Weather and Fashion-- Why no compliance?

It's been a pretty normal past two days... High points:

    First meeting as a newly elected officer!  It was great to listen to all the speakers, and get to know more of the faculty members.  Plus, there was Chinese food... whoever invented the idea of a dinner meeting was a GENIUS.

    Weather never cooperates with my "cute outfit" days.  Naturally, I dressed up for my first meeting but did not account for the flood-like waters on my walk back from said meeting.  My pants were soaked from mid-thigh all the way down!  And my poor, poor flats... they were quite wet from the 4 inches of water on the sidewalk!

   Due to my run-in with the rain, I was not feeling the whole "go out and socialize on a Thursday evening whilst playing Trivia" idea.  Instead, I went into nerd - mom mode.  I did some quality homework for two hours and then snuggled up in my PJs to download new tunes to my iPod.  Oh, and of course had to catch the latest episode of Jersey Shore.  I just can't look away-- it's too captivating.

  I leave you with the best visual of the night....

  Me, snuggled in my latest Lilly Pulitzer teal & pink printed pajamas.  My adorable purple and lime green lamp dimly providing light to the bedroom.  Reading the beautiful "True Prep" book as my first 'fun read' since being at school.   It makes me miss all my sorority sisters and captivating undergraduate life in small-town Virginia.  Oh, to be back below the Mason-Dixon....


    Welp, it's Friday night and I'm going out on the town.  I'm ignoring the weather reports and am headed out in a gorgeous J.Crew orange sundress coupled with a jet-setting jean jacket.  And of course, my latest steal--- carmel suede flats with cute gold buckles.  Here's to a fashionably-fun evening, ya'll.  Cheers!
