Just So You Know That This is Real-Life…

...This is really what I wore today to work. 

Do I look like a hobo who didn’t shower?  Yes’m.

Was it raining and that made me basically give up?  You got it.

Am I exhausted and ready for a serious vacation?  You bet.  :)

yellow striped shirt—Ralph Lauren, old old
purple scarf--Gap, remixed
skinny jeans--Gap, remixed
rubber rhinestone flats--J.Crew, remixed
black headband--CVS/Target/one of those

But please don’t think I’m all-depressing, all-the-time.  My plan was to run after work and after bathing last night, I saw no need to waste water.  It was raining, so my hair was going to be up by necessity regardless.  Wait…is that all gross?  I really do maintain personal hygiene, I swear.  I just knew it was going to be one of those days of sort of lounging and sitting on the computer for the bulk of the day, so I thought comfort should be a priority.  And the students are mostly off-campus by now, so if I look a little rough around the edges, well, all the fewer folks to witness!

I also often read some of my favorite fashion blogs only to see people dressed to the nines every time they post.  I guess this is my way of saying that I certainly don’t step out of the pages of a magazine every day (shucks!! cat’s out of the bag!) and that some days, I wear the equivalent of sweats with no makeup.  Ta da!

Please continue to read….or leave your inspiration!  I have an outfit I’m really excited about for tomorrow!
