I'm starting to get the hang of the whole not-wearing-tights-with-my-shorts thing. I still feel really self conscious about showing so much of my legs to the world, but I know that I would look super ridiculous, if I opted to wear tights at such a hot time of the year. Sacrifices must be made. I understand. Heh.

Yes, it was another scorcher. So, you get another super simple outfit. >_< To make it less boring, I combined two bright pastels. I think lemon and lime are quite summery. *^_^* I thrifted the faded yellow submarine tee, but I can't seem to remember where I bought it. I've had it for ages. I snagged the cute green shorts at a steep discount through an annual sale on-line. This is my second time wearing them, since I bought them, last year. The light green is a hard color for me to work with, for some reason. I will try to wear them more often, though. I love the box pleats and the fact that it sort of looks like a skirt. :D

These are my new wingtip oxfords! They're exactly the color I was hoping for. :DDD There was a site wide sale on Amazon, recently, and my partner had planned to buy a bunch of stuff. He asked me if there was anything I wanted and I was like...man. You know, I want all the things. Haha. I had these brown oxfords in my wishlist for a really long time, so he got them for me. What a sweetheart. <3

Obviously, I can't let this go. Yes, it was a gift, but he should get something, too. So, I bought an early birthday present, last week. I'll have to wait a whole month to give it to him, but I think he'll love it. ^_^

Oh and speaking of repaying kindness, I'm putting something special together for you guys, too! You'll find out what it is in the coming weeks. :P <3 Thanks for reading and I hope you like the outfit!

I've been asked, on more than one occasion, if I ever have an "off day." I try to reassure people that I do have off days. I phone it in pretty hard during the week. Haha. I'm not what you might call, "naturally gifted," when it comes to dressing myself. I have a tendency to think very carefully about it to the point of completely overthinking it. This unnecessary mental strain makes it impossible for me to be cleverly stylish every single day of the week. I have enough brain juice for the weekends and that's about it.

Picture

I guess this is an example of a "throw away" outfit. I thought really hard about whether to post this, because it bored me to my core. I literally threw this stuff on, before getting on my bike and heading to an improv joint for pizza, beer and laughs. Hehe. This is the kind of outfit I would put into the "needs to be re-worked" pile. In that case, you wouldn't ever see it. So, this is a rare exception. o_O O_o


Picture

I added the glasses patterned socks for just a little bit of flair. If I had added layers to the outfit, it might have been more interesting, but it would have run the risk of looking over-worked and I would have been hot like woah. >_<  By adding just the socks, I satisfied my need for complexity while maintaining the integrity of the outfit as a whole. They made the outfit less boring, but still kept it low-key. ^_^

Yep. Sorry, if this style has you asleep and drooling all over your keyboards. Just keepin' it real. :D
