My eBay cat t-shirt (similar here) and my ye olde faux fur coat from H&M! Worn with my acid wash New Look jeans and new Sarenza* shoesies. These suede t-bar shoes from Mellow Yellow...

Workwear. 5.10.12

I can't say this was my best work, style-wise, as I've been in the Autumn adjustment phase, where suddenly getting out of bed while its dark outside feels impossible, let alone actually getting dressed/functioning.
