borrowed a whole lot of

My biggest fashion advice or tip is stealing aka "borrowing" clothes from my mother and sister. The best thing about the ladies in your life - they all have great fashion too.

This lovely jacket is my mother's. My mom has always had a great eye for style. Her color has always been and will always be black. She, unlike me, can pull of the "street ninja." Black on black on black.

These pants, well, I stole them from my sister a long time ago. She still hasn't noticed I have them, so I guess that's fair game and I can call them mine. Right?

Also - these are "fancy" sweatpants. They are widely expected as fashionable because they are cuffed. Yes, cuffed. (Or that's at least what someone else told me. Who I do trust!)

I feel like it's so easy to feel lost in this day and age of technology. The internet is such a big massive strange world. But it's funny how blogging can sometimes make you feel as though you are part of something. I know I don't have a million viewers or readers but it means the world to me for those who do follow my blog and my fashion journey. (Thanks!)

Recently I haven't really felt inspired. I've been in and out for last couple of days which is very frustrating. I am becoming lazy and letting the cold fall consume me instead of using it to my advantage.

I've always said October is a magical month for me. It's my birthday and always been good to me. I also think October has the most beautiful skies. So I am going to go for a walk, taking my camera and my notebook. Hopefully that will bring up my spirits and get my creative juices flowing.

Maybe tomorrow I'll even go on a little trip...

This goofy little black cardigan with a built in scarf is my mother's. I've been shopping her closet because she has great style and I get my sewing genes from her.
