In Which I Make A Mockery of the Menswear Trend

IMG_6810edit


Hello there! This is just going to be a quick little post, because I really should be working on my poetry manuscript right now. My bloggy presence this week is going to be pretty much sparse and spotty (and alliterative?) because this is my last week of school. Eep! I'm actually not as excited as I hoped I would be. This is the first summer where I'm not longing for lazy days and relaxation. I have an internship, thank goodness, but I'm also hoping to find a job for the summer as well. Part of me wishes school kept going for the summer because I have this really strong urge to keep doing things and keep learning things. Strange, right? haha

Anyway, I wore this outfit last Friday. This glorious tuxedo sweater used to be my dad's when he was young and clearly hip. I've never worn it out because, frankly, it's so silly, but I got this strong urge to wear it the other day, so wear it I did. I realized quickly that with the tuxedo sweater and hat I was sort of doing a ridiculous take on menswear, but I think I'm okay with that.

Plaid shirt: Delia's
Tuxedo sweater: Dad's
Jeans: Urban Outfitters
Hat: Modcloth
