All Saints’ Day

Tuesday, November 1st, 2011 | 35 Comments

I still get out and decorate the house for Halloween
these candles are from my friend who got them at the Daiso a few years ago, I put them out every year

Took down all the Halloween decorations after work today.

I also wore all black to the office today except for the American Apparel shoe laces in blush pink on my black oxfords. Sadly there wasn’t as much “left over” candy going around like previous years.

I told ppl it was for Day of the Dead - black chunky knit, black belt, with shiny black cropped tuxedo pants paired with black oxfords
earrings, I'm using my spin pins to keep my hair up in a bun. I'm glad I can use them again finally.
black Fossil watch with opal face, this was a xmas gift last year from mom-in-law

Closet

Sunday, October 30th, 2011 | 71 Comments

Finished clearing out all the left over summer/fall stuff from my closet today. Reorganized a few other things in it too. nothing huge but even little changes make it feel so fresh & new to me. I used “Soft Focus” on my camera, I won’t to love this filter but I feel meh about it. Also I just saw a post I did on my closet in 2009… haha whoa so different!

Before

first a mess then I picked up some hahah
…then I picked up the mess first…
before with late summer clothes still up

After

i took these tonight so the lighting is soft yellow, should have adjusted white balance huuurr
Sweaters, cardigans, blouses, and corduroy.
moved some extra tights and etc into these bags on top
work clothing mostly
after with just winter blouses, sweaters, and cords

Dresses, blouses, tops are along the top.

Work-only clothing is most of what’s along the bottom except a few outerwear jackets. I keep my heavy coats in the coat closet.

Knit cardigans are on the middle shelf! I don’t like to hang them in fear they’ll lose their shape. So I fold them here. I also keep my jeans folded here. I only have 1 real pair of jeans I wear these days and 2 pairs of thick “jeggings” I sometimes wear. I really don’t wear jeans too often so why bother~

Sweaters and skirts are in the IKEA drawers. I also keep my ribbon tie shorts, pleated skort and soft chinos in these. They’re soft material so I don’t want to hang them. Also in these drawers are tanks, belts, pajamas, socks, etc type clothing.

Oh yeah, in that Madewell bag by my mirror I keep all my favorite tights! I love keeping them like this because it makes it easy to put in & take out tights which is nearly a daily occurrence for me in winter. In the two IKEA boxes under the bag are extras like a whole box full of just tote bags and pouches. I’m not kidding…
