Why am I posing so awkwardly in the first photo? Let’s forget about it and move on…

Stop staring at my crotch, OK?

Despite these somewhat awkward photos, I really like this outfit. I wore it for my Saturday morning class. I realized a couple months ago that I have almost no real green clothing. Mint green, yes. But real green – like the color of trees and stuff – no. I consider myself an equal opportunity color wearer, so I’m not sure how I overlooked poor little old green.

So I made it a goal for the fall to find something green, and since I’m loving colored denim recently, I figured why not green jeans?! Ta da!

This is an outfit I wore over the weekend to have lunch with my old freshman roommate, who lives in California, so I haven’t seen her in YEARS. Part of the fun – or horror – of going to college is getting thrown into a tiny room with a random person whom you may or may not like. Your freshman roomie is probably someone you’ll never forget, either because he/she was your very first friend in college, or because he/she was the freak of all freaks. Lucky for me, mine was the former!

We spent Sunday reminiscing about the good ol’ days (the parts we remember, anyway) and catching up on how our lives have changed since then. I think we’ve matured, but only slightly. Here’s a picture of us in our dorm room in 2003, and us today! We’re kind of like wine…age has only done good things for us.
