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: 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.

{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 5, 2012} Day 05: Favorite outfit Maybe not all-time favorite, but it’s up there for what I wear to work anyway…wearing this on Thursday (Dec 6.) to work for a long day and important meeting. There will likely be a photo of this look in action to come later.

{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).

LL Bean pinned my photo!

In awesome news from last night, I was doing my before bed Pinterest check and scrolling down my feed (or whatever the pinterest equivalent of tumblr’s dashboard is) and saw my photo…and I was like “wait, that’s me.” LL Bean posted one of my What I Wore Today photos featuring my new Bean Boots onto their Bean Boots board.

So that was extremely awesome, slightly odd to come across that, but flattering. I love it. And I love their Bean Boots board (which I admittedly perused at length before deciding which ones to buy).

Sidenote: I think that’s why I don’t post a lot of pictures of my face and such on here - I think I would be extremely weirded out if I scrolled down my dash and saw some random person posting a photo of me. But, I was super flattered that they did that, and it was a good kind of weird feeling. They are welcome to pin photos of me whenever they want. And I would also be okay with some sort of discount if they felt so inclined :P

{What I Wore Today: Saturday, November 10, 2012} Worn to the library to pick up some movies, a grad school networking workshop, and then drove to the burbs to go to Red Lobster with my parents and to get my cat back :) Gray Top: American Apparel Yellow Tank: Target Leggings: Target (breaking my own rule about leggings as pants, but I double them up with running tights under so they aren’t see through at all haha) Boots; LL Bean Bag: Target Scarf: H&M (4 years old/no longer available) Attempted a top knot for the first time.
