Love letter to Janeane

When I was a tween/teen in the 1990s, I loved Janeane Garofalo. She might be my perfect woman.

That attitude. The left politics. The biting humor. The hair. The glasses. The tats. And the clothes that were street and uber stylish.
I believe that I have my own awesomeness today, but my idolization of JG still probably influences me. I heard somewhere (probably Youlookfab) that the 1990s are back. Score. Now that I have access to thrift stores, public transit, and a somewhat flexible schedule, the JG look will be mine.
Today is 66 degrees, which is close to record warm in NYC. I have like a million things I'd like to get done, but I will take it easy. Mostly, I need to get on the Thank You cards.

I am this happy to be able to wear just one layer outside


I like how I can this wrap dress can be both kind of grunge 1990s, but also I could wear a pair of black sandals/flats for when I visit my parents and wear it to places like church, or to a dinner/lunch meeting at work. Thrifted Ann Taylor win! ($10 at Goodwill)

My green tights are a day late. They match the itsy bitsy green and pink flowers on the dress. Me in pink flowers (I can't believe it).
