Girl From the North Country: Geek Squad

Finally, a cloudy day! I was so bummed that out of all the days that it has been sunny and I've been miserable in sleeveless tops, the one day it's overcast and I'm not feeling well and have nothing to do for the day! If I had class today, I would have been so excited to wear this outfit out. I bought this sweater a few weeks ago but haven't had a chance to wear it. It was still kind of muggy today, but I didn't even care. I'm that desperate for sweater season!

I really liked the way the photos came out today in this weather, too. When it's really sunny outside, it creates harsh shadows and they're harder to correct later on in the editing process. Overcast days give out even shade and I love it for taking photos! It might not be pretty outside, but the photos look pretty, and that's what matters to me when it comes to blog pictures!

I love it when I go shopping and afterwards when I'm looking through what I bought, I find pieces that would go great together. That's what happened with this skirt and sweater. I bought them both at the same time, and when I got home and was unpacking my shopping bags, I envisioned this outfit! The looseness and length of this sweater makes it perfect to wear with a skirt like this. It gave off a nerdy vibe to me, so I definitely thought it was a day to skip the contacts and bust out the antique-y clock necklace I've had for years but haven't worn in forever! Gotta love old favorites.

Do you ever come home from a shopping spree and realize you had a perfect outfit picked out and didn't even realize it?
