Wearing the Pants

sweater: my mom's, button up: thrifted, jeans: forever 21, booties: urban outfitters, purse: vintage
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! ♥ This post isn't really focused on that, though, because it is a normal school day during an extremely busy school week. This is the last week before ski week, where we have Feb. 20-24 off from school. It seems my school district gives a lot of breaks during the year... We have another week off in April for spring break, too!

While putting together this outfit, I was heavily inspired by my lovely friend Nicole of Coco Maria to wear pants. Does that sound weird? I love all of her looks, but whenever she wears pants I'm always like why can't I look put together and awesome in pants? So, on Sunday, I tried my luck at wearing pants. How did I do? Other than wearing pants, my Sunday was relatively uneventful. And my weekend went by way too quickly as normal. The soiree on Friday was good though, and Nat's band did well! :) Saturday was a failed attempt at going into the city, if you were wondering. Hopefully this Saturday Nat and I will go and celebrate a belated Valentine's Day though. Are you and your significant other doing anything special? Or are you celebrating today as SAD - Single Awareness Day? Sorry, I always thought that acronym was funny... :) Have a great day, everyone! xx

  1. I love this look, especially that bag! And I love Nicole's blog too :) I feel the same way about pants! They are really hard to wear for us dress/skirt lovers for some reason. You pull it off very well. PLUUUUS the setting of these photos is really beautiful!

  9. So, you sure can rock those pants. I personally do not own any, I can never find any that flatter me and my big boooooty hahha. Also, that blazer is amazing and I kind of want to touch it!

    Alright, I've been creepy enough.
