feeling gray

Is it grey, or is it gray? I like using the spelling with the "a" to describe the color, because I assume that Grey can be a name -- as in Fifty Shades...

Anyway, this outfit isn't anything special, but I'm totally into it. It reminds me of some of the more simple looks that were photographed during fashion week earlier this year, which makes me feel mega stylish.

This coat was part of last year's Black Friday purchase, along with those boots. The beanie and denim are part of this year's haul. I currently enjoy the more minimalistic approach to shopping during huge sales because in years past, I would buy in bulk but I would regret most of it. Lazy about returning items, I'd just guilt myself into using them, whether I liked them or not.

Also, the pom on this beanie was so floppy and bouncy, I felt like a little kid walking around campus. Speaking of the beanie, it's reading a little blue in these photos, but it is actually a light gray. On that note, gray is one of my favorite colors to wear -- it has the sophistication of black and the ease of white, but more comfortable to wear than both. 

Fun fact: those incredibly stylish bandages that I'm rocking as accessories for this look are protecting two very deep gashes on my fingers, courtesy of the #pharmtechlife. Paper cuts from folding people's prescription monographs are the worst...

Not sure if any of that made sense, as my brain is still scrambled from having to get back to real life after the break...

What are your favorite color(s) to wear?
