What I wore Sunday: plaid + burgundy

Sunday, February 3, 2013



I'm feeling a little off this Sunday; maybe because of the mountain of work that somehow piled up over the last four weeks of my pediatric rotation (it's been a fun weekend) or because I picked up some extra hours in the ER yesterday that my med school set up for me to try to help me decide between ER and OB-GYN as a specialty (starting to feel a little pressured).

Anyways, joining up with Fine Linen and Purple for another What I Wore Sunday and again with this lovely blog. I was feeling plaid today and sort of accidentally discovered that the blues, pinks, and greens in this shirt complemented these burgundy cords. And I'm really excited about these new-ish leather boots (first leather pair ev-ah) from ebay (thoroughly snow-proofed of course).

Happy superbowl Sunday, I'll be studying and maybe watching a few commercials in-between (I've never understood football and Stephen is working).


Plaid and open cardi: J. Crew Factory
Burgundy cords: J. Crew
Boots: Madewell

My lovely sister came over to take pictures since Stephen is working, and she totally posed this one. I felt a little silly when she took it, but was kind of impressed when I looked at it. Maybe she missed her calling as a photographer?

    The burgundy with the colorful plaid is so fantastic, I can hardly stand it.

      Thanks, Lee!! I just love bright colors, but thought maybe I needed the cardi to tone things down just a tad (and to attempt to keep somewhat warm).

      Thank you! I really want to wear these boots every day; I'm way too excited that they are real leather (trying to resist wearing them very often until the snow melts though, haha).

    You'll be great whichever you choose! Emergency Med vs OBGYN you'll make an impact ----- and still be able to continue volunteering in Haiti :)

      Thank you!! I appreciate it. I must say that I love OB-GYN with all my heart, but am intimidated by the ethical issues (and the rarity of NFP OB-GYNs) along with the call/hours...I've got to pray about it...

    Great outfit! I think you're right, we might be style soulmates haha. We definitely own a lot of the same clothes!

    Love the whole look!
