At the beginning of the project, is when you know the least.*

ootd
Top: C & C California
Necklace: gifted (hard to see, but it's a neat glass pendant of various colors)
Jacket: big; incredibly warm
Jeans: Banana Republic
Bag: Dean Accessories
Boots: Cydwoq

It'll be nice when it's sufficiently bright after work for taking work wardrobe pics again. I really don't care for indoor pics, hence the cavalcade of casualness.

* Attended some Agile management training; it was mind-bending to say the least.

Random bag lust

...or is that love?

I actually need a small bag, and have been more than pleased with the Dean "Thimble" bag I already own. Dithering between the wallet-on-a-strap above, or the clutch:

...which purports to come with both a wrist and a long strap. sigh decisions...

I'm not looking for a countermand, dear. I'm looking for reverse.

ootd
Top: C & C California
Cardigan: Hugo Boss
Skirt: J.Crew Nico (from Feb. 2010)
Tights: Uniqlo Heattech
Boots: Cydwoq

Here I am speculating whether Heattech tights can transform a summery skirt into something winter-wonderful.

The short answer is, yeah. Mind you, today was not particularly arctic, but it was chilly. These tights run small-ish (I'm accustomed to ordering large in stuff like this), and they're 100% synthetic (other tights on the Uniqlo site contain a small percentage of wool and I'll wager they are substantially warmer). A nice factor is the "support"-ive quality—these fit rather tight, but firm-tight not uncomfortable-tight.

Of course, it is the end of the year (sorta) and time to showcase the best kids in the world. :)
