Quick question Portland - why is it 90 degrees today, 95 degrees tomorrow, and continuing in the low 90s for the rest of the week? I couldn't even comfortably wear this cardigan to work today. Unacceptable, I say! Let's get back into the mid-70s and have a picnic.
In other news it has been a rough week. So rough in fact that last night we bought a pizza at the store and when we opened it to find that the packaging had been opened inside the box and the pizza effectively spoiled (for me - I'm food-poisoning-phobic), I cried myself to sleep, hysterically. Well, that's real life for you guys. Sometimes, I am taking outfit photos and look really pleased and sometimes I'm laying in bed holding my stuffed elephant sobbing while Ben pats my head at 9 p.m.
But today, at the end of a long day full of miniature failures that added insult to a pile of personal injuries, I got my hair cut! Hooray! I found a great little Aveda salon next to my apartment and after getting a head massage and sniffing my freshly cut locks that are no longer a field-day for split ends, I felt immensely better. But that could be the chilled bottle of rose (now in my tummy) talking. And I have great things to look forward to tomorrow: Fall into Fashion in downtown Portland with Jane. I will be sure to take some photos and report on the fun Portland "fashion week" happenings!
P.S. This cardigan is killing me softly with its song, killing me softly. I cannot get enough of the fact that I can safely transport my stripes into fall with this piece. Banana has an awesome sale going on right now, so you can get it for a discount if you're interested.
