Last Thursday this skirt I ordered from Loft came in, just in time for me to wear it to work Friday for Go Red Day. I don’t generally make a point to “celebrate” Go Red Day, but the timing was just too good. Once I had the skirt, the rest of this outfit fell together pretty quickly, and I just loved it. Funny enough, the day I wore this outfit was the same day I vented on the blog about how I’m proud of not being perfect. Not gonna lie, I felt pretty much perfect in this and I didn’t hate the feeling.

Speaking of last Friday’s post, you guys are all WAY TOO NICE to me. Seriously, you’re the best. From now on when I’m feeling down, I’m just going to tell you that someone said something mean about me and then let you pump my ego back up. I feel like I should do a quick followup to my “Not Perfect” post though, because I’m afraid I gave off the impression that “Regina” was being horrible and rude, and that’s really not the case. The context of her comment was that she LIKES my blog and was recommending it to other people. It’s just that I’m human and it’s hard to ignore the criticism even if it’s sandwiched between two compliments. So there’s no reason to beat up on Regina. She brought traffic to my blog and gave me something to write about.

OK, so back to today’s prompt, which is: how perfect is this outfit?!

I’m trying to think of something to say about this outfit but I can only come up with a random string of excited words: Yellow! Pretty shoes! Bows! Sparkly things! Basically, I liked this outfit so much that I forgot to how sentences make.

I’m also going to blame my brain fog on the large amount of unhealthy but delicious food I ate today. A Giordano’s Pizza opened this week down the road from me, so I just had some serious deep dish. Also, earlier today I was looking for something in my purse and I found the second half of a s’mores brownie I bought 5 days ago. I’m not ashamed to tell you that I took a bite just to see if it was still good. I’m also not ashamed to tell you that once I confirmed it was still good, I ate the rest of it.

Now that I think of it, I ate the first half of that brownie while wearing this outfit. There you go…I made a complete thought about this outfit. My work here is done.
