A CARDIGAN IN JUNE!

> I actually planned out an outfit post and I completely forgot to photograph the outfit! Thus these photos are from the end of the day. GRRR. Silly me, I remembered when it was too late! Anyhow! This is what I wore out with my bestie for coffee yesterday... I can't believe I'm wearing a Cardi in JUNE?!?! It's a bit chilly down my side so the Cardigan did me some good! I wore a pretty simple outfit, I wanted to look and feel "effortless and comfortable" (if that's possible!?!) and I think I pretty much achieved it (& managed to look a little chubby too!) ... I wore a shoulder bag with this outfit but I didn't photograph it. My makeup was pretty simple as well, black liner, mascara and lip balm (not shown) and since I had taken these photos at the end of my day my makeup seemed to have disappeared! So no snaps of that! I realize I'm not very good with outfit posts...I will try to do better next time! Promise! xo

Outfit/11012011

I felt like doing an OOTD for you girls, so I did and here it is. Besides the fact that today was my first day of my 2nd semester (of my 2nd year) at College it was a pretty chill day. I don't dress up for school, I think it's a little unnecessary to get all dolled up for only a few hours and to LEARN and get an EDU-MA-CATION. But that's just my opinion....

Anyways. Here is todays outfit: pretty simple, laid back, a little preppy (if you want to call it that) and comfortable! I am all about comfort when it comes to choosing what I wear for school. Details are below, I was wearing black leather boots by Blowfish, however they were wet from the snow outside and water + carpet = bad combination. I apologize for the amateur photography, I know I suck, LOL! Hope you enjoyed my first OOTD, let me know if you would like to see more.

If you are not particularly interested in purchasing the pieces, then this segment may be a source of inspiration for you to draw from for your own outfits.
