This is the view I had while waiting for the Metro this morning. A ballfield covered in fog and frozen dew looked almost purple and teal in the early morning light. Very pretty.

Today is cold, but there is no wind chill so I felt comfortable with almost-bare legs and my knee-length coat. I got to work a bit early so I could leave early this evening to have Happy Hour and then go to a friend's co-ed baby shower/cocktail party with the hubby (thank you Kim for not making me guess the melted chocolate bar in a diaper!).

Hair is second day; I brushed it out, twirled pieces around my finger and used a curling iron on big sections and finger combed afterwards.

  10. I love this outfit – must be the knee socks. I think I like them because they bring the look of a longer boot. My “knee high” boots hit just above midcalf and don’t have quite the look I long for.
