Joie de vivre

First, a word on the pants. They are from The Limited, by way of Goodwill, they are a size so miniscule that I wish I could wear them tag-out, they are exquisitely, and made from a lovely warm wool. It was unexpected love at first sight.

They are also PLAID.

Immediately after buying them I called my mom. "I just bought some really awesome pants! You'll never guess what they look like!"

"Hahaha, they aren't plaid are they, hahaha, like you'd ever be caught dead in plaid, *chortle*."

I also love the bag. I've been looking for a large but stylish tote/purse, and I think this fits the bill.

And finally, a hearty thank you to radiantlove for the most amazing necklace - I should have taken a closeup, it's strings and strings of little tiny coins - and Catherine, you'll be getting a proper thankyou for the entire box very soon. :)

Coming soon, watching for a Fashion09:Best of post.

Today feels like Christmas Eve to me. :)

(Also, I HAI I CAN HAZ ORANGE.)

( More days )

The skirt is one of the relatively few things I've bought new (though probably not full price), and it's been worth every penny.

( Days 345 and 346 )

Learning to love the cold.

( Day 342 )

It's cold and wet, people!

( Days 338 and 339 )

Wearing a lot of pants because I have bruises all over my legs from putting up Christmas decorations.

( Days 332 and 333 )

The ONLY reason I am wearing this today is that it has pockets.

( Day 325 )

I'm having trouble getting accustomed to the idea of colder weather. Winter and I are not friends.

( Day 320 )

I used to wear this belt all the time - I like the little bit of punch it can add to an otherwise girly outfit.

( Day 316 )

I'm not sure I've ever seen two cap-sleeved items layered together, but why not? I think it works.
