Androgynous

With my super short hair, I decided to do a little experimentation with an androgynous look tonight. I'm heading out in a bit for sushi with my fried Cory, and since I generally dress very femininely, I thought it would be kind of cool to play around with something I wouldn't usually wear! I had flats on at first, but thought that was a little TOO masculine, so I switched into these velvet-strapped heels I got a few months ago but haven't worn much yet...

I'd been lounging & studying all day in a Bonnaroo t-shirt my brother picked up for me this summer, so I just threw on some black jeans & a cropped tuxedo jacket for a suit-like look... I think I like the whole outfit!

Casual Thursday

I've been having a lot of insomnia, so today I woke up late & had to throw on something fast to get to a class and a bunch of meetings! I need to look somewhat professional, because my last meeting of the day was a review of my thesis outline with my advisor. I picked this silk blouse because I love the big floppy collar, and the cardigan is one of my favorites!

I picked up this little red flower at Trader Joe's the other day - I can't get another cat (since Winnie's staying with my parents) but I wanted something alive and colorful in my apartment...

Houndstooth & Ripped Denim

I was feeling extra tired when I woke up this morning (a terrible bout of insomnia kept me awake last night) so I kind of just threw on the most comfortable thing I could find. I've had these jeans for about 7 years - the holes are all natural wear, nothing man-made about them! I'll throw them away only when they become obscene...

I picked up this jacket last fall in a shop in Bloomington, IN while I was visiting my brother at IU. It's one of my favorite jackets because of the shape and the giant hood. The hood makes a big collar when it's down, but it's sooooo warm when I put it up. Usually I don't like hoods, but this is a definite exception.
