I love this quirky print! It's supposed to be a shirtdress, but the bottom half of the buttons pulled too much when they were closed.  My solution was to take a skirt and wear it underneath, leaving the bottom buttons open and making the dress look more like a coat/smock/robe.

Matching tights completed the look and made for a perfect addition on this cold and rainy day.

This week has been incredibly busy, so its only appropriate that I wear my squirrel eating a nut sweater, because I feel like I've been living in a nut house! (See what I did there?)  Thankfully fall break is coming up and I will get FOUR whole days off in a row! I'm splitting the time between Nick's family's house and camping at Turkey Run with my parents. I can't wait!

My modern interpretation of a classic western style.  I love how each piece plays off of the other in this look.  Knot in the skirt, knotted scarf.  Tortoise shell sunglasses, red shirt.  Denim jacket, fringed boots. The only downside was that the boots gave me blisters after wearing them around campus all day.  But hey, that won't stop me from wearing them again!

I love purple, red, and pink together.  It's like an ode to Valentine's Day that can be worn anytime of the year.  Throw on some fringe booties and colored tights and you're prepared for fall's gusty winds!

Sweater: Pimkie (Spain)
Dress (worn as a skirt): Target
Leggings: Target
Socks: Kohls
Boots: Stein Mart
Sunglasses: Rayban "Clubmasters"
Earrings: H&M

This is the look that results from freezing cold weather, lack of time to get ready, and all of my jeans still soaking wet from the wash last night.  Not too bad, huh?

I have been so busy and frazzled lately - I even lost my debit card in the library today and didn't know it.  Thank you to the whoever found it and turned it in! :)  Sending good karma to you!

Tank: maurices
Cardigan: Target
Pants: Forever 21
Flats: Payless

Pleated, printed, slightly menswear inspired, pajama pants pass the test for me!  A smoking jacket and slippers would totally complete this look - am I right?
