What I'm Wearing

Well, right now I'm wearing sweatpants and an old t-shirt. It's saturday morning, I don't have to go to school (although I do have a large sum of homework that I need to get to...eventually), so I'm not worrying about what I'm wearing just yet.
Lately I have been experimenting with sweater dressing, sweater dresses, sweater skirts, sweater boots,  and plain ol' sweaters too. It is FINALLY getting cold in Texas and I am taking advantage of it. With sweater dressing it's best to keep it very simple, or very complicated, simple being just a few pieces that look sharp but cozy, and complicated being multiple layers that are sometimes hard to shred if it becomes warmer because you cant figure out what is what.
