Saturday evening was perfect leather jacket weather, so I finally wore my new Michael Kors jacket that I got for Christmas. Yes, I said Christmas! Sometimes when I get new things I am afraid to wear them until I am certain I like them. Example A, this jacket. Be prepared to hear about my lame decision making tactics: Every day since I picked this jacket up from Nordstrom Rack I have tried it on with my outfit to "see how it looks!" Haha! Just to make sure I liked it.

Well, on Saturday, Shannon suggested this ensemble for the Winter Ball dance I was chaperoning. It is tough to know what to wear to a dance as a teacher! How nice should I look? Should I wear my school ID? Do I look like a high schooler?!?! But, thankfully, my roommate, Shannon, suggested a belted cardigan with a long skirt. So cute! I tried it on with my new jacket and BAM! a completed outfit. It also was great for walking around and shopping with Alex prior to the dance.
