Poca-mustard

Howdy ladies! Today was a beautiful day, unfortunately not as cold as I would like but I think I'll stop complaining and enjoy it while it lasts. I really wanted to wear this vintage sweater-coat but as soon as I got to work I took it off anf left it in the car. The temperatures were hih in the 70's and there was no need for layers. Today one of my very low-performing students was able to do a math problem correctly and explain his answer! My eyes watered with excitement and my compliance teacher's too! (and he's a guy!). I love to see when the lightbulb in children turns on and they are able to figure out something that they had been struggling with. That was the best part of the day. =)
I finally wore my Minnetonka mocs, I love the way Ally wears hers all the time so I tried them today and I must say they were very comfy.
Outfit Details: 100 thrifted
Shirt: thrifted
Dress: Banana Republic/ shortened by me
Moccasins: Minnetonka
Belt: Gap

I love how the mustard looks with the navy - you must bring out the combination again when it gets cold enough!

I like the color of that coat a lot! I like that I can wear layers in the fall, but at times, the temperature gets weird... winter's not quite here yet!
