my outfit: black is always in!

Isn't that the truth though, that black is always in? I love wearing black... it soothes my soul, like that is my deepest happiness or something. I feel good in my skin in black. Unfortunately for bloggers, black is also hard to photograph. But heck with it. I don't care.


It must be the change in season that has me running for it again... usually I wear it all year long, but this summer I surprisingly didn't wear it much, but now I have for my last couple of outfits! This sweater is the one item in my closet I hope to have forever. I bought it years ago on super discount from Banana... I remember it was like $100 off or something. It's very high quality and fits perfect. I love the big cozy turtleneck and wide arms, but slim fit. I wash it once a year on the hand wash cycle and sweater shave it as needed. Otherwise I just wear it over and over and over again.


Kendi is hosting another 30/30 Challenge... (check my archives HERE for my last go-round) - I am seriously debating participating. Having been so sick lately my whole world is upside down... buuuuuut if you guys really sweet talked me, maybe I could. Oh, and don't tell my husband. He knows it will get me all crazy and would say no... but, between you and me... I'll only go a little crazy - not too much.


The other problem is that I am seriously craving some new clothes... and if I did the challenge I wouldn't be able to buy any - that's the deal. :( But also, I really shouldn't spend money on clothes now anyway with the holidays and what not coming up. So maybe that is a reason I should do the challenge. See how I just talk out of both sides of my mouth like that?


Also, a super sweet little blondie joined me for today's photo. What a doll. I 'made' her be a housewife for Halloween. It was a little sarcastic on my part... of course. You know me, I don't really buy into the whole housewife-thing. But was she the cutest ever or what???
