Daily Outfit - Kate - 10/6/10

Guess this is my interpretation of "sexy schoolmarm."

...what's that you say? The phrase is "sexy schoolGIRL"?

Whatevs. Potato potahto.



Love the look of these patent leather brogues. Don't love how they make my feet feel. Don't care.

Daily Outfit - Kate - 9/27/10

It's finally cool enough to wear my new LLBean dress!

Just a shame that I got home so late tonight - too dark for good pictures. Alas.



So comfy. So cute. I love it!

Since the dress is really PURPLE, I decided to keep all other accessories to a minimum. Just the boots, a small necklace, and my amethyst stud earrings.

I bought this necklace back in early summer, when my job was in jeopardy and I had no spending money. I wandered into Macy's on my lunch break and found this and it was just too cute not to own - especially at the bargain clearance price of $4 ;-) It was a big indulgence for me, then. How sad is that?

And oh, how glad I am that things have turned around :-)



I dunno what that face is. Napoleon Dynamite impression? :-P

Dress: LLBean, 2010
Boots: 704b, via DSW, 2009
Necklace: Fossil, via Macy's, 2010
Earrings: oooooooold - gift from parents

Daily Outfit - Kate - 9/1/10

Y'all know what September hails...



BOOT SEASON!

And apparently "shake hands with the mayor* season" and "this outfit is really cute but the pictures suck because my lens's motor is dying" season

As if I had to tell you.

As you can see, now the mayor* is attempting to eat my hand. The mayor* is fickle.



I broke my own rule about "don't wear thrifted clothes 'till you wash them" just for this occasion. I LOVE this skirt and when it was literally sitting on the floor next to the blue plaid top, I couldn't *not* wear them together, y'know?

Also, some random student at work complimented me on the belt. So that's cool.

Skirt: thrifted
Top: NY & Co., 2010
Cardigan: Francesca's Collection, 2009-ish
Belt: thrifted
Boots: LLBean
Earrings: Mum

Random 1970's-esque hair feathering:

WHERE THE HECK DID THAT COME FROM?

*She's not actually the mayor. In case you hadn't figured that out. But she does like to shake hands and kiss babies and make stump speeches**.
**By which I mean, pee on stumps.
