at 6:30am, I make some strange outfit choices...

I got to get out of work early on Thursday the 30th. The trade off, I had to go in early as well. Apparently my closet thought this was a good combination at 6:30 in the morning:







I don't think this outfit is bad, it's just interesting and kind of a departure from my usual style. Also - this skirt needs to be adjusted. My mom found it at a thrift store, and I am pretty sure it is from the mid 90's. I say that because the waist is SUPER tiny compared to the rest of the skirt.

When and Where:

• Thursday, December 30th, 2010
• to work

What I'm Wearing:

• red coat - J. Crew from 2004
• mock turtle neck - Macy's
• belt - Gap
• skirt - Thrifted (Ann Taylor - my guess is mid 90's)
• tights - Chinese Laundry from TJ Maxx
• boots - Apt 9 from Kohl's

On my way home I snagged my tights, and was finally fed up with the super tight waistband on this skirt - so here is my second take on the outfit:




When and Where:

• later that day - Thursday, December 30th, 2010
• out shopping with my roommate and to dinner with friends

What I'm Wearing:

• red coat - J. Crew from 2004
