Endnotes:
This past weekend my parents and my youngest sister where in town to celebrate my birthday early. On Thursday night, I took them to an LGBT graduate student happy hour I helped organize.
I wore my new skinny jeans that I love and this fabulous 3/4 sleeve jacket, which my mom bought for me over the summer, and which I have been dying to wear but waiting for the weather to cooperate. I layered the jacket over a black v-neck sweater and that over a grey tank and finally finished it off with the bright pop of blue in the scarf. I also premiered my new haircut!
Scarf and Jacket, originally uploaded by academichic.Little sister, L. wore a somewhat similar ensemble of skinny jeans, grey tee, and colorful scarf. As I’ve bragged before, L. has a great sense of style! With a significant age difference and being in rather different places in our lives, we have pretty different styles, but among other things we do share a great love of scarves and an even greater love of layers!
L.’s simple outfit of jeans and a T-shirt is made special in the details – the sippers at the bottoms of her jeans, the grey (rather than black) Chucks, the beautiful scarf, and the fact that said T-shirt is a tribute to Prince!

Your family is adorable! And the haircut looks great. Sounds like a fun weekend.
You girls are adorable! I love how you both showed different ways to wear your scarves, very cute.
All three of you are too cute for words! And as a Minneapolis resident, I am all in favor of your sister’s tee.
Your family is so cute!
I also bought that jacket over the summer, and have been happily wearing it for a few weeks. I even included it as my jacket in the Wardrobe Capsule Challenge! I admire your style so much and am absolutely delighted that I own something you own. :)
Lovely outfits. Love the blue with grey. And I love A’s sister’s scarf.
