Thrifted Pinterest - Blacked Out

Apparently I'm a trendsetter.  I put today's outfit together, and didn't see my inspiration photo until afterwards!  The inspiration was actually from a recent runway show:

I saw that, and remembered I just recently wore an all black outfit as well, complete with textured tights and ankle boots.  See?

You'll have to excuse the awkward pose I've gotten myself into, I was trying to show off my purple fingernails.  Instead, I just look uncomfortable.  Oh, well!  Oh, and funny story: when I wore this, we went after church to go visit my brother and sister in law's new baby girl (and them, of course!).  They also are the proud parents of two pugs.  Let me tell you, all black is the wrong thing to be wearing when you're getting pug cuddles!

Dress: free via clothing swap
Turtleneck: free via clothing swap
Tights: Wal-Mart, $2 (clearance)
Necklace: Plato's Closet resale, $3

Okay, time for some random stuff:

Have you guys HEARD this!?  The original song is amazing, but this version?  Gave me chills.

Today, February 27th, is Shine a Light on Slavery Day.  Check out End It Movement's website to see why people everywhere are drawing red X's on their hands.

In that same vein (kind of), I'm starting a 30x30 outfit challenge in March!  I'll give you more information about that tomorrow, including how I'm using this month to do some fundraising for Love146, another great organization shining a light on the darkness of slavery.
