I like those days like today, when it's warm in the sun and cool in the shade. Ah, October.
Today I'm wearing a 1-inch button of Barack Obama I bought at a hip hop festival back in 2005, and I remember hoping then that he might run successfully for president...how close we are to that reality!
gray wool beret, valarie's collection
vintage white clip on ear buttons, thrifted
gray knit cape, H & M
tiny obama button, scribblejam 2005
black cowlneck knit dress, thrifted
black gloves, swap from atomicrose
turquoise nugget ring, harvard square street fair
turquoise tights, H & M
vintage white leather boots, thrifted in las vegas
The other day in an attempt to entertain Hans, I started singing "This Old Man", but I couldn't get through the first verse without laughing. What a ridiculous song, really! And I felt ridiculous singing it.
Anyway...he got a kick out of it. :oD
gray felt fedora, flea market
silver hoops, steve & barry's
vintage lanvin scarf, thrifted
sky blue adidas jacket, thrifted
wine corduroy jacket, thrifted
paisley print skirt, thrifted
vintage navy ferragamo pumps, thrifted
Also, I just wanted to say that I especially liked the way this outfit came together; it's one of my better ones, I think.

Here's a question: can there be infinite growth on a finite planet? If not, why do we pretend otherwise?
I know the above question is most marginally related to my outfit, but I've really had a lot on my mind lately regarding our collective future...
