Years ago, I started to center my wardrobe around black, for a number of reasons:
- I’m a moody goth chick at heart,
- People can’t tell when dogs have jumped up on black clothes,
- Black never makes me look like I’m trying too hard.
Well, I am a moody goth chick at heart. Inspired by Emily’s cool video I’ve been buying yet more up alternative metal on iTunes. Don’t even ask how much I already have. (Please note: this video contains strong language.)
And owning Jimi and Skippy does lead to unspeakable dirtiniess from time to time, so black pants save me from having to change four times a day.
But this lovely new scarf (above) from The Window Sill. Sigh. I bought it a couple of weeks ago and it makes me so happy. It might encourage me to change up my wardrobe’s color scheme a little.
The Window Sill, btw, is one of Sauk Prairie’s hidden treasures. You can get the coolest things there, from Ugly Dolls to The Thymes body care products. And scarves.
Back to my scarf! It’s velvet and cozy and warm, with pink and brown stripes on the front and a brown velvet backing.
I have a yearning to buy a brown pea coat to match it, and to knit some fingerless mitts like these, only in brown.
Does anyone know where I can to get a brown peacoat?
