OOTD- Let's Have a Meet-up

My outfit did a complete 180 this morning when I ditched the skirt I originally wanted to wear in favor of these cords that just came out of hiding from winter storage. It is so much fun getting reacquainted with the things that were put away at the arrival of summer. Oh, they will have so much fun getting to know my new purchases. Pants, met your new roommate, tee. You guys will have lots of fun this season! :)

OOTD-Warm Weather Confusion

Spring decided to give us a sneak preview yesterday and what do I wear, cashmere and corduroys. As much as I love spring, I don't want winter to quit on me yet because I still have a sweater I want to wear. How selfish of me to deprive others of sunshine fun? :)

In addition to yesterday's lovely weather, it was even better because I got my Girl Scout cookie order in and I dragged my butt to the gym for zumba. I'm not sure if those two things really mix well together, but it made me a happy camper.

On another note, do you see the Starbucks bag that I'm holding in the pics? That is my camera bag. No, seriously. I looked at the bag selection in Staples the other day and instantly frowned up my face. No offense to the perfectly functional sea of black bags I saw, but I need something cuter. Does anyone out there have a recommendation for a nice looking camera case/bag? A girl needs some pizazz.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!

Outfit of the Day- P is for Purple

Last year I was obsessed with getting a pair of skinny cords. It was all J. Crew's fault as I can remember looking through the catalog and seeing a beautiful pair of deep purple cords. However, I missed the boat on them (pretty sure I was being cheap at the time) and cried about the lovely pants that never were. So imagine my delight in spotting a similar pair of rich aubergine skinny cords at Forever 21. Score for way less!!
Today was the perfect day to take them out of hiding, mid-70 degree weather with the sun shining and a slight breeze. No need to bundle up, but still able to wear a scarf or corduroys or suede or boots. I'm in heaven when fall hits!
Is the weather treating you nice in your neck of the woods? What fall item have you been dying to wear?

A little lunchtime shopping with a co-worker. Shh, don't tell the boss!!
