She's a Mixer

I wish ladies, that I could come to you with some awesome tales of

adventure, but alas, the past several days I've been sitting in front of

 my computer listening to a court case between people who, let's just

say English is not their first language... it's been some tough listening!

There's just something about the cooler months that draw me to 

plaid.  Probably because it comes in the form of warmer material.

While it was an ideal autumn day I guess I wasn't feeling too seasonal,

for this gray ensemble is so not fall-ish.  There's still plenty of time for the

autumn looks, October has yet to come and then it'll all be about orange!

I've seen this mixing of plaid and stripes before, specifically speaking, 

in the blogging sphere,  and while thinking they pulled it off, I myself 

have been a little more reluctant to put it to the test.  Then I woke up

 yesterday, hating every outfit I was coming up with, and I decided to stop 

living in this close-minded box of mine. I'm glad I gave this a whirl too, 

'cause I really I liked how it turned out.  It makes me think back to just

four years ago and my closet filled with black.   And prints?  No way.

Hah.  I'm probably making myself sound like a drag, but black and 

solids?  They're just easy.  And a bit of a no-brainer.
