30 for 30: Day 24 (12/10/10)

Do you feel deflated or energized by the end of the week? I am normally pretty energized because I know the weekend has finally arrived (and I am lucky enough to not work weekends) but this week I felt nothing but deflated. It has been a very long work week, to say the least. All I felt like wearing was something soft and cuddly. Here you have it.


Black/White Stripe Shirt: Mossimo, Thrifted
Dark Skinny Heans: Xhilaration, Target
Black Heeled Oxfords: Joan and David Too, Thrifted, $5.20
Zebra Pashmina: Affordable Scarves, FREE (won in giveaway)
Glasses: SEE Eyewear
OK, so this doesn't look like the most soft or cuddly outfit ever but I promise you it was. These jeans are soft and stretchy. The button up is as light as air. The pashmina? It's my favorite scarf. I ordered it because I loved the design and ended up loving it when it got here for more than just that reason. It is so, so soft and drapes so well. I love it.


I've accomplished a lot today: A full day's work, a trip to the thrift store (just to find a white elephant gift!), a bit of down time and then a nice dinner with my mom. We also stopped to pick my 13 year old brother up from his first formal dance of the year. My mom had to get him new dress pants for the dance because he outgrew his last pair. When they were shopping for the pants, he asked her if he could get a vest and she, of course, said yes. (He's the absolute baby of the family and a total mama's boy so, yeah, he has my mom wrapped around his finger.) He looked adorable when we picked him up - black dress pants, black vest, vibrant blue dress shirt, funky tie and spiked hair. I love it.


For now I will bid you adieu... I'm busy preparing a pie (trying a new recipe) for a family Christmas party I'm going to tomorrow. Did I mention I've never made a pie before? Eek! Wish me luck!
