Today I am: Spent.

In the office, I have this little daily mood flip chart that sits right on the top of my desk. Most days I flip it to something happy (i.e. chipper, giddy, inspired etc.), but today? I was and still am SPENT. Having 10 hour days at school until 9:30pm and going to work at 8am the next morning is exhausting. Not a good type of tired either, the kind where you wake up and go "maybe I'll skip class... and sleep... and... never mind, I'm already half way awake anyway."

Look at that wrinkled skirt. I knew it desperately needed an ironing, but did I care? NOPE. I couldn't even be bothered to change into another wrinkle-free skirt. So I spent the day in a very wrinkly skirt, and did it bother me? NOPE.

Sometimes, it feels nice to not care about that wrinkly skirt, or the odd kink in my hair. I'm going to look back at this post and go "why didn't I iron the skirt and fix my hair?", but for now, ignorance is bliss.

  1. I definitely know the feeling of being spent. And I definitely wouldn't care about a wrinkly skirt. The only thing I would try do would be to use my straightener to iron it as I do my hair. Because that is the life of a student.

    But even though you are exhausted, you look lovely and classy.

  2. Nice outfit! I certainly don't mind the wrinkled skirt. As for being tired, I think every one is, including myself. My enthusiasm for school has withered away and I'm like a zombie in class.

  3. See, I was about to comment on how much I love that cool-textured-skirt you have! All about perspective I think. :] Besides, I still have no idea how to iron anything...should probably learn I suppose. Sorry you're feeling so spent! Maybe the post-midterm mania will help you calm down a little. :]

  4. I definitely know how you feel at the moment, 9-5 working an internship plus a hectic retail Saturday job and I'm so ready to just sleep and relax on a Sunday. That being said sometimes you can pull out your best looks when you're tired and don't try so hard to make an effort! Love this look personally, especially the necklace and blazer...I didn't even notice the shirt was wrinkled! xoxo

  8. Love the elbow pads on your blazer! Your necklace is too cute! I can definitely relate with the lack of time in my schedule. We need more hours in a day!

  9. Wrinkles are the new trend this season, didn't you get the memo? ;)

    If I had a mood chart it would be so bipolar and probably just flipped to "Exhausted" all the time. I hope you got plenty of time to relax this weekend though! Also, your nail polish? It's pretty damn amazing. Now I'm craving some navy blue polish.

  17. Hey Jess,
    That's such a sweet outfit, and love the colour of your polish too.
    Your hair is also just perfect the way it is. :)

  18. You know sometimes Ironing can be a real chore in the morning! So don't worry about it because I feel the same way ;)

  19. There's been a lot of instances where I wore a skirt, took some blog pictures, and then realized that it's very wrinkly! X-( Been there done that, hahaha... Love the elbow patches on your blazer, btw. You look very librarian chic ;)
