I'm bad at consistency.

True story: I did National Novel Writing Month this year, and did manage to finish for once, but I did epic weekend catchup sessions to do it.  Seriously, there was one Saturday where I went to a write-in and pounded out 10,000 words.

So, I think I have to come up with some sort of more sensible schedule for me to do this, rather than attempting every day and then getting off track.  I do have outfit photos for Thursday and Friday last week, but this week?  Darth Real Life got the better of me.  But if anyone's actually reading this, you get three photos now for the price of one.  I'm generous like that... or something.

Dark wash jeans- Gap
Purple knit tee - H&M
Brown wool cardigan - Sparrow via Anthropologie
Red flats - Madden Girl

 
 Dark jeans - Gap
Green patterned tank - Anthropologie
Black cardigan - Express
Black Jenna flats - Bass

Purple "Robot Dance Contest" knit tee - Threadless
Olive khaki pants - Daughters of the Liberation via Anthropologie
Black Jenna flats - Bass (no really, I had them on at work)

So, that last photo is today, and yes, it was indeed a lazy Friday.  I dragged myself reluctantly out of bed and said, "What is the least offensive thing I can put on without any effort whatsoever?"  Super casual for a Friday?  Hell yes.  But there is nothing not to love about the robot dance t-shirt.  I also wore my xkcd hoodie this morning, but was too lazy to hunt it back down for the photo. This right here is pretty typical of what I usually wear to work, but I am trying to do better... it's possible I should swear off the 'jeans and a t-shirt' look for a while.  I'll consider it.

The first picture, which was last Friday, is probably a better example of lazy yet comfortable Friday wear.  I adore that sweater.  It's cozy and actually visually interesting, unlike many sweaters I have owned over the years.  I'm also getting a lot of mileage out of that purple tee, which I picked up as a layering item on a whim, and has actually turned out to be awesome.  It helps that I love all things purple, but still.

As for the middle ensemble, it's another great example of comfortable wear.  I got the tank because it's super lightweight and is fabulous in the summer, but wearing it with the cardigan makes it very wearable in the frigid 60's (at least, people keep telling me it's frigid, whereas I'll merely concede it's no longer tank top weather.  Those two things seem interchangeable here).  Also, I love those red flats.  They're simple and go with a surprising number of things, and make any outfit look just a little more awesome.  They're one of my better shoe purchases.

Weekends are probably going to be off days for me, just because I like the idea of not having to worry about posting on weekends, but I'll see what I can figure out for my regular posting schedule.  Maybe I'll grow some discipline and just get better at taking pictures every day.  Of course, we'll be moving into longer work days soon, and then will come end-of-show insanity.  That will probably lead to hilarity, and possibly me slouching about in sweat pants and t-shirts.  Don't say I didn't warn you.
