La Ropa de Hoy #1

So, I like clothes a lot. I like taking pictures a lot. Naturally, I love when bloggers do outfit posts (I'm addicted to galadarling). I also really like throwing around my minimal knowledge of spanish. Therefore, get used to these posts.

This is what I wore for an ordinary schoolday at the end of a crappy week and to go see a friend perform in a play. It's been kind of a crap week, and I thought dressing up would improve my morale - it worked - this outfit was a hit everywhere today.

This is probably the first time I've ever shown leg outside of gym class at school, and it was an interesting experience. Fortunately, I think I managed not to flash anyone. So, let's break this down:

- Black medallion pendant from Lia Sophia
- Glasses, because I didn't want to take the time to put in contacts this morning! Every minute of sleep counts when you're getting up early to take the school bus..
- Generic red tank purchased from a T.J Maxx ages ago
- Black and white gingham shirt from Forever 21
- Black ruffle mini skirt from Forever 21 which I bought two years ago for a mime costume. This is only the third time I've ever worn it.
- Red Chuck Taylors. These are pretty much all I have ever worn to school, because I don't want to changes shoes for gym. These shoes have increased the amount of red in my wardrobe, just because I want them to match.

For a fabulous night of Chipotle and high school theater, I switched to this:

- Completely fabulous zebra print trench coat from Forever 21.
- Red beads from Claire's.
- White purse from Wal-mart. (I love the look, and it holds my school supplies, but the quality level is such that you can tell it's from Wal-mart. I'm not sure how long this will last.)
- Shiny black leggings - "catwoman pants" - from Target.
- Still red Chucks.

One of my friends said this coat makes me look like a referee... I'm not buying it.

Excellent start to my weekend!
