Kristy of Mono ~ Chroma ~ Chic told me I need to post more outfit shots on the blog, so I’ve been making more of an effort to do so.
Back to the closet for outfit shots!

On Monday, when I was busy taking my “Beauty Tuesday” photos (originally intended to be “Makeup Monday” photos, but I ended up taking too much time and needing to work on other things, like my actual paying side job), I made sure to grab a few photos of my outfit of the day.
When I feel like crap and I don’t know what to wear, I usually gravitate toward work trousers and a t-shirt. The only thing I did different here was put on a necklace and a belt. Instead of my usual heels, I wore flats, since I was having a major lupus flare and the pain on top of my feet was unbearably similar to a stress fracture feeling. It’s funny that I gravitate toward standard work trousers and t-shirts as a “I feel like shit” uniform because normally, the outfit isn’t that bad. But who knows? I’ve been trending toward ultra-feminine lately, with skirts, ruffles and scarves, perhaps that explains my confusion.
And since my hair has been trending toward “shitty 80s Madonna-black-roots-blond grow out phase”, wherein I have little to no extra funds for haircare, I threw my hair into a lazy Japanese ballerina-style top bun. Now that my bangs are long enough to tuck in, it makes having the tremendously difficult to style hair phase a bit more bearable.
(The one thing I like about this outfit is that, while it does make me look incredibly skinny and much, much tinier than my other outfits, it makes my chest look loads smaller. One thing I hate most about my body, other than my acne, is that I think my breasts could be much smaller than they are (34Cs). I will save that for another post.)
{ Answer me this: When you have bad days, what are your habits? Do you have a uniform for your makeup? What about your clothes? Do you do special things to wake you out of your funk? }
