on collars that you can wear with all sorts and build up a collection of. I've got half a mind to make one out of granny squares, as it's just the type of sad-old-grandma thing I'd do...
