I picked up a couple things at Ann Taylor recently to beef up my professional wardrobe…you know, for that profession that I’ll hopefully have soon. In the meantime, there’s no reason I can’t break in the blazer at school. And maybe I’ll throw in a statement necklace and some combat boots so everyone will think I’m one of those girls who can mix random things together and look awesome. Is it working?

Oh, and don’t forget! I’ll be starting my leg of the Black Out challenge tomorrow! I hope some of you will join in. You don’t have to be a blogger to join, and you’ll be entered in a giveaway for an adorable fox necklace. Nicole and I will share a list of all participants each week (including your link if you’re a blogger). If you think it sounds impossible to stop wearing black for a week, check out Nicole’s pointers (and very loose rules!) here.

Despite what the name of the store suggests, you cannot be 21 forever. I don’t go in there very often, because I find that the older I get, the more sensitive I become to cheap crap. That said, Forever 21 isn’t totally worthless, even to me. It’s the easiest place for me to find cozy sweaters. See, I’m mildly allergic to wool – I don’t break out in hives or anything, but if I wear it for more than 5 minutes I’ll start scratching myself like a meth addict.

As much as I love shopping for fall and winter clothes at stores like J. Crew, it’s always such a letdown when I see a beautiful pile of perfectly folded sweaters in a rainbow of colors, I reach out to pick one up, and I recoil in horror. WHY YOU GOTTA BE SO FANCY WITH YOUR MERINO AND CASHMERE?!

You know where you don’t find merino and cashmere? Forever 21. That place is a haven of synthetic fabrics year-round. Aaaahhh, acrylic. How my sensitive skin loves you.
