Daily Threads: Wolfpack Red

{Tee&Skirt: F21 | Belt: thrifted | Scarf: gifted | Tights: Target | Boots: Steve Madden}

Today was not a great picture-taking day. Not due to rain or snow or freezing temperature, but because my belt was crooked in most of the shots, the camera was focused on the trees rather than me, and my scarf was misbehaving. Now that that is over...

I wore red today in lieu of my Wolfpack football team coming out with a huge win in the Champs Sports Bowl over West Virginia. I was {shamefully} doubtful going into the game. WV is #22 and we aren't even ranked, but we came out on top, and by a large margin might I add (23-7)! Not all of you, in fact, very few of you share my love of NC State football, so I'll keep this paragraph to a minimum. I just have to say I am so extremely happy and excited for those boys! Go Pack!

Today I continued cleaning around the house - washing clothes, unpacking, and getting ready for another weekend of traveling. We are {hopefully} leaving for Savannah tomorrow when Chris gets off work. I plan on rising early to finish up some cleaning (it. never. ends.) and then pack up our bag. I hope to make some tasty treats to take with us as well. We are going to spend the weekend with Chris's parents, his brother and wife, and his sister, have our Christmas together, and bring in 2011. I'm super excited to see everyone!

  5. I like how you tied the scarf and the skirt together. I love red skirts pencil skirts. Ever since I got one at a thrift store I've seen them all over blogs with such great ideas for styling it.

  7. I love how your showing some Wolfpack pride in a really stylish and fun way! I actually watched some of the game but I was more focused on watching my UK Wildcats dominate on the basketball court. Hey - we may love sports, but I at least we support our times fashionably.

  8. Ooh! I wore a very similar skirt just the other day. It looks great on you- I think red skirts surprise people because you don't see them very often. Nice work :)
