MILKING IT

10-28-09 1

Because we chose to go to the supermarket on our way home from work, I BARELY had enough light to take my photos tonight.  So, I had to milk it for all it was worth, hence the graininess.

Graininess aside, I love the colors.  So rugged and natural looking.  I almost blend in!

This sweater is going to get a lot of play this winter.  I tried it on at TJMaxx and decided not to get it.  Then, after I left, I couldn't get it out of my mind with it's rope-like belt and cozy, over-sized cowl neck..  I think I was so obsessed with wanting the sequin jacket that I tried on, that I couldn't think straight.  Needless to say, I opted against the sequins - loved it so much, but it was $50 and not very well made.  Since this sweater passed the pillow test (slept on it and was still thinking about it) I decided to go back the next day and snatch it up.  Luckily, it was still there.

I have no idea what I'm doing in this picture, but it needed something.  SO, I preceded to entertain myself for the last 20 minutes by adding this dove.  The husband wants to know what I'm smiling at ... hehehe.  I entitle this photo: Procrastination.  Isn't it pretty?

  1. Is that a real bird!? You must be a magical fairy princess to befriend animals in such a way... Or you had bird seed in your hand. Either way, sweet outfit. I often use to pillow test to decide on purchases as well :)
