The Winds are Blowing

I've decided to basically wave the bird to most of the 80's and 90's fashions littering up stores at present. Not all, but most. You know I've been going off about what's available, or shall I say unavailable, for awhile and I'm pretty much over myself and my inability to get motivated to get dressed. I mean let's face it: sweats and a t-shirt can only last so long, even for me (totally lying to myself). One day last week I saw a pile of clothes lying on my bed--all soft tones--and it donned on me: just wear what you want already. Quit your friggin' whining and make a plan. So here's the beginning of my plan: soft fabrics in warm colors, loungy dresses, cushy sweaters, mixed with denim and boots. That's all I've got so far, but at least I'm no longer in my pj's staring into the closet in a trance.

This weekend I did some window shopping and hit a few jackpots, one in particular at Madewell (I go through phases where I seriously love everything in that store). Very rarely is there ever a dress left in my size once sale hits, but this time I was in luck. Eventually I'll get to wear it with the scarf and some otk striggings, but this time the scarf only made it through the pictures before the 80 degree weather sent it flying into the back of the car as we sped off. I can't complain too much -- it'll be cold all winter so might as well enjoy it while it lasts!
