I've been asked, on more than one occasion, if I ever have an "off day." I try to reassure people that I do have off days. I phone it in pretty hard during the week. Haha. I'm not what you might call, "naturally gifted," when it comes to dressing myself. I have a tendency to think very carefully about it to the point of completely overthinking it. This unnecessary mental strain makes it impossible for me to be cleverly stylish every single day of the week. I have enough brain juice for the weekends and that's about it.

Picture

I guess this is an example of a "throw away" outfit. I thought really hard about whether to post this, because it bored me to my core. I literally threw this stuff on, before getting on my bike and heading to an improv joint for pizza, beer and laughs. Hehe. This is the kind of outfit I would put into the "needs to be re-worked" pile. In that case, you wouldn't ever see it. So, this is a rare exception. o_O O_o


Picture

I added the glasses patterned socks for just a little bit of flair. If I had added layers to the outfit, it might have been more interesting, but it would have run the risk of looking over-worked and I would have been hot like woah. >_<  By adding just the socks, I satisfied my need for complexity while maintaining the integrity of the outfit as a whole. They made the outfit less boring, but still kept it low-key. ^_^

Yep. Sorry, if this style has you asleep and drooling all over your keyboards. Just keepin' it real. :D

Dude, I hear ya! Sometimes I have barely enough energy to feed myself, not to mention thinking up a fancy outfit :D Sometimes I just want to live in my pajama pants the whole week.
I personally like this ensemble a lot, it's perfect for daily wear and the socks spice it up nicely!

Well, if this is your "throw away" outfit, wow, I loved it! I liked the glasses socks and the checked top, and the bag is great, too! I like comfortable outfits and your seem to be so, and I liked it very much!

Well we have very different ideas of boring outfits because I think this is so good! Those are dream loafers and I love them jazzed up even more with fun socks. I still don't believe you have off days ;)

Hey! We all have those days! This outfit still turned out pretty cool, though. In person, I would've pointed to your socks and complimented you on them. There are some outfits I swear that look cool in person but then not so much blog material... I have some of those that don't end up online!

You have such an amazing style that I do understand that this outfit might feel boring to you.
But I bet you stood out even in this outfit ;) mainstream people are the ones who look deadly boring.

Love those socks! They are so quirky and really made me smile! <3

While this is definitely a much simpler outfit than what you usually wear, it is not boring! I think it is a nice look for what you said-a hang out at a pizza place! Besides, your socks totally make this outfit awesome ... you have so many cook socks. I am completely jealous :)
