Thinking Pants

So, I dubbed these my “thinking pants” because they’re soft and comfortable for those extra long stretches of writing (and thinking) time I occasionally have to do at work. I can write a marathon in these pants, basically. Like pyjamas, except office-appropriate on a Friday.

This is the worst prettiest necklace ever. Shortly after I selfied this, another rhinestone fell out. The second one in, like, 4 wears. Not cool, J. Crew Factory. Not cool.

The $5 Outfit

Ok, that title might be just a leeeeeettle bit misleading. It was this floral Deletta top that set me back $5 (thanks, Value Village), but I think we can agree that it makes the whole outfit. So.

I think we can also agree that these blue (suede) shoes go with everything, yes? I do wish they were leather instead of (faux) suede, because I will cry hot tears when they fall apart on me and I want to postpone that indignity as long as I can. Is J. Crew bringing back its Cece flats? They should. And the next order of business should be to bring them back in this colour.

I couldn’t let the summer end without wearing my potato sack one final (really final) time. We had some great times together; I couldn’t have asked for more from a $13 piece of chambray, really.

Let’s look at my nails:

Pretty. Still loving this Free People cuff. Not the most practical piece of jewelry (it easily twists off my wrist), but it adds a dash of style to the most basic of basic outfits.
