Unlike yesterday's post, this is what I actually wore my first day of school. Not much to say about my first day - I thought we would only say "here!" when our names were called and then get an introduction to the course, but I was wrong. There was no introduction, we only said "here!". A woman called our names, then we were out of there. I must admit I was hoping to get started, but our first class isn't for another week!
But, I'm not going to complain - I got back in my car, drove the one hour and fifteen minutes home, where my boyfriend Ronnie was waiting! He got back from New York while I was at school, and sure, I said goodbye to him in NYC not even three weeks ago, but he has been gone for two months. It's amazing beyond words to have him back home again! And the cats are freaking out. I was afraid that they might give him the cold shoulder after being gone for so long, but I don't think I've ever seen them so thrilled. I'm almost a bit jealous! Like, what, you've only been so loving towards me because Ronnie wasn't here? And now that he's back, you're, like, done with me?! (Justkiddingbutnotreally)
Right, the outfit. Ah, I don't remember when I last felt this comfortable! I am so, so, soooo glad fall is finally here. I've never really liked summer clothes (or summer itself, for that matter - the heat, the laziness, the expectations).
Getting dressed this morning, I think I was probably going for the style of an English countryside college boy, sorry, I mean lad. But with lipstick, obviously. I must say I like it even more than my "pretend" school outfit yesterday! Mostly because it's so much more wearable. And I bit more androgynous = yes please.
Talk to you soon!
LOVE your back to school outfit!
ReplyDeleteIt really does look comfortable and awesome at the same time!
And I totally agree about disliking summer, cant wait for fall!

I'm so jealous that you have autumn! It's still humid, hot, and uncomfortable here and I'm lusting for fall like crazy.
ReplyDeleteI love the English-schoolboy inspired outfit thing, it's super adorable, and like you said, comfortable! You can never go wrong with a scarf, nice pants, boots, and a cardigan/blazer. :)

I love this. It is just pure prep, and the tailoring is very androgynous. It is so true what you say about this kind of outfit just being so comfortable and wearable, the same with autumn clothes just being comfortable and warm and cosy. Hope your next class exceeds expectations!

I think this is my favorite outfit of yours...EVER. Love it!
ReplyDeletemost awesome back to school look ever! now I wish I had worn something like this ;)
ReplyDeletemeeen ditt himla höst-snyggo!
ReplyDeleteLorena, I'M NOT TALKING TO YOU!!! YOU GUYS BEAT US IN A REALLY IMPORTANT SOCCER GAME TONIGHT! Stupid Croatians with their... muscular legs and awesome stamina and... Allright, I'll admit, I don't care one bit about sports. But my boyfriend was really upset, OK?! ;)
ReplyDeleteMaria Elyse, aaw, I feel bad for you! But at least you do have seasons where you live, right? So it's going to get better? I feel truly sorry for people who live in one of those extremely hot and humid places and who never get a chance to put on the perfect fall outfit!
Eliza dear, thank you! You're so sweet. The cats say hi!
Alexandra, thank you so much! I can't wait for the real classes to start. Now I've bought all of the literature so I can spend this week preparing, it feels so great to be learning again.
Fiona, oh wow, really? That's amazing! I actually think I might be one of my favorites, too - maybe not photo wise, but to wear, definitely.
Mariel, hahaha, it's not too late... you will go "back" to school tomorrow as well, right? ;) And THANK YOU!
Ebb o flod, amen äschdå. Durå! Stort grattis på treårsdagen (såhär lite i efterskott) och värsta finaste snel hest har du tecknat.

Great school outfit, Annika! And did you by any chance choose the title from one of the world's best songs "Lord Anthony" by Belle and Sebastian? I approve :D
ReplyDeleteAlexandra E
Nice! You look really good in a more androgynous outfit/styel. Oh, I wish WE only had to say 'here!' on our first day of school, instead they're kickstarting it right away. Xoxo/Lisa

I LOVE LOVE LOVE your outfit! It pretty much embodies my ideal back-to-school ensemble, except for the fact that when we go back to school in my area, it's far too hot and humid still to wear blazers and scarves and all things that make fall lovely :P
ReplyDeleteThis is actually THE PERFECT first day outfit. I was worried when you said you'd go in wearing jeans and a sweater, because that is not the Annika I'm used to, but this is INCREDIBLE. I need to figure out something as good for my first day. HAYULP!
ReplyDeleteCame to know of you through Zoey! She speaks highly of you and I just saw what you wrote on her latest post so I thought to myself, I need to check this girl out (and properly too).
ReplyDeleteI am in love! Your blog is beautiful! x
you have an amazing blog

Så himla skönt det känns att ha hittat tillbak till dig Annika. Tror jag tappade dig ett tag. Senast idag tänkte jag på hur personerna som skriver bloggar blir som ens vänner. Det är en fin grej. och ps, du är som vanligt den mest strålande och vackraste!
