A Break from the Silence

The skirt has pockets!

Everything: Thrifted

           Sorry for the crickets last week. I’ve actually been super busy but haven’t been wearing any blog worthy outfits. I got an internship a few weeks ago with a local non-profit so now most of my days off I’m interning. This is actually great news for the blog, since I’m not just roaming around in my PJ’s. Anyway last week the company I’m interning for moved to a different location so I telecommuted, which essentially means I sat on the couch making lots and lots of graphs in my Pj’s lounge wear. Anyway this week I’m back to actual commuting so I should have some more outfits coming. My internship office is pretty casual so my options are pretty wide, within reason of course.
         I had an outfit picked out for today but scraped it when I woke up and it was raining. I was contemplating wearing pants but decided on a skirt when I saw it was supposed to be 91 today. I thrifted this skirt a couple weeks ago at a Savers 50% off sale but I didn’t really try it on. I like the skirt but I think I could probably shorten it a little.  I’m kind of obsessed with these shoes. I had been looking for some Minnetonka Moccasins for awhile. I hadn’t had any luck and was thinking about buying some new when I found these at Savers. I think they may be a wee bit too small for me, as I’ve worn them a couple times and they’re still not broken in, but I’m determined to make them work.

I’ve been thinking about my wardrobe and I’ve found myself craving slightly edgier pieces.  This sort of […]

A Verry Merry Blog-o-versery to me!

        Today is Black Cat Lies’ 1st Blog-o-versery! I had originally planned to  start this blog on July 1st but I just couldn’t wait.  My blog has had a slower start than some, due in part to the fact that last year I was sort of getting my feet wet with the whole blogging thing […]
