the shadowlands

 (spent a very long time at a laundromat today, convinced me at I need to purchase a washer and dryer for home.) 

(eeep! just noticed a stain on my dress. well, at least this shows how much I "live" in my clothing. I am not afraid of getting things dirty.) 

(tower of books at Prosperos.) 

(rain coat/dress/collared shirt/hat/loafers: thrifted, belt: from a friend, tights: h&m.)

   I am in complete confidence that weather 100% controls ones mood. The rain and the lack of sunshine allowed me to sleep late, but in return, never allowing me to get out of bed. I guess that is a perk of being on break, not so much feelings as if I "have" to do lots of things on one of my only free days. 

   Mostly, this Saturday, I spent lounging around my home reading, watching The Tudors on netflix (I am quite obsessed?), and cleaning some. I later ventured out to grab a latte for some warm, to Prosperos Books, and do much needed laundry.  The only thing that was exciting about my day was being able to wear my beloved raincoat. I got this from a friend whom worked at Goodwill, and at the time that was a huge perk. My favorite part is the inside of the jacket, which is all filled with pretty flowers and colors. So much of Spring is happening with this coat.
