OOTD: Monday & Saturday

This past Monday, I decided to visit the nearest Gabriel Brothers to my new residence in Cleveland. The Gabe's in Kent was one of my favorite places to shop- besides being one of the few places to buy clothing in Kent that was within walking distance/on a bus line- and I've missed shopping there very much. I was a little skeptical if this one could be as good, but dare I say, it may have even been better! Afterwards, I went out to the mall to return some things to Forever 21 and hang out with Jon, Jordan and Eric. And the following is what I wore! Please excuse the poor lighting and my absence of a head:

Skirt: Forever 21
Black Scoop Neck Tee: H&M
Cardigan: Thrifted
Pearl and Lace Necklace: Candie's
Other Beaded Necklace: Clothing Swap
Sweater Tights: Kohl's
Headband, Combat Boots, and Black Knitted Knee Socks: Gabriel Brothers

You can't really tell in the photos, but I had black knitted knee socks layered over my sweater tights. This combo, along with my combat boots (which are Hot Kiss brand, only $15!), has become a staple for me this fall. I feel very 90s grunge in it. Cute and warm!

Today, I had to work 3-11 at the bar. It was very warm for late November in Ohio, and it put me in the mood to wear a dress, even if I would be stuck indoors for most of the day. I decided to bust out this thrift store gem that I've not worn since I let Jon borrow it for our Bikini Kill cover show last Halloween:

Jon and I last Halloween, pre-coupledom.

Obviously, he wore my dress rather well, and I think I've been intimidated to try it since! Not to mention it's a little bit big on me. I decided to go with a black and white theme, and I think it turned out well. My one boss made sure to tell me how good I looked so that must be a sign that I did something right, right?:

Dress: Village Discount Outlet
Cardigan: Thrifted
