I’m so glad I decided to buy this skirt. I thought about it for a while because technically I already had a black faux leather mini skirt, and how many do you really need? In my case, it turns out I do only need one, I just need it to be this one. My other one (worn here and here) is great, but the [shorter] length and [sassier] shape made it much less versatile. This one is demure enough (or as demure as leather can be, which is exactly the level of demure I prefer) that I can wear it to work, as I did here.

Well, here it is: my New Years Eve outfit! Yeah, I know that was a few days ago, but I wanted to make sure this 2015 thing stuck before I jinxed it. Like maybe that Y2K thing got delayed for a decade and half. You can never be too careful. But I think we’re safe.

I went to a house party with about a zillion of Kristin’s theater friends. My outfit was a hit with the gays. Compliments included:

“This sweater is the most PERFECT thing happening in this room right now.”

“THIS [gestures up and down my body] …is EVERYTHING.”

A couple people were even keen enough to notice my sparkly ball ring. I tried to get people to watch it drop, but apparently it wasn’t as exciting as the real thing. Maybe I’ll try a bigger ring for 2016.
