Brought to you by the letter C for comfort

My outfit was more or less chosen on it's ability to be comfortable and yet still look nice enough for work.  The head cold marches on, though today it's much less foggy than it was yesterday.  I got good sleep last night too thank goodness, so knock on wood, I think things are improving.


This sweater is another thrifted find from my thrifting adventure on the day after Christmas.  I gotta say, the new Goodwill that's opened by me is quite fantastic, though it may be partially due to it's newness, I found the most items there that day!  This is an H&M sweater which has quickly become my favorite new mall store.  In fact, the t-shirt I have on came from H&M new.


Even though I have a head cold, I keep telling myself it could be worse.  My friend's daughter has Influenza B.  It's out there folks - even if you got the flu shot.  So public service announcement from someone who kind of works in healthcare - wash your hands!  Wash your hands and drink lots of water and get lots of rest.  Those are the best things you can do to stay healthy!

And because I'm still so proud of my find, I had to include my purse today, because I thought you all might like to ogle it again.  It's my current favorite thing ever.

Sweater - H&M thrifted
T-shirt - H&M new
Pants - Maurices (old)
Necklace - S&D

Shoes - Mossimo, thrifted

  12. Very "Mori-girl" today! I love the soft browns and the draped cardigan. I love all my H&M stuff. We don't have one in state so all mine has come from thrifted stuff.

  13. Also I'm sorry to hear about the illness - I still think about having H1N1 and how it made me want to die for about a week. Knock on wood! I don't want to be sick.

  19. Hi Beth. I am Ada & I just found your blog & I have been checking it out. I left you a few comments. Happy New Year 2013!!

    Feel Better. Winter is awful when it comes to flus & such. But you do look cute. Love the warm taupe color of that cardigan & top. And what an awesome Coach Purse. I have a tiny version of that purse, like a mini Hobo. =)

    Please stop by my blog & follow me as well. I appreciate it. =)
