DJ/Radio Producer-turned-Lawyer attempts to dress like a grown-up. Sometimes I comically fail. And I occasionally post fun stuff, like music videos, book-club reviews, or photos of beauty or oddity.
FYI: I was doing this entire blog from my Android phone, snatching moments out of my busy life for quick photos. But I hate auto-correct with a purple passion, so now I'm using the computer for most of the work. I am still using my phone for the photos, though. My photo sizes may be erratic, and the quality isn't stellar. I am not a professional blogger, and do not have time for lots of scenic poses with a great camera. I don't even own a great camera! However, I DO appreciate your continued feedback, even in the absence of photographic artistry.

The fatal flaw…

…in this outfit is that the pants are too short for these shoes, giving me "government-worker floodwater pants":



Other than that, I think it's pretty decent. Remind me of my new mantra: "only buy 'tall' pants, and get then taken up". Average length is always a little too short!

I think I've had the scarf about ten years, and only recently started wearing it:



I tried tying it differently because it was chilly out, the sweater is a v-neck, and I wanted coverage:



The earrings don't go with much, but when they do- perfect:



I just love these newer shoes, and look for any excuse to wear them:



Sweater: Apt 9 via Freeda's purge pile
Scarf: garage sale?
Jacket: via consignment shop
Pants: Lane Bryant
Shoes: Trotters
Earrings: made by Baby Sis

    Great colors for you! I have to do the same thing, buy tall...get altered. It is a pain, but a necessary evil!

    Love the new/old scarf, and the earrings "go" beautifully without "matching" (credit to Stacy and Clinton) : >

    You look lovely. As for the pants, I think a flat shoe would make them the right length. My pants are usually too long!
