My Head is Fuzzy

I put this on this morning and Chad laughed at my because he thought I would freeze my but off. “Shorts when its been raining none stop!? Have fun with that!” Oh, I did have fun, thank you!

I definitely felt like a cowgirl today. I love this outfit even if people don’t understand it! Ha, it’s not that hard to understand.

That’s my little herb garden in the corner. It has been suffocated with rain lately and I really hope it doesn’t die. I can’t wait for my big herb pot to be planted! It’s going to be one tasty Summer!

So, I’ve got my over sized Boyfriend shirt layered over a tank top (both purchased at Plum), tucked into my denim shorts (purchased at Heritage 1981), which are worn over my black spotted tights (purchased at Forever 21), tucked into my faux fryes. Did you catch all of that?

The belt is Chads of course, and the necklace he bought me while on a trip to Korea.

Tucking blouses into shorts. It’s genius I tell you.

Today’s pictures actually turned out well, and that makes me happy :)

This post is a good example of how my head is fuzzy.

Day 103

Sick Day

The Day of Death

Holy Smokes, was I sick today. My second dose of thyroid shots, which have the side effect of nausea, took full side effect on me. It didn’t hit me right away, but it came on fast and furious after lunch. Its been a while since Ive been that sick, stomach wise.

I should have taken a picture this morning, because once the nausea came on, I wasn’t able to stand for 5 minutes together. Its too bad too, cause I really liked todays outfit.

Tights & Shorts

So we have all seen this trend at some point in our lives. I’ve seen quite a few people lately pulling off the whole ‘Tights & Shorts’ phenomenon, and every time I see it I get inspired and want to try it, but it’s a matter of pairing the right shorts, with the right tights, with the right shoes, and there is something very daunting about that.

Finally I got my butt in gear and decided to just try it out!

I bought these great shorts last September in LA from a store called Heritage 1981, which is owned by the same company as Forever 21. I’ve often found it hard buying shorts because a lot of them never fit me properly and I always have trouble finding the right length for my proportions. I finally found these beauties and fell in love.

I paired the shorts with some basic black tights I bought at Plum and my Faux Fryes.

On top I wore a grey t-shirt from Espirt and a purple ribbed waist cardigan from Kersh, paired with a fun multi coloured scarf from Le Chateau.

I thought it turned out pretty good. I want to buy some printed tights and try that next time as well.

I quite like the idea of tights and shorts now that I’ve tried it out. I think paired with the right top and shoes it can be a fun and stylish use of shorts in the winter months!
