Wowzers. What a week it has been. I forgot what an addiction to caffeine I form during the school year. It is 10:30 in the morning and I already have had two cups of coffee, and am currently sipping on Chai tea. No motivation. None. I have class in an hour and I just don't even want to attend. I am currently freezing, and I feel as if every time I write a post I complain now. SORRY!
Just yawned. Someone laughed at how huge my yawn was. You want to know something? When Pat and I first started dating I wouldn't let him see me yawn. Nope. I was embarrassed of it. I still am, but now I just don't care. However, I still have this tendency to hold it in until I can't even stand it anymore; letting out the largest yawn you have ever seen. My dad always says that he's surprised I haven't swallowed any bugs because of them... Thanks? Glad I haven't.
As you can see I have a ton of ADHD going on this morning. I really am half alive. So, I made a quick Polyvore showing you what I am wearing today. It is chilly here today. Boo. I still am on the internal clockwork of the South where it shouldn't be this cold until late October (and this is as cold as it gets). I really don't even want to think about snow or freezing temperatures. Yet here I am, already wearing jeans and layers to class...
Boys' Secret Wash shirt in jenson gingham

First on the list you will see a wool blazer. Mine is technically tweed but looks identical to this J.Crew one. Please don't be ashamed of me when you see that next on the list are Jeggings...from Abercrombie. I have the hardest time finding jeans that fit my waste and don't sag too much in the butt. I mean I want to look like I have a little bit of a booty, but I am not the type of person to be caught in anything skin tight. I get made fun of for wearing "mom clothes".
Whatever. I don't care, because I'd rather be a little more conservative than I need to be than show all of my goods to the whole college population. I always have been that way. So back to the Jeggings. They are ridiculously comfy, stretchy, and are form fitting but not in the gross, "muffin top" way. I love the dark wash of them. I think it's a little more classic than traditional jeans. Plus I have always been taught that darker jeans are more slimming.
I pair my Jeggings with the prize of my shoe collection; Tory Burch Boots. They make me happy. Yep, just looked at them. They are just the best, and so comfy! I love how classic they are, and the fact I can pair them with so many different outfits.
Next on the list, my large Longchamp bag. I usually just carry it and my binder to classes on these days since I only have a small book for one of my classes. The bag is big enough to throw the book, flashcards, my Lilly P. binder and whatever else in it. I am obsessed with Longchamp bags. Everytime I see someone on campus with one, I secretly give them a thumbs up in my head. Then I think I'd probably be friends with them if I knew them...probably not though, because if they knew I was giving them "mind thumbs ups" they'd probably think I was the biggest weirdo. Which I am.
Michael Kors is one of my favorite designers. The next item on the list is a crystal watch he designed. I always have to have a watch on, it may be my only jewelry of the day, but I go crazy if I don't know what time it is. Some of the classrooms at my college have clocks, but most do not. So it's nice to have a watch so I can glance at the time and count down the minutes until I am free. Yet wearing a watch has also helped me stay timely throughout my college career. I highly recommend you wear one!
Finally, Gingham is making a huge comeback this season. Not sure how I feel when I see people misusing Gingham because it is supposed to be paired with a traditional wardrobe. To each his own...I guess. It took me a long time to find a Gingham shirt that I absolutely had to buy. Lands End Canvas and J. Crew were the only two stores I found the blue Gingham I was in search of...and oh, I definitely purchased a men's shirt from J. Crew. It was cheaper, and I liked the blue better than the women's shirt. Don't judge!
So there you have it, my in depth post on what I am wearing. Sure you are thrilled you read through this whole post of randomness! Hope you all are staying warm and dry! Happy Thursday...last night of studying before the weekend (where I will be heading to Colombia, SC to watch Navy take on the Gamecocks...so excited to be down South for a football game again)!
