These high-waisted coral pants are very comfortable. I really should wear them more often.

Jacket Jackpot w/ 3Fifteen
Ever since I moved up to Syracuse, I have been scrambling to get winter gear to keep me from freezing to death up here. Thanks to 3Fifteen’s 50% sale last weekend, I was able to snag three good jackets to add to my collection.

The Versatile Military Jacket
There are some great combo options with the military jacket. I’m excited to test this jacket out with layering, patterns and prints!

Sunday Best: Teal We Meet Again
I love these teal pants but I haven’t gotten the chance to wear them. I paired them with a plaid vintage jacket and my comfy wedge heels.
WAYW: First Sign of Cold
The temperature was 58 degrees this morning in Syracuse. It’s September!! And like the Nigerian-Houstonian that I am, I layered like I was deep into of Autumn. Other than my hands, I was warm enough. When I stepped outside, I noticed people wearing short sleeves and shorts. If 58 degrees is considered weather, I’m not prepared for the type of weather that requires jackets and coats.
I’d been wearing a light jacket but after I got out of my 8am class, my jacket was no longer necessary.
WAYW Button-Down, Chains, and Skirt

WAYW: Training for the First Day of Grad School Year 1
<a
I was in training last week for my instructional assistant job this semester. It was laid back attire but, of course, I dressed up a little bit.
As I was thinking about my back-to-school outfits, I realized that I'm probably going to be dressing a little like a teacher during my time as a grad student. Let's face it, must of my closet are remnants from my classroom days. Without even meaning to, I may look like a teacher 88.2% of the time because of my blazer+dress or cardigan+skirt combos. I like it though. It's not my first time at the rodeo so I want people to be able to differentiate me from the undergrads. My wardrobe should help. I'm excited about this first full semester of grad school. I can't wait to learn and grow.
#31WriteNow: Salvation Army Thrift Haul
This was actually my first time shopping at a Salvation Army. I had shopped at Goodwill and other resale shops but, for some reason, not Salvation Army. Luckily, we went on a Wednesday, so many of the items were 50% off.
Before I started shopping, I gave myself a budget and a shopping objective. My budget was $20 and my shopping objective was to find articles of clothing with good prints and patterns.
I bought 8 items and I was a teensy bit under budget. Call me a Happy Thrifter.
