katerinabeth: {What I Wore: Thursday, March 21, 2013} Awhile back I saw this skull scarf on H&M’s website, made a polyvore around it, and have since been looking for the scarf at several H&M’s to no avail. On my lunch break on Wednesday I went back to the huge H&M on Michigan Avenue and couldn’t find the scarf. Right when I was about to give up and leave I saw two mannequins high on a shelf wearing one. They were sold out but they took one off the display for me. Score. And through this picture I realized just how wrinkly my pants are. I either need to not keep them in a drawer, or purchase an iron. Pants (Victoria’s Secret) | Cardigan (Old Navy - similar) | Scarf (H&M) | Boots (LL Bean) cuz I really like my scarf.

katerinabeth: {What I Wore: Monday, March 11, 2013 Part II} It felt like a chilly spring morning, so I finally got to bring out my favorite seasonal transition coat (from Nordstrom, many years ago). See part I of the look here.

katerinabeth: {What I Wore: Monday, March 11, 2013, Part I} I don’t usually dress up to go to work on Mondays (because who likes Mondays?), especially the Monday after Daylight Savings Time starts and I can barely get myself out of bed. But, yesterday evening I had to go straight from work to a poster session to present my master’s thesis…except not really, because I don’t have any data yet, but it’s a poster based on the lit review and the methods I’m employing for my research. But anyway, the temperature was in the mid-40’s, so I wanted to wear a dress since I haven’t been able to all season. The silver things in the bottom right pic are on the outside of my boots…they aren’t visible in the main pic and I think they’re fun so I took a close up. Everything is really old, so no click-thru shopping links today: Dress (Target) | Cardigan (Old Navy) | Belt (F21, I think) | Boots (Payless). Sometimes I’ll still reblog myself when I particularly like what I was wearing one day haha.

katerinabeth: {What I Wore: Tuesday, January 29, 2013} It feels like spring in Chicago today (60 degrees!). Worn to work, and maybe the grocery store if I decide to go. Most of this stuff is super old, but I still like it. (My hair is a little screwy. Oops. Top knots are not my forte. You would think that with all my years of ballet I would have the bun nailed by now.) Striped top (Old Navy) | Blazer (Forever 21) | Pants (Victoria’s Secret, color no longer available) | Shoes (Ross) | Crochet headband and bracelet (made by me last week). Reblogging myself cuz I liked my outfit today :)

katerinabeth: {What I Wore: Friday, January 11, 2013} It was very drizzly all day (but 55 degrees!), so I wanted to add some yellow to brighten it up a bit. Also, my cat is photobombing the boot photo. Worn to work and the grocery store. Button-up (Forever 21 - old) | Cardigan (Old Navy - similar) | Denim (Joe’s Jeans - similar) | Belt (Forever 21 - old) | Rainboots (Target - old) So I know I said I wasn’t going to post anything personal over here anymore now that I created my personal blog, but I really liked my outfit today so whatever. haha.

{December 23, 2012} Day 23: Gratitude I’m extremely grateful for my lovely tiny studio apartment, with a lovely tiny tree, that I share with my new and extremely loving kitty. I’m also grateful to have a few days off of work (and for having a job I love) so I can get some much needed R&R back at my parents’ house over the holidays, which is why I’m posting a photo I took earlier this month for today’s theme (I took this when my parents wanted photos to share with relatives - this is my crappy attempt at a Christmas card).

{What I Wore Today: December 18, 2012} New chambray shirt (Old Navy) My trusty brown and navy plaid pants from Gap (no longer available) Cheap F21 silver pearl necklace Attempted curling my very fine hair, which looked awesome for about 3 minutes until I tried taking a photo. Then it fell out.  Worn to work, and then hopefully out to drinks or something afterward. Still waiting for people to text me back :)

{December 11, 2012} Day 11: Dance Technically cheating because this is from yesterday. So sue me. I decided it’d be a good idea to drink 2 glasses of wine and have my own ballet class in my apartment (simultaneously).

Practicing (and failing) my self-photo skills. My parents wanted a photo of me and the cat in front of my apartment tree to send to family, but I wanted to practice without my cat since she won’t sit still for very long and the self-timer feature wasn’t cooperating. Happy Holidays!

{What I Wore Today: Monday, December 3, 2012} I’m not doing this because I thought my outfit today was particularly cute, because it isn’t my favorite outfit ever. Instead, it’s because this will never happen again: It’s December 3rd, and it was 70 degrees in Chicago. This is all I wore today while outside….and I was sweating when I walked from the bus to work. Please note the lack of socks.

{What I Wore Today: Friday, November 30, 2012 - Brown and Black Edition} Last night I came home from work when my after-work plans got cancelled and realized I hadn’t done one of these in awhile, so I decided to take a snapshot before promptly changing into sweats. Faux-leather jacket: Target (for real I love this thing) Brown scarf: H&M (no longer available. It’s old). Plaid shirt: Target Denim: Joe’s Jeans Brown legwarmers: Discount Dance Supply Boots: Old Navy Gloves: Target (no longer available - very old, and the button fell off which is why a flap is hanging down).

{November 21, 2012} Day 21: What I Wore Short work day and a surprisingly quick drive to the burbs for Thanksgiving (it only took 10 minutes longer than normal despite driving on very busy roads). Old Navy puffer vest, old but super comfy Target zip up hoodie (although I hate how it bunches up when I’m sitting and poofs out haha), and my ON tan boots and Joe’s skinny jeans. DISCLAIMER: this was taken while stopped for a train….I don’t text and drive (or take photos and drive).
{November 19, 2012} Day 19: something awesome rocking my ninja knee highs under my boring black pants at work (I rolled them up for the purposes of this photo), because what is life without whimsy?
