Stripey and Green





Tomorrow's the start of a new year which means the start of a new planner.  I'm an organizer and a bit of a type-A so this excites me! I'm not going to be out partying late and it's the last day ever of 2013, so I'm in casual mode today.  I've got a stripey knit dress that is 3/4 sleeved, so I paired it with a silk-blended kelly green boyfriend cardigan to keep warm.  I actually (re: finally) changed up the earrings (just for today) and have my "fishing lure" ones on.  They were buried under some other old jewelry I hardly wear; I was reminded of them after watching the Fringe S2 episode: Night of Desirable Objects. And now I want to go fishing! I miss fishing. In the summer at least. It's all paired with some dark blue tights, my trusty boots, and more silver accessories (I go with 4 when my hair's pulled back).  Yes, and Happy New Year to you!

Color-Block Polka Dot







Back @ work here, and though I was sighing as I read 12°F for the morning's temp, I still trudged in.  Each winter day that's gray and gives me chills to the bone has me dreaming about spring! summer! the beach! (though that last one is many, many driving hours away).  I have a color-blocked twin-set that I separated to pair with my polka-dot skirt today.  The sub-zero temp boots are keeping my toes toasty, and I just love Dec.'s gamer magnet from @lootcrate for my filing cabinet.  My trusty cardigan, going on about 7 years together now, and I will keep trying to stay warm!
