We All Want Something Beautiful


School is wearing me out, man. You would think I was an elderly insomniac by how incredibly tired I am since starting classes. Today kind of wore on my nerves, since I had my first poetry class of the year and a meeting with my philosophy teacher to discuss my work. Both went fine, but it's how nervous I got before and how nervous I continue to be that's making me all crazy crazy. I have to be at school from 9 AM to 9 PM tomorrow, which is silly and lame, but at least I only have one half hour meeting on Friday. Bright side!

So, I'm going to keep this post short since I just want to eat and lay down under a few blankets while SVU episodes and Counting Crows music play because it's just that kind of night. But, I did really like how these photos turned out. I think it's mainly because I like snow so much, and I got to take these pictures as it was snowing, but before it had been tainted by shovels and car gunk.

Sweater: Forever 21
Dress: Modcloth
Tights: Hue
Hat: H&M





Until Tomorrow,
Nicole

    I remember when I worked shifts during school, finishing one night at 9:00pm then starting at 7:00am when I had afternoon classes. It can be murder.

    Holy cow, that is a lot of school! I'm sorry it's been so rough on you. I'm sure things will get better. :)

    The snow falling in your pictures look so pretty, probably the best photo accessory ever. haha
    This outfit is so wonderful, I love all of these colors paired together.
    I really like the pattern on that dress/skirt!

    Beautiful picture; I love the idea of putting the sweater on top of the dress to warm it up and make it look like separates. :D

    These pictures are so so pretty! You look so good in all the snow. I love the color of your tights too! Hope you have a good day at school tomorrow (well as good of a day as you can have when you are at school all day and night) it will all pay off someday though. You are lovely!! xo

    Aw, I know how you feel. Though I am not in school, I work at a school and the days are incredibly long and filled with tons of work. Seriously, I feel your frustration and wish you lots of good rest:)

    Your outfit again is seriously gorgeous. You are truly the best at mixing different colors together. The rust tights look awesome with the teal hat and navy skirt...completely unexpected but quite perfect:)

    Is that an owl print dress?!? How cute! (It's still cute if it turns out to be some other random pattern that I can't make out). I hear you on being tired. I'm taking so many classes and I'm just shattered, but really frustrated with myself that I don't seem able to accomplish anything outside of school--like the really necessary reading I should be doing right now. Pfff. Rest up well on Friday!

    Oh Nicole! I can SO relate to you on being exhausted, though my schedule isn't as extreme. I'm exhausted even typing this.
