Wednesday - Nifty Thrifty Wardrobe

So much of what I wore on Wednesday was thrifted. I like Wednesday's outfit much better than I did Tuesdays, probably because it involves color (shock) and a necklace that I adore.

This is the first and so far only pair of skinny pants I own. I tried them on at the shop on a whim. One of those these-will-look-terrible-on-me-but-I'm-trying-them-on-anyway-if-for-no-other-reason-than-to-have-a-good-laugh kind of things. I was so surprised when they worked! Though, to be honest, I often try on things I think will look terrible because more often than not, those pieces wind up working on me much better than my stand-by shapes.

jeans - Crossroads (don't know the brand)
white shirt - Gap (this one is positively ancient)
green shirt - free from a commercial shoot
necklace - Junior League Thrift

The cat in the corner is really our kitten. He's grown to appreciate the taste of knit things, mostly clothing, so we have to keep him away from the closet, hall coat tree, and laundry. He's eaten (and by eaten I mean ingested) 2 gloves, parts of one of my favorite sweaters, parts of my pajamas, a pair of socks, etc and so forth. We call him "The Beast" for obvious reasons. Don't worry all you kitty-lovers out there, we're watching him to be sure he's passing all this grand stuff and that his behavior isn't changing or anything. So far so good.

What happens when you feel self-conscious taking your own picture in your office before jetting off to work? You laugh at yourself. That's what.
