Nautical Knit

The other day, as I was looking through my clothes, I found this gray skirt that I've never worn!! That needed correction, so I came up with this!

 

Isn't it pretty?! I love the texture! I decided to go with a red-and-blue theme, choosing my bluw striped ruffle button-down, red faux-croc belt, red pashmina scarf, and navy faux-leather jacket.

 

I love the way this skirt falls. It has so much movement! Perfect for twirling :D

 

It took me a long time to decide what footwear would be best with this outfit. The roads and sidewalks weren't very slippery, so I chose my pointy pirate boots! The holes for the laces in the back matched the hardware on the belt too ;)

I also wore my black slouchy toque! It's quickly become my favourite winter hat. It adss just the right amount of "casual" to any outfit!

So, I'm in the process of choosing an outfit to wear to my first tutorial tomorrow -- I'm woking as a TA (teacher's assistant) this semester, and part of my duties include leading an optional tutorial! I think I know what I'm going to wear, I may post it ahead of my other looks tomorrow, I'm quite excited about it :)

Speaking of TA'ing, holy moly do I ever have a ton of marking to do!! I was aiming to have the papers back tomorrow, but it's looking like Wednesday, hahaha. I'm not complaining though, I love marking them! I'm glad I'm enjoying this so much, I want to be a professor some day, and this is excellent reassurance that I'll love that kind of work :D

All right, I'm off to crack into my readings and markings an prepping!

Happy dressing!
