Where:
Breakfast with Jennine and Rocky, and then thrifting with Jennine
Okay, I know this is a pattern-mixing nightmare, but I kind of liked it for some reason. I was comfy, warm with my scarf and layers, and just honestly didn't care whether it looked pulled-together or not. I had a great morning, meeting up with the fabulous Jennine (of The Coveted and IFB fame) and her lovely husband Rocky for breakfast at Yolk (for those of you who are in Chicago, I would highly recommend it!). Then Jennine and I ditched the menfolk and headed to a nearby thrift store, at which we both. hit. gold. We each literally had a cart overflowing with awesome new sweaters, skirts, cardigans, and purses by the time we finally made it to the checkout. I can't wait to debut some of the amazing stuff I found (vintage Wilson's leather miniskirt, anyone??). Seriously. One of my favorites, though, is this crazy oversized cardigan. This thing is mad itchy, but unbelievably warm, so I rocked it around the apartment all afternoon with my sweet gray leggings. I'll never be cold again.

Can't wait to see what you got. Which thrift did you guys go to??
Awesome outfit!
Love the cute socks!
You are meeting everyone! Love those socks and the pattern mixing is awesome!
That t-shirt is very simple and cute. Is it some sort of Omen if bloggers go thrift shopping together the thrift gods bless them?

Love the layers!
Those socks are so fun, and I love the mix of patterns! Love!
it's really cute! i'm loving this thigh-high socks under boots thing happening everywhere... is that a david foster wallace book on your shelf? :) love.
I am a firm believer that the best sweaters are oversized, itchy and sweaty warm (but in a good way). Just like yours...
Can't wait to see your other treasures...

I agree with Diana, I neeeed those socks ASAP!! Are those from this season? I didn't see them at Target last time I went, definitely keeping an eye out for them now =)
