Worn on Thursday 11 Nov 2010
Thoughts: I just posted about bringing things back from trips this week, so I want to tell you that two of my outfit items (well really three, two stockings) in this post came from Japan! This trench coat saw me through months of unpredictable weather when I was studying abroad in Osaka and remains one of my favorite lighter jackets. In fact, this entire outfit (minus belt and add black flats) was a favorite with my friends from study abroad. I went to Japan in January 2008 so I’ve been wearing this for quite a while! I also wore parts of it for the blog last month and in March of this year.
Also, red lipstick is now officially part of my everyday lipwear. I think I’ve worn it for about a week straight! I just woke up one day and thought why shouldn’t I? Red lipstick was the first lip color I ever wore, starting when I was five for ballet performances. Since then it’s always had a bit of a special place in my makeup collection. I seem to be matching the tree again with it! I switched places mid-photoshoot because on the LCD it didn’t look like the photos in the street were exposing properly but they ended up coming out okay! Yay! I would love to take more photos with the red tree in the background but unfortunately there was a huge storm Wednesday morning and now there are only about ten leaves left on the tree :( Soon there won’t be any leaves left on most of the trees, sad because I love when the leaves change color during fall!
Trench coat from Japan, dress from Commander Salamander, Talbots scarf, Target belt, over the knee stockings from Japan, Sofft shoes.
