Weather-wise, things were both lovely and awful today.
It was lovely in that here we are, late May, and it’s only 60 degrees out. And that’s the high. I personally hate the heat, so this cooler weather is a blessing for me and my taste in layered clothing, long sleeves, and pants.
But in terms of ickiness, it was rather chilly and rainy today. I went running this afternoon; that was an adventure trying to keep my eyes open as the misty, spitty rain kept falling in my eyes. Not to mention my wet hair.
Otherwise, it was a pleasantly dull day today. I slept in, after having been out so late last night, and worked on this blog. I set up a Twitter account for L’ensemble du jour, which I highly suggest you check out. I admittedly don’t have much in terms of posts yet, but I’m sure I’ll get a hang of it soon! Social media shoudln’t be that difficult of a challenge to conquer for a Millenial like myself, right?
No news on a job yet, but that’s okay. Worst case scenario, I know places like Panera and Home Depot are always hiring, so I’m sure I could get in somewhere like that if I was desperate enough.
Which I’m not, yet. Something will come up, right?
Since my life today consisted of sitting at home on the couch and eating ramen noodles, it wasn’t a particularly fancy day in terms of fashion. I did, however, find it rather appropriate to go for my classic yellow raincoat and forest green rain boots. Now, I’m not cool enough to have actual Hunter rain boots, but I do have these nice Michael Kors ones, so I’m still trendy. Kinda, sorta?
The rest of the outfit was fairly simple – some black leggings, a printed sweater that reads C’est la vie (I’m a fan of French, can you tell?) and a sparkly J. Crew necklace to dress things up. Can’t be too casual, even on a lazy day off!
For real though, that’s it. I wish I could tell you about all my exciting adventures and all the crazy things I did today, but in truth, it was just a lazy, sit at home and watch the rain fall type of a day. It was nice.
Thanks for reading, and I’ll see you in the next one! Shout out to my dog, Juliet, for being an excellent model.

She does look sweet. Can’t wait until I get a dog. I left my two dogs in Poland with my mum and I miss them so much …

Ah, that’s too bad! Honestly, I don’t know where I’d be without my dog and I have no idea what I’ll do when I move out for college this fall

I tell you it won’t be easy. You will miss your baby :))
That’s why I am seriously thinking of getting a dog on my own now as my mum doesn’t want to give me the dogs I (and my siblings) were growing up with :)) haha but I don’t blame her for that, they’re our little treasures. 🙂

Aww! You have a doggie like mine. A Bichon, right? It rains all the time where I live; why do I not have a cute rain coat like this?

Yep! She’s a Bichon! And thank you for the compliment on the rain coat; it actually took me forever to find one in the bright yellow color I wanted. Funnily enough, I actually came across it one day at the mall when I wasn’t even shopping for a rain coat!
