dark and stormy...

Dark and stormy...
just isn't describing the weather!?

My husband decided I needed to get out and see a movie…

maybe cheer me up a bit.

I was definitely in a dark mood

and it reflected in my choice of outfit for the evening...
dark clothes...black accessories...
I usually prefer to add bling and sparkle to such dark pieces.

 I guess this could’ve been a bit of a strong, sexy look…

which is why I hesitated on keeping the sweater after I purchased it…
I'm not strong nor sexy?!

But it felt soft, comfy, and somber that night...
I hope to incorporate it into my wardrobe in a lighter, softer way though?!
Thoughts? Suggestions? (the black ribbon belt is attached)

We saw “The Tourist” and my disposition improved…

it was Johnny and Angelina!?!

Side note:
These were taken a week or so ago...hence the lack of snow?!

Just as I obsessed over being able to wear a tutu in real life…

I have been fixated on wearing shorts with boots.

Inspired by Sloane Peterson, from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off...

I purchased these shorts several months ago anxiously anticipating

the moment that I could wear them.

As the weather was about turn bleak later in the week…

I saw my opportunity and donned them for a trip to

town to work on our Halloween costumes.
