A quick post tonight because it's late and I'm sleepy. Chris and I just got back from having dinner with friends in East Boston, I love that we live so close to the city. The past couple of days have been extremely busy at the College I work at, admissions hosted a couple of open house events so today I opted for comfort in my wardrobe choices. I bought this dress and bag last week on my New York trip with Jen. As much as I love vintage and thrift, sometimes it's nice to have new things. I love the kind of frenchy-mod style of this mini dress and the studded bag is exactly what I've been looking for. I was definitely comfortable too, good for running around campus!

My hair style today was inspired by all the beautiful twists I've been seeing lately on the Urban Outfitters website. I woke up really late today and needed something easy, and this off center bun fit the bill. I've been getting lots of hair questions lately, my monthly hair post will be coming next week!

Also, someone asked about the knitting pattern I used for the cowl in my last post. I'm sorry to say I didn't use a pattern at all, it was all free form (and very imperfect). I just cast on 18 stitches and knit half a scarf and then sewed it together. Very un-technical!

I hope everyone has a great weekend, I'm off to watch 21 Jump Street with Chris! Yes!
