I want to dress monochromatically this fall. I'm stepping in that direction, not quite there yet. First, blue hair!

Experiment

I just did a major closet purge, and this skirt almost went to the Salvation Army. But I kept it around contingent upon me wearing it within the next week. I'm so glad I did! After finally figuring out how to wear it, it has become one of my most dependable stand-by's. =)

Love That Cuff

I'm a bit of a willow tower, all 6'1'' of me clambering through the world with spider legs 36 inches long. I never, ever find pants that are long enough - maybe just once or twice a year. It's also why you'll *never* see me in heels. But these gems, these sweet glorious 40" breeches sent from heaven, these were fashioned for a freak like me. I just lurve them.

neck scarf : label unknown
jeans : secondhand Guess, who knows why they're so long . . .
sneaks : Union made sweatshop free Converse knockoffs
