Well, as a friend of mine told me - being unemployed and starving does not mean that I should sit at home and cry over the absence of job interviews after thousands of sent out resumes. She said she wakes up every day and drives to a hipster coffee shop to get a latte. "I do it with determination, with the clear I've got a purpose look on my face", she said, "I am on a mission!" I decided to get on a mission, too. So now even a regular drive to the 99 cents store will be performed in my Sunday's best, so to speak. I am not dead yet.
The skirt is the recent RODARTE creation for Target, and I snatched the last one in size 9 (thank god those are Junior sizes and obviously based on European Juniors who look as they are supposed to look and not like overweight piglets, like in certain places I know). When I was in the fitting room, I overheard two women speaking about it and one remarked, Why? Why are they selling out to Target? - "Oh goodness" I wanted to reply, - Why don't you just sew that stupid mouth of yours? It's publicity, very good market earnings, and hell, why not? It's not a regular line, anyway! And thank god they do. I love my yellow skirt for 29.99. I am unemployed, yet still beautiful, dammit."
The turtleneck is probably from La Redoute. It has buttons on the sleeves up until the elbow and slight pleating on the chest. Turtlenecks are not my thing but this one I love.
I tried to show the boots - hence the awkward dork pose - one of my first Delia purchases a few years ago. Shabby worn but still good.
Clarissa did not change from last Monday, so she just threw a quick Gap multicolor snake of a scarf on. Apologies for my mess, I live in a very small apartment, and have a very small room stuffed with my room mate's belongings (my roomie is a pack rat of the worst kind).
