Decision Making Process:
Let’s see… I wanted to wear these pants. I haven’t worn them in a long long time. I thought it was about time I would incorporate it into my daily outfit.
I don’t have to go to work right now (I’m still a starving grad student), so I need to make use of all clothes I have at home.
I liked how this pant fall on my legs and is cropped at my cuff. Because this was a bottom for work, I didn’t want it to look like I was going to work somewhere. I needed to casual it down.
Next item I picked up was my stripe long sleeve shirt. This shirt from UNIQLO is made out of stretchy cotton. It is extremely comfortable and stretches. Then I decided to want a warm top on top of it that can enhance both top and bottom. I thought of my white sweater that I got from a clothing swap party I throw a year ago; my girlfriends and I brought our unwanted or old clothes and shoes, and traded with one another for the items we wanted, and donated the leftover clothes.
The sweater is from EXPRESS and it is extremely warm. It a V neck so that my pink stripe can peak out some as well.
I needed to add a belt to secure the pant’s waste, and then decided to wear the yellow boots at the last minute. Originally, I wanted to wear a pumps. I thought, “well, I don’t have to crunch my feet into a pumps when I’m just going to the library”. So I swap it with the boots at the last minute. The boot was far more comfortable than the pumps. However, now that I’m thinking about it, the pumps would have been a lot better look.
- It has a cleaner look and less “weight” on the bottom
- Pumps makes the outfit more “chic” upgrade
- Boot’s color doesn’t match with rest of my outfit too well
This isn’t my favorite look, but I guess I’m okay with it.
