STRIPES (part 2!)

Although this makes no sense, I think the impending move has made me completely lazy. There are still so many things that need to be done around the apartment before Friday, but I've just felt stuck. I think I've just done so much in the last month that it feels like I couldn't possibly do more cleaning and packing.

So instead I've been watching Netflix Watch Instantly (my favorite thing ever) and knitting. KNITTING! I seem to be obsessed with knitting lately, especially baby things for my still-cooking nephew. And that's all well and good and everything, but I really need to finish this apartment situation. Oh dear.

And since I've been terribly behind on outfit posts (because I haven't really been wearing any outfits) here is something from last week:

purple dress, pansy lane

Urban Outfitters dress & headband
Sock Dreams tights
H&M flats
Forever 21 cardigan

purple dress, pansy lane

Back when I bought these pink striped stockings I also bought a black version. Oh Sock Dreams, how I love you! I usually go a bit crazy each fall and pick out lots of new tights and knee socks and put in a big order.

Who else is buying/reading Mockingjay today?! I still need to pick it up later.

  2. You look adorable in those tights! Wish it was cool enough to wear them here, I'm sweating in my seersucker in this 96 degree heat. Blech.


    And yes, I'm reading Mockingjay today. I was able to download it to my nook last night at 11 CST. Yay for technology actually working the way I expect.

    It's moving right along so far!

  3. I love the tights! (and the dress, and the cardigan and the headband :P)

    I absolutely adore tights, but I find wearing them really hard because I can never find any long enough that don't have elephant waist bands :(

  6. Anais: Haha it's true! They're just so fun to buy because I make up lots of new outfits for them in my head.

    Tere: Thank you! <3 Oh it's definitely not cool enough here, but we went to a restaurant so I justified it that way. I'm sooo behind on Mockingjay, everyone else has finished already! We packed and cleaned until late yesterday evening, and then I finally picked it up and started it last night. So far I've avoided spoilers though!

    Rosie: Haha thanks! :D I don't usually have a problem finding them long enough because I'm so short, but I do have a few pairs that get all bunchy. I had to throw out my favorite gray pair for that reason and haven't been able to find a replacement! They were light gray and heathered. Sigh.

    Helen: Me too! Anything stripey like that reminds me of Beetlejuice and that's usually why I buy it, haha.

    Sil: Thank you!! Yay Sock Dreams :)
