Outfit: What the HECK, Oregon?!?



Dear Oregon, it is almost March. Please stop this nonsense. Thanks. -Leanna

So this is what I woke up to this morning. That, and all my still-in-high-school buddies crying up a storm on facebook because school wasn't canceled. Waa waa. I still had to go to work, quit your blubbering. 

My dear puppy Pippin loves the snow. Don't ask me why, because I would think it was make him cold and uncomfortable to run around and cover himself with snow balls (seriously, I had to blow dry him when he came in this morning because he was covered and it sets into his hair). To torture him, I asked him if he wanted to play ball with me, and promptly starting throwing snow balls for him to chase.

Poop little guy (ETA: I have been informed of the typo, but shall leave it for comedic purposes. Thanks, Allison!). He would run   around trying to find where it had gone, and if he did manage to find it it just fell apart when he tried to pick it up. Also, I'm amazed my lame microphone picked up my dopey dog-voice from all the way across the yard. I don't normally talk like that, I swear. :)

Anyways, this is not what I was planning on wearing at all today, but I hadn't planned on a freaking blizzard rolling through Oregon (not really a blizzard, but annoying nonetheless) so I had to make some last minute adjustments.
Question: Does it look weird to wear a necklace and cowl at the same time? I keep on going back and forth and it and I can't make up my mind. So what say you?

Outfit: Free Coffee!

 Well, this is what I'm wearing today. Blah blah blah, boring I know.

The exciting thing today is that I got free coffee! Well, not really free, but I finally filled up my punch card from the coffee shop next door. So of course, I treated myself to the big size (20oz.) instead of my usual medium (16oz.).
 Also, I got mini donuts! And yes, they have chocolate frosting and Oreo crumbles on top. Yum.
 Between the time I started this blog and now, my donuts disappeared. Please let me know if you see them around anywhere.
Oh, well, I might have eaten them actually, so never mind.

Outfit: What to wear when you just don't care...

There are a few thing I ask you to excuse:
-My boring outfit
-My dopey facial expression
-The lack of prices
-My wild-woman hair
-That I was too lazy to cut this out.
-This entire outfit blog. I don't even know why I bothered putting it together.

There's actually a reason I am dressed so uninterestingly (totally not a word, but whatever) today. I have grand plans of redecorating the store I work at, and that involves a lot of heavy lifting and pushing stuff around. So no skirts and heels for me today!

Outfit: Multi-Purpose

Today I'm doing lots of things.
1) Going to get coffee
2) Going to work
3) Going to dinner
4) Going to a play
5) Going home

Most people would wear like 3 different outfits for a day like mine. But me? I just wear the same thing for all events. I have the most kick-awesome (yeah, I just said kick-awesome. No potty-mouthing here!) job ever that the dress code for is "dress pretty", so it's no big deal to wear something that will carry me throughout the day. I'll just add a coat for tonight so I don't freeze to death and I'm set!

Outfit: Red --- Day 27: Problematic

Red is one color that I've never really been able to get that excited about. I love me some green, blue, yellow, and pretty much any other color, but when it comes to my wardrobe I tend to avoid red at all costs. I think that's because in most cases, red just isn't a good color for me. With my coloring, anything but the exact right shade of red makes me looks gross.

Thankfully, this cowl is that perfect exact shade of red. It's a bit of a risk ordering things online since colors can look different on different monitors, but my gamble paid off big time because I love it! And my red tights aren't really the best shade, but it's not a big deal because they aren't right next to any visible skin.

Day 27: A problem that you have had.
Ugh, man these topics are really starting to annoy me. Only 3 more days.... only 3 more days... only 3 more days...
One time I had a hang nail. That was a problem, but I clipped it off and it wasn't a problem anymore.
Then another time I locked myself out of the house while I was barefoot and had to trudge through my backyard (while it was raining) so I could break in through the laundry room window, which is a LOT higher off the ground that I thought at first.
And then another time I was in Vietnam and one of my eyelids swelled up so bad I couldn't even see out of that eye for a while until the swelling started to go down. That happened to be the day I was flying home, and everyone in the airport looked at me weird and some little Chinese girl in the Hong Kong airport just stood and stared at me while I washed my hands in the bathroom. I still don't know why it happened.
The end.

Outfit: Militarized

So, I decided since my background (a blank wall) was so boring, why have a background at all? What do you guys think? Too stark? Too awesome? Let me know!

Anyways, I'm wearing my combat boots with my military jacket today. To counteract the theme-y-ness of that, I opted for a floral skirt instead of jeans or (heaven forbid) my army green pants. Like most things, military-inspired pieces are really fun, but only in moderation. Write that down.

Outfit: Basic Math --- Day 18: Beliefs

So after I got dressed this morning, I realized that I'm wearing the exact colors as I did yesterday, only reversed. Also, I'm wearing a very similar top and skirt combo as I did about a week ago. So I came to the conclusion that what I'm wearing today is a combination of the two, as illustrated mathematically below.
Cool. am I right?

Anyways, 30 Day Challenge! Are you guys getting bored of this yet? I kind of am, but if I quit now then I'd be... well, I'd be a quitter! And no one likes a quitter, so I shall endure.
As usual, click HERE to see the full list of topics.

Day 18: Your Beliefs
Whaaaaaaat? That prompt is way too big. Because I believe a lot of things. For example, I believe in gravity, that paper comes from trees, that the inside of an egg can either be eaten or turned into a baby chicken, that 2+2=4, that being tall is fun, and that this question is silly.
I also believe that coffee is yummy, clothes are fabulous, my puppy is cute, that I'm getting sick of Christian radio (that's what plays at work), that pennies are dumb, that polar bears are pretty but I wouldn't want to hug one, that the burger shop that I work next too smells soooo good, that the sky is blue, and that even though it's sunny outside it's still cold.
The end.

Outfit: Welcome to 2011

I was looking through my outfit posts and I realized these shoes haven't been worn yet in 2011. Welcome to the new year, shoes! (Speaking of shoes, have you checked out my new blog yet?)

Anyways, I got a new cowl! Well, I got two actually, but it would look weird to wear two at the same time. I got this one from strawberrycountry on Etsy. 

I'm chopping up my outfit post and 30 Challenge post today because I think my challenge post is going to be looooonnngggg today. Hurray!
