Pull The Wool Over Your Eyes For A Week Or More


Hello there! I hope you all had lovely weekends! Unfortunately, mine was mostly spent doing work, work, and also work. It's my second to last week of classes, and this week and next weekend are when I'm going to have the most to finish up. Hopefully the time I spent working over the weekend will alleviate some of the last minute stress I will inevitably feel. I can't wait until the semester's over, and I can enjoy the holiday season and take a breather (though, admittedly, I've had much less work this semester than in the past). I did, however, also put up my Christmas tree over the weekend! I love putting up the tree (though we use a fake one) and looking at cute/embarrassing childhood photo ornaments. My mom's kept just about every ornament, since even before my sister, brother, and I were born, and so it's nice to see all those memories adorn the tree.


Today I opted for a mostly gray outfit with just a pop of pale pink since the sky's been gray and overcast all day. BUT we got our first little snow flurry of the season! It's not sticking or anything, and the flurries are one and off, but it's still exciting because I love snow! This outfit is one of those where I put the pieces together in my head and hoped once I actually put it on, that it looked as nice as it did in my head. I think it turned out pretty well. Do you guys ever plan outfits in your head before wearing them? I've done this a whole bunch of times without it working out, but I liked how this one ended up looking!

Top: Vintage
Dress: Macy's
Tights: Hue
Belt: Target
Boots: UO
Hat: Modcloth





Until Tomorrow,
Nicole

  2. I love love love this outfit! The pop of the pink is so nice against the grays. You definitely look like you belong in the Victoria era with the ruffled collar of the blouse. And same! My weekend was filled with just boring homework. :(

    And I did the same thing as you, I tried to catch up on as much work as I could so I wouldn't be AS stressed for finals! It probably won't work though, it never does ha.
