Day 23: Opening Night

Hey guys! This outfit is also in the top five of the challenge looks. I wore this to opening night of a play my mom is producing, so I needed to look a little fancier. This is the type of situation where you really feel limited by your 30 pieces, but I picked one of my two dresses and accessorized. The long boyfriend sweater added warmth and gave the outfit a relaxed, artsy look for the occasion. (the play is mainly folk music and it's in this tiny theater) My mom picked up this cool pair of tights, but of course I ripped them at Christmas dinner. Stupid jagged nail sticking out of the table! Anyways, for the one night they lasted, they made the look more visually interesting. I'm not sure if the stripes are supposed to twist around your legs or if my legs are just abnormal. Ahh life's unanswerable questions...

Oh! I also finally found a hairstyle that I like and I'm capable of doing. Like all good innovations, it happened on accident. The day before I curled my hair in rollers overnight (the only way the curls stick) but it turned out WAY too crazy. I pulled it into a ponytail and went to bed like that. The next day my hair was perfectly wavy on top and still had curls at the bottom. I describe this hairstyle as "The Samantha," as in the American Girl Doll from the turn of the century.
