Top – Nordstrom Rack (clearance, shop similar); Jeans – Old Navy (exact).

For fun, my first picture with Zamboni. He’s just a little of out of focus. 

My outfit posts are infrequent to say the least, so it was definitely not my intention to post two outfits featuring denim and white-on-black polka dots. I kind of flipped things around this time though — whereas last time I wore my chambray shirt over my polka dot dress, this time I grabbed two of my new fall pieces, this top and a new pair of flared jeans.

This definitely isn’t the most flattering outfit, but it is comfortable. It’s the proportions that throw things off, but listen learned: when you’re between jean sizes, it’s probably wise to invest in a belt. Also, can we talk how this shirt was originally priced at $58?! So not worth it — I’m glad I snagged at eight bucks, but it’s a thin cotton material (if you look closely it’s not even lined near the collar) and the black is already fading. I’ll wear it to pieces this fall though, I’m sure.

P.S. Next time, I promise to wear some color.

Note: I’d be remiss to not mention that today is the 12th anniversary of 9/11. You can read some of my earlier reflections of that day here.
