What I'm Wearing
Necklace: F21 | Earrings: ALDO | Bracelets: Assorted | Watch: Fossil (gift) | Belt: Talbots | Blazer: thrifted
Top: H&M | Skirt: ebay | Shorts: NY&C | Chunky Heel Sandals: Macy's | Purse: bebe

I had a managers' meeting at work on this day, but I was off as soon as it was over. I wanted to uphold the company's dress code while I was there, but still have something easy, cute, and COOL to wear because the sun was beating down on me like I stole something from it! So, this was my solution.

I wore these shorts underneath my maxi skirt and succeeded in creating two independent looks. One for the daytime and one for later. These shorts were a birthday gift to myself and I had purchased them to go with the blazer I wore with this outfit. I'm absolutely in love with them and I can't wait until I can wear the suit. (Special occasion needed!)

What I'm Wearing
Necklace & Belt: Wet Seal
Earrings & Double Cuffs: diva.net.au
Sleeveless Cut-Out Back Blosue: H&M
Pleated Skirt: F21 (thrifted)
Colorblocked Bag: Tobi
White & Gold Sandals: Dolce Vita

It's more than just the double cuffs. I find that I try to bite off more than I can chew very often. With school, blogging, and many other things. Something in my mind tells me I can do it all, because I'm no ordinary woman. And only an ordinary woman would be unable to do more than her limit allows her. I want to exceed my limits... greatly. But it will not be easy. I will continue to be hard-working, determined, and, not to mention, fabulous all at the same time. I may not have actual super powers, but I will be great. (And you can, and should be, too!)

What I'm Wearing
Zebra Printed Scarf: thrifted | Earrings: ALDO | Necklace: diva.net.au (shop! Just $4!)
Rings: Assorted | Bracelet & Bangle: F21 & Shoedazzle
Coral Knit: F21 ($10)
Watch: Fossil (gift)
High Waisted Shorts: H&M (thrifted $6)
Sandals: Payless ($13)
Crossbody Bag: Latico Leather Sling/Crossbody (thrifted gift)

I'm not used to carrying a bag that doesn't have my entire life in it. I'm always on the move and not having a car automatically puts me in the position of being a bag lady just about everywhere I go. Luckily, my sister agreed (after some serious bribing) to drive me to where I needed to be and pick me up afterwards. So I didn't need anything but me, myself, I, and my camera. (So, I actually had one extra bag, but shh. That's not the point.) This is a serious thing. My friend refer to me as bag lady. I don't know if I would make Erykah Badu proud because I am the physical emulation of her amazing song or ashamed...because I am the physical emulation of her amazing song.

P.S. I went to a Fish Fry for the first time in my life. It was delicious, yes it was!

**Starting this Monday, I will be working at my beloved summer camp as well as my normal job, so you may see a little less of me. However, to prepare for that, I've taken a few outfit photos in advanced, so it'll seem (almost) like I never left!**

What I'm Wearing
Mint Chunky Scarf: borrowed | Earrings: ALDO
Black Coat: H&M ($12)
Coral Blazer: thrifted ($4.50)
Zigzag Striped Top: River Island ($11)
Black Button Up Skirt: H&M ($7)
Black Tights: Express (gift)
Black Wedges: Charlotte Russe ($11)

JUST KIDDING! It is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT and almost impossible to pretend to NOT be cold when it's freezing.. I promise you, when I figure it out, I will share the wealth free of charge! Buuuut, for now, I do breathing exercises to help me keep calm in the cold... And I think of supermodels who take pictures in extreme weather conditions. Those ladies are pin thin and their pictures turn out heavenly. So, I try to channel their energy. Of course, it doesn't always work, but it's certainly worth the try!

I layer like it's no one's business, though. With this outfit, I had on double tights (a sweater pair and a very thick pair), and four layers on top (my coat, my blazer, my blouse, and a tank top underneath it). And even with all those extra layers of skin, I could still feel my blood freezing and my breath transforming from vapor to icicles. Albany is cold.

I'm officially discouraged from wearing skirts this season...at least until the weather goes above 30 degrees again (that's Fahrenheit!)

But, if any of you figure out how to pretend you're not freezing in 20 degree weather before I do, please, enlighten me!
