Misschedule


Misschedule, originally uploaded by Cohabitating_Closet.

I thought today was part of a recruitment night at my school for a certain program. But I was wrong. I wasted a perfectly decent "authority" outfit on a rainy day. Massive professor misschedule. At least I am here for another reason: make up exams and a student meeting. Still, I would have preferred something more casual and fun. Here I am, still queen of the neutrals.
Readers, if you met me in this outfit, would you think, "I could entrust my intelligent child's higher education in her hands," or think, "What kind of sloppy lady wears a gigantic oatmeal colored cardigan, T shirt, and an skirt that is too big?" I am hoping for the former. I could have gone with the "interview suit" but I hate that Banana Republic monstrosity.

This outfit is mostly provided by my mother, who is always trying to get me dress like a nice young lady. I even wore these little bow pumps to my PhD graduation (a mistake. I kept sinking into the mud).

Cardigan: Rachel Rachel Roy (mom present), Macy's
Tshirt (tunic style): Dillards (from mom, again)
Skirt: H&M
Patterned tights: Uniqlo
Shoes: Enzo Angiolini (thrifted)
