Blizzard Chic

Blizzard Chic




There's a blizzard in the forecast. Oh frabjous day. Also I have my first class of the semester tonight. Callooh callay. As much as I'd like to make myself look super professional for that, weather wins out, so I'll bundle up in a big sweater with a thick scarf instead.

Time to Present

Time to Present



It's time for my final presentation in one of my classes. Augh! Where did the semester go?

I love to wear a cute basic dress with tights and a jacket whenever I'm doing something professional. I think it looks polished while still being cute and fashionable. The collar on this dress is a nice-looking feature, and my trusty buffalo-plaid backpack manages to look nice while still being functional. It's been a great piece all semester, big enough to get my laptop and a few books inside without being clunky or unwieldy.

Outfit Post: Gray and Black




This is sort of a disjointed OOTD, because I wasn't able to get a full-body shot. Nevertheless, I snapped a few highlights.

I adore my Zenni glasses, first of all. The beige color means they don't overpower my face, but they still have a cute shape and a hint of sparkle. The short necklace is raw opal, which in my completely unbiased opinion is the best birthstone ever. The long one I bought from an artist setting jewelry near the Fort Greene Park farmers' market earlier this fall. I wish I still had her card, because she had some beautiful stuff. What was great was that many of her necklaces -- including the one I have on -- are on non-leather cords. Those ankle boots I've had for a year or two now. They came from DSW. And as usual I have on my trusty teggings.

Let's talk makeup. I'm massively into purple lipstick. This one is a Revlon matte balm. The mascara I've got on here was sent to me for free from Influenster. It's Rimmel Scandal Eyes. I like it, but I don't know that I'd buy it for myself. The color is nice and the coverage is good, but the curve of the want is a bit unwieldy and too big for my taste. I prefer a smaller wand so I can get in tight to my eyes.
