Recently I have planned an outfit before going to bed, only to wake up and choose to wear something else {1, 2, 3}. Well, last night I planned another outfit, and this morning -- brace yourself -- I actually wore it! {Truth be told I planned this outfit months ago, but have been putting off wearing it for one reason or another. Are you guilty of outfit procrastination?}

I almost didn't wear this outfit after seeing this morning that the forecast called for high 60s. However, it was 6:30am, and I had no energy to change my outfit. Perhaps this is telling; I have been changing my outfit choices in the mornings because I have had time and energy to do so. Although I am not a morning person by any means, and I enjoy how flexible my schedule is (some days I don't have to be on campus until 2:30pm), I did enjoy that there was absolutely no second-guessing involved today.
This outfit was inspired by Bri from Work Clothes, I Suppose. {See her version here.}
