My tiny bespectacled friend...

Saturday was an unbelievable day in Leipzig, weather-wise. High around 65°F, sunny, with a warm breeze. It was incredible. I decided against taking in a museum, which had been my plan, and headed out to Plagwitz for a solo photo-mission. This is what I wore. 

Black knitted beret, oversized royal blue sweater, black leggings; H&M (Here in Germany, it's pretty much the only place I can afford to shop.)

Navy blazer; Thrifted

Scarf; Thrifted

Amazing gold leopard necklace; gift from Mama Dirty of Sweet 'n' Dirty 

Einkaufstasche (shopping bag): Do You Read Me, a bookstore in Berlin.

Bought these camel colored riding pants at H&M yesterday, for only 9€! Not bad. Bought loads of other stuff as well but mostly just comfy, cozy things for sleeping.

Today's look is kind of half equestrian, half military... with a dash of Burberry thrown in for good measure. 

Listening to: White Rabbits, Fort Nightly

I'm calling this the "Oscar Wilde," due to the old-fashioned foppy, floppy wide-brimmed top hat, ostrich feather, cameo ring, spectator shoes and somewhat nouveau print on the (Kate donated) tunic. 

The outfit does, however, lose some of its "Wildeness" (if you will) when I am not carrying an old fashioned black umbrella as a jaunty cane, as I was when walking Elmwood Avenue today.

Listening to: The Black Keys

Heading to the flower market... I know I just wore this yellow jacket and posted about it, but it's really kind of perfect for this weather, which is cloudy and cool. It's a very lightweight wool, so it keeps me warm enough, but the bright sunny color is very apropos for spring.
