This dress would look so much better with a belt. I think I have a red one that would work. I "slept in" this morning and got dressed in a hurry again so I nixed accessories. These boots are beautiful but murdered me. I'm sticking to my rule of little to no heels at work. Ouchie.

A hum-drum outfit for a hum-drum day. I thought I'd experiment with black and brown together as it's something I'd had the mindset just didn't go together. Wrong. I rather like it now.

It's painfully mainstream tattoo garbage but I had to have it. It's so goofy I love it.

It was "Dressy Jeans" day at school...so i took it literally and wore both. The secretaries got a kick out of it.

I overslept by an hour this morning. Stupid alarm. >.< Sooo...I grabbed whatever was handy that I hadn't already worn this week (save the trousers). I love this shirt; it has little metallic threads runnign through the fabric and cute little puff sleeves with sparkly buttons. Unfortunately I have to cover some of my tattoos so the cardigan is a necessity. It's the same as the teal one I wore earlier this week. A little shapeless but it's got some nice details.

Cardigan: Mossimo
Shirt and trousers: Lane Bryant

I finally got my hair cut today, hence the extra poofiness.
I've had this dress since January and only worn it twice. Not sure why...it's super comfy and fits relatively well. *shrugs* I'll be keeping it in a higher rotation since I got so many compliments on it at work. ^_^

I got approval to wear my denim trousers to work! Woo-hoo! My school has a no-jeans policy for staff/teachers but I was relieved to find out that these are okay to wear. So comfy and great for crawling around under tables after wires and cables.
This blouse had an issue when I bought it but I quickly remedied it with a brooch. The self-ties do not like to stay in place in the slide without the brooch pinning them together. It's a nice little decorative touch that is functional too.

Simple enough. Shaker knit sweater and a pencil skirt. The tights and scarf keep it from being too boring, I think.

Sweater- Cato
Skirt- Lane Bryant (clearance summer 09)
Scarf- Wal-Mart ( I think)
Tights- Gift (my Mum found them on clearance a few years ago and bought me 3 pairs)
MJs- Doc Martens

Today was a good day at school. I got a lot accomplished but uncovered more things that will have to be dealt with. I survived lunch duty and dismissal!
