Day of the Vest.

Well, everyone, I think I like vests now. There, I said it. Waking up this morning to snow everywhere made today the perfect day for a warm down vest, indoors and out! Taking the J. Crew catalog as inspiration, I wore my vest over my usual style of outfit...that being a belted cardigan! To add to the Kentucky Equestrian feel I was going for, I added tall riding boots, and one of my favorite accessories, my official UK Plaid scarf.

My coworkers did not mock me for the vest, as I originally thought they would, though one did tell me that when he was in France a year ago, all the French girls were wearing them. Being obsessed with France, I'll take that as a compliment! It's funny though, thinking about how in America we usually get these trends about a year later!

*And I'm not really that pale...these pictures are from my phone, I apologize for the poor quality, but my camera cord is missing! I should really work on finding that when I'm not buried under a mountain of applications!

Wardrobe aside, today was a very long and difficult day, so that's about it...now time to read Jane Eyre for a book group I'm doing for work!



I'm planning on drinking some English Breakfast tea, staying warm and cozy inside, reading about someone whose life is way worse than mine, and trying not to think about having to venture out into the snow tomorrow morning!
