On Friday it was almost 70 degrees, which sounds pretty warm, right? Except it was cloudy and super windy so it didn’t really feel like 70 degrees. If there was ever a day that it made sense to wear short sleeves and a giant scarf, Friday was that day. The combo actually was perfect for my Friday night movie date because you never know what temperature you’re going to get in a theater. Now that I think about it, in a way, all of Indiana is one big movie theater: unpredictable temperatures and a crap ton of popcorn kernels.

I got this leather pencil skirt a couple months ago during one of Ann Taylor’s many extra zillion percent off super flash self-destruct-in-5-minutes sales. (They’re probably having one right now.) I finally had a chance to wear it this week. Once again, this semester’s internship gives me an excuse to wear some things that are too dressy for class.

I was inspired by a post on M Loves M this week to wear leopard print with this skirt. I was worried it might be – in Tim Gunn’s words – “a lotta look,” but I think this cream blazer kinda tempers it. For a conservative office environment, I try to stick with one statement at a time and then disguise it. Pretty tricksy, huh?

Have a good weekend, everyone!
