Today's outfit is my contribution to Elaine's "Rule Breaking" style challenge. The rule I am breaking is that if one does not have proportionally long legs, one should not wear below the knee skirts with flat shoes, or flat boots. I think this is a good rule, but when it's 30 degrees and windy and I have a bit of walking to do today (including an important noodle eating endeavor with professor from philosophy), so I felt like going with practicality. I know that 30 degree is nothing compared to the midwest, but for some reason, 30 degrees in Minnesota is not bad compared to 30 degrees in NY. It has something to do with the sea, and humidity (I think). Anyway, I like the lines of this outfit, even if risk stumpifying myself. Oh and both the boots and cardigan are a dark brown (I like the descriptor "Dark Chocolate"), which isn't clear in the picture.
I strongly dislike the lighting at school, but I woke up late today so I decided to post from school. Then the A train was a disaster this morning. I glad I got here in time, but this is why my post is delayed. Just one more teaching day after this. (I am behind everyone who didn't get a slew of Jewish holidays in September). I am excited to really focus my energies soon on the Project That Will Not End.
Happy Wednesday, everyone!
