Memory Is A Fickle Siren Song


Hello! I'll be keeping today's post short and sweet since I'm going out to dinner soon, and then to a Christmas show at my mom's school (also my grammar school). I go to the Christmas show pretty much every year, and it's pretty cute because all of the little kids sing Christmas carols and wear matching outfits, which is kind of wonderful. When I first put this outfit on (and wore it around to school) I had a grey sweater over it for extra warmth. But for some reason, possibly because the dress is velvet, the sweater kept bunching in the most uncomfortable way. So, for pictures I went quite basic, with just the dress, some polka dot tights, and some over the knee socks. It didn't end up exactly the way I wanted, but I still like the outfit. I may try another sweater out for when I head out again, though! Also, I blame the cold for my awkward poses/hands (awkward hands?) in these photos.

Dress: Forever 21
Tights: Hue
Moccasins: Minnetonka
Over the knees: DIY




Until tomorrow,
Nicole

  4. You are just a doll!
    And it seems that you and I dressed very similarly today-- right down to the tights, shoes, etc! Only difference is mine is a kiddies' thrift dress and yours is a hardcore F21 one! Switch? Ha.

    Love,
    Amber. :)
