Express Yourself

It's all in the details, y'all.  

After living with merebear for 3 years (aka the majority of my college experience) she finally rubbed off on me... well a little. I'm still not fond of chai tea and I'll never be okay using hairspray, but I like to think we picked up each other's good habits and made each other better. Case and point: I am now a clothes and accessories freak, and I place sole blame on her.

If I had a dollar for every time she'd lay out my outfit selections and as I groveled pleading for more comfortable options she'd say very matter-of-factly, "Beauty is pain, Anna. Put on one of these choices," I'd be a wealthy woman. 


Alas... I'm far from the monetary wealth I aspire to, but that doesn't mean my closet has to suffer, does it?

Today's fall-y chic outfit was inspired by the chilly weather as I walked outside for my run this morning.  Mind you, it was 6:30 a.m., and it's since warmed up quite a bit, but I refuse to let that deter me. Autumn is a mere 5 days away, and I'm beyond ready.

Bring on the colored denim, woven scarves, and pumpikn spice candles, this November baby is ready for the best season of the year.
