Rainy Days and Mondays

Today I woke up to gloomy skies and raindrops on my window. Ahh, good weather :) I love snuggling into my warm comforter with that kind of atmosphere outside. It just feels so cozy. I guess I love it because it's reminiscent of stormy days in grade/ high school when classes got canceled and I got to sleep in. It's also my favorite kind of weather for staying in with the boyf, cuddling under a warm blanket, with takeout and a bunch of dvds that promise the best rainy-day entertainment. 

I was feeling glum yesterday, therefore dressing in all black. I don't think I can ever dress purely in neutral hues, so I stuck to accessories to add some color. The result is a very casual, boring outfit. There was a good side to it though, which I discovered later on. We had an oral presentation in my Fashion Advertising class, and we were all in black! Purely coincidental.

trying to balance my laptop ;))

There was something that lifted my spirits though.. Vogue and Teen Vogue November! I fell in love with the covers, and although I have been holding myself from buying another magazine (Vogue) until I finished my current one (Nylon), this time I just couldn't help myself. I justified my purchase by rationalizing that I needed the Vogue for examples of ads that I needed to show the class. and Teen Vogue was just a pick-me-up :)

And then I got home to find this. 

aww, and what was inside was even better...

Pasta!! my all-time favorite food! :) one of them anyway.

Spaghetti Al Funghi from Pizzaioli. yum yum yum yum! I had it with some leftover Chinese (chicken fillet) while I was tuned in to OTH. Yes, I know I have weird eating habits. But I swear, those crispy chicken strips were so good with my pasta!

I had such a good night's sleep. Thank God for cheap thrills, take home dinners, good tv shows, and one boy in particular.
