if you follow me on twitter, you know that yesterday, i felt like i was wearing pjs. i didnt realize though how much i looked like i was wearing pjs until going through the photos. holy moley. lesson learned: these pants must be worn with heels. second lesson learned: only double up on cardigans with skinny jeans or leggings. i was all over the place here. live and learn, i guess.

cardigans, pants, necklace: f21

top: hand me down

we came across this beauty on the walk to the farmers market sunday morning. it was love at first sight. i went a little nuts, sorry. but - do you see this?! come on now. 

also, this is my first attempt at using katie’s pencil box method of photo editing. i’m in love. 

promptly after taking these photos, i declared that i wished i could be a nudist. it would be awesome. two reasons. one: i love being naked in the sunshine. there is nothing {much} better. two: i’m just so much more comfortable without clothes on. when you’re dressed, theres always elastic thats too tight, or a waistband digging in, or a scratchy fabric bugging you. in this outfit, i’m relatively comfortable, but i still find myself constantly tugging at parts of it. also, as much as i love fashion and care about how i look, i hate getting dressed. i always have. is that weird?

i’m pretty sure i have more tops representing california or los angeles than one girl needs. but this girl loves la. why? i dont know, maybe its because it’s january third and i’m outside in a chiffon skirt and a denim jacket with the sleeves rolled up. pretty sure that has a lot to do with it. but look - leaves on the ground! see, we totally have seasons.

welcome to wisconsin, folks. it. is. cold. if you follow me on twitter, you know i flew home yesterday and it was basically a nightmare. but it is good to be home with my family, despite the frigid temps. this was my airport outfit - i always have grand plans of dressing up for travel, but leggings always seem to win. easy slip on and off shoes are essential for flying, and a scarf for keepin warm on the plane. 

shirt: vintage

tank, leggings: f21

scarf: “borrowed” from mom

socks: target

boots: steve madden

photos by mom!

(classic amy face. i’m so awkward.)

i distinctly remember wearing an outfit almost exactly like this when the movie now and then came out. what grade was i in…? fifth i think. i had brown stirrup pants, slouchy grey wool socks, brown boots and an oversized sweater that i might have borrowed from my mom. people have always said i looked like christina ricci and i wanted to be her in that movie so bad. not that she wore anything like that, but in my head it was an outfit she would have put together. who knew sixteen year later i’d be wearing the same thing again.
