Holiday Brain

dec 3 3


I wore this the other day, when we put up and decorated our Christmas tree, so I'm thinking I subconsciously (or maybe consciously) had holiday-brain while getting dressed. It's not overtly Christmassy, but it is technically red and green, which are the most Christmassy colors. Also, I didn't notice it at first, but my high school's colors were maroon and gray when I attended, and navy and dark green when my sister attended, and my college's colors are green and white. I definitely have school on the brain right now, and it's apparently manifesting itself in my outfits. Swell!

Dress: Thrifted, Sweater: Urban Outfitters, Tights: We Love Colors, Boots: Lucky Brand, Brooch: Gift

Aaaaand, I thought you all deserved to see the graceful aftermath of this jumping shot, in which I look like a frog. I should really put together a super flattering "out-takes" post

  7. I think shades of green and red are great together, and I'm always trying to work that combo in a way that's not too obviously Christmasy. I love how the cool, sort of minty green of your dress looks with the maroon here!

  9. Well well well, it looks like Christmas really has snuck into your brain.. or closet? It works though and is especially fitting for the holidays!
    That last picture is so funny. If I didn't know better, I would have just thought you were playing leap frog. Oh gosh, jumping pictures sure do capture our finest moments. ;)
