layer in sweats

Jacket: Forever 21. Flared jeans: 18th Amendment. Scarf: London. Bag: <--- you all know it by now
Even though it's still chilly in New York, I have to say, this Forever 21 jacket isn't that bad. I layered a hoodie under it that I got from a west coast trip and I live in it. Indoors and out.
Actually, I love any kind of grey gym clothes (like these American Apparel jogging pants). All winter I've been layering gym stuff outdoors under all sorts plus wearing them indoors with my feet up while watching stuff like 24 (love Jack) with a cuppa. ps. Anyone else think the story line with that blonde being black mailed by her ex is so lame??
pps. Big thank you for your comments below on the 1 year blog anniversary.
No hang on: Blogversary? Brilliant.

    Congrats on a year. I only hope to be as successful in that time.

    And I have no idea what you're talking about with the news thing...

  6. YES i agree with the 24 comment. that blonde is so annoying. it feels like something out of the 90210 or the OC. i swear that storyline better tie in really well.

  8. I hate the ex-boyfriend storyline. I don't understand why we're supposed to believe that CTU didn't uncover her past in the surely extensive and detailed background check and screening process. I guess since Kim's not really around they needed someone else to do something dumb.

  60. Maintain your sweatpants with the same level of care that you would any other garment in your wardrobe. Since sweatpants are such a casual item of clothing, it is easy for them to look sloppy faster than other wardrobe staples.

  71. A sweat pore is a small opening on the skin, and serves as the passage for fluid from the duct of a sweat gland to the top layer, or dermis. There are millions of these pores all over the body from which sweat is secreted. They allow sweat to leave the skin and evaporate, allowing it to cool off the body by evaporation when someone is outside in the heat or exercising

  74. I precisely needed to thank you so much once again. I am not sure the things that I could possibly have implemented in the absence of the smart ideas shown by you regarding such industry. I am just grateful for this support and in addition pray you know what a powerful job you're carrying out teaching other individuals all through a blog. More than likely you haven't got to know all of us.
