It's another #TBT with a vintage ombre-Ariel comin' atcha!

This is definitely an outfit for those warmer Fall/Winter days, which I'm seeing less and less of these days. It was a high of 39 yesterday and I was not okay with that... I feel like a good green cargo jacket is essential for the Fall, which might be why I have three of them in my closet, whoops! This jacket might just be my favorite though because it has the coolest little detail of studs on it that give it just a touch of edge! Also I'm obsessed with the combination of striped tops and cargo jackets so I'm feeling pretty good about this outfit right about now...

I now realize after looking through these pictures that I look very, very mad and unhappy in them.

I swear I'm a happy person! I think I was trying to look all serious and cool-like and obviously, it was a complete fail. How about we just stick to smiling in pics, okay Ariel? Okay.

This is seriously what happens every time I try to do the "serious model" face:

I end up looking like I wanna murder someone.

*sigh

Cheers my friends.

The thing about going through a makeover like changing the color of your hair, is the continuity in pictures. It confuses people when one moment you have red hair and next you have your ombre back. Unfortunately for me, I have a handful of outfits I never got around to posting while I still had my old hair. I figure I would post them on the blog every Thursday, starting a little Throwback Thursday series. That way I can post ombre-Ariel pictures without confusing you all. Yay! :)

I found this mustard beanie in H&M in believe it or not, the men's section! I tend to like the slouchy fit of men's beanies better--I actually like the fit of a lot of men's clothing better. I should really start wearing more clothes that are actually made for women... but then again, I like being comfy so baggy sweaters and slouchy beanies it is!

Have a lovely Thursday, friends!

Cheers.
