This is number five

Today wraps up the capsule wardrobe challenge with the blue dress again. I should have worn the black dress, but as I'm getting over this cold, I'm all about comfy. I do think it's starting to go away, as I drank coffee today. Whenever I get sick, I never want coffee, which is strange because normally I drink several cups a day.

I think I made a mistake of opting for this furry vest instead of another pair of shoes. I die going through the week with only two pairs of shoes. In an ideal week, I'd wear seven different pairs.

This weekend I want to go see "I Am Number Four", because I saw that preview with the Adele song and Quinn Fabray, and superpowers, and thought it was just my kind of movie.

Today I hemmed my new pencil skirt, and when I tried it on again, I had to make an outfit. Sadly I won't be wearing this particular look until it warms up, so here is a little preview. I really love it.

    love that vest but I know what you mean about shoes, I usually like to switch mine around too. For a moment I thought your hair mysteriously got really long... and then I realized it was your necklace. Looks very cool!

    I love wearing lots of different shoes each week, too!
    How was "I am No. 4"? It looks intriguing, and you look wonderful (couldn't even tell you weren't feeling 100 percent!) Glad you're back to the java!
