Now, while I am always complaining about how I wish it were fall and blah blah blah, now that it is actually fall, I have come to a few realizations. One, it is cold. Two, While I have lots of boots and jackets, I don't have much else in the way of dealing with cold weather. Thirdly, this is a predicament. Now, I have given this much thought over the last week and when on Friday I went to see Of Montreal, I stopped in Berkeley to do some shopping. What did I buy? A short sleeved sheer t-shirt, a pair of acid washed short shorts, and a slip. Yes, I have no self-control and my shopping alter ego has no common sense. I almost bought a 98 dollar swimsuit...YEESH.
Anyway, I came back home to FREEEZE. The weather has turned cold and I'm not sure what to do. I have two long sleeve shirts. This is not good. I have two pairs of jeans. This means that I can make it through about two days of the week. Of course jeans are reusable, but shirts...not so much. SO I ordered two shirts for 15 each from Urban Outfitters on sale. They are included below.
However, my feet are still cold in the house and one can not wear motorcycle boots TO EVERY occasion. (yes, tis a pity, but also a fact of life and growing up) Therefore, I am now on a major hunt for a nice pair of warm slippers to wear outdoors. Moccasins are nice, but also SO LAST year. I mean, if you love them, by all means get them, but unless they're studded, I'll pass. Luckily, I found my dream slippers. And, if I can over look (which I can't, thus the word DREAM) the 350 dollar price tag, they will be mine. They're Stubbs & Wooster which is THE best slipper store in the world as far as I'm concerned. I need a pair. For pjs, for dresses, for wearing with jeans and argyle socks.

Stubbs and Wooster like Jeeves and Wooster? I'm sold! Well, almost ($350?! lawdie!). I have the same problem with the cold weather. I bought a pair of red, acid wash skinnies from AA that mollified me a bit ;)
Hope you have a happy, happy Thanksgiving!!!
AHHHHH! I know they're NOT a reality. They are in my "If I were Mary-Kate Olson and needed to spend money" consideration pile. BTW, that pile is HUGE. H&M will hopefully make some knock-offs. I mean with Gossip Girl in season, the whole preppy slipper look is bound to trickle through. Let me know if you see any!!! I am reading the Jeeves and Wooster books as we...type! I'm hoping to get some as stocking stuffers! Don't you love Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie in the bbc series?!?!??!!? Ah...Stephen Fry.
I LOVE those jeans. They are loud and proud! Way to keep winter/fall alive and kicking. :D
Happy Turkey Day to you too! I'm happy to have two awesome cousins. (although I know I have some fabulous boy cousins too...in case they read this)
