Black I.
Perhaps my outfit got the best of me today. It is black and black and black all over, so maybe that set the wrong tone. Let’s just say that I’m not proud of my performance and if do-overs existed, one would be in order. As it stands, my black I turned into a black eye.
But enough blaming the outfit, which in all fairness, was probably more of a solution than a problem. The deco-inspired, black velvet burn-out top came from Macy’s and while the receipt for this one is missing, a second purchased in green suggests a price in the $30 range. The black pleather-front leggings by Lauren were also purchased at Macy’s - originally $125, these were found for over 80% off at $20. Rounding the outfit out were the shoes that came from DSW. The final purchase price is unknown, but with a clearance blue sticker of $39.94, they were likely at least 30% off that price, so clearly keeping the outfit well within budget.
There’s no way to turn back time on the day, but perhaps a pop of color could help tomorrow go a bit better?
