Speaking of Grey Cardigans...

For once, I made a (fashion) threat that WASN'T empty. My Tabio Heart Tights arrived last week, and it was love at first sight!

I probably could have gone a size down (funky Japanese sizing + being right on the cusp between medium and large + being used to the retardedly small-ness of AA tights = I can already tell they're gonna saaag) but I absolutely love the print and the sheerness.

Also, after the last post, Suzy reminded me that I don't in fact own a single grey cardigan. It's not for lack of trying, oh no, but somehow I still haven't been able to get my hands on that perfect, cozy, slouchy sweater...until I nabbed one out of my bf's closet this morning. Woops!

With all the grey and black and white going on, I had to throw in a little color, so I brought out my other awesome fringey scarf. Somehow I managed to find the two of them within a few weeks of each other, and I've never seen another before or since...

  4. 'cha girl i'm way impressed with your follow-through on this one!

    i'm loving the dark nylon on you..my knees are incredibly knobby so anytime i wear dark nylons they only accentuate every weird crevice i inherited from my mom. it's hard to explain so, fuck it, i'm going to blahg about it right now while i wait for my bf to bring me food.

  6. E.K.: of course, let's trade! Don't know why I didn't think of it ages ago.

    Anon: I bought the boots several years ago at Thrift Town in San Francisco, my favorite thrift store in the world :n )

  11. Yay you got the tights! I wouldn't worry too much about them sagging, I've had about 12 pairs of tights from Tabio and none of them have sagged yet, they have all been the opaque ones though. I love your boots and your stripey dress.
