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

boots: steve madden

while this guy spent a good portion of the last day of 2011 cleaning out his closet and taking a buttload of clothes to goodwill, i reached into the depths of mine for some nye inspiration. i’ve only worn this dress once before because its pretty loud and really little. i tried my best to make it a little less scandalous and more age-appropriate but still dressy and fun for our evening of excitement. also, i flippin love these booties. i kind of wish i could wear them everyday. 

dress, bracelet: f21

sweater: hand me down (although i think still f21)

socks: kohls

clutch: gift

necklace: hand me down

ring: kate spade

shoes: journey’s - cant remember the exact brand right now :-/

ps - last time i wore this dress, we were bowling: 

i caught this light by chance friday at work and it made me so happy. i just love pink sky so much.

make that five, actually, counting last night. i wasn’t able to get a ton of time off work for this visit home, so while i’m here i needed to make sure i see every extension of my crazy family and squeeze in as many traditions as possible. i am fat and exhausted, but if those are the worst of my problems, consider me one lucky girl. 

top, pants, belt: jcrew

vest: borrowed from gramma

not gonna lie, i totally copy-catted this outfit. i saw a pin on pinterest and immediately knew i could do the same thing. hooray inspiration! i don’t know if you can see it or not, but the tote says “i love sweets!! i am happy when i’m eating!” pretty much me in a nutshell.

i love the flea market. and lately it seems like every time i go it gets better and better. 

{below} my finds from this week: an adorable wall hanging, the big sleep by raymond chandler, and hipster glasses of my own so i can give nontra back the ones i’ve had since halloween. 

(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.
