yesterday the wind messed with my 'do, and today it was raining too hard for outdoor pictures. and so you get a glimpse into my little, still-not-unpacked apartment and my cluttered bookshelf.
cardigan- Ruche
pants- American Apparel
gold shirt- AA
belt- AA
knee highs- we love colors
shoes- Seychelles fr. Solestruck
...can you tell I was also dressing for work?
I think the 40s presented a good way to meld dressing for AA and my blog! I always planned on wearing high-waisted pants (very 40s) and wedges (a la Allie fr. The Notebook). of course cardigans came on the scene in a big way in the 1940s, and a cute collared shirt pulled the look together.
I even tried a doing the pin-curl waves, but it turned out a little more like crimping... at least I got the plum lipstick! apparently it was popular in the late 40s.
and no, I did not wear these shoes to work. I still have it made it to heels-on-an-8-hour-shift status.
now if you'll excuse me, I'm exhausted and going to bed. I got home an hour and a half ago and I have to get up for work again in seven hours. I hate when they do that.
night!

I don't usually comment, but I really love this outfit. Those pants look so good on you, I want to go out and buy them for myself. You totally deserve commission at AA for getting people to shop there after reading your blog!
