A fitting Picture Perfect Challenge for a post-and-run day: the crossing-the-street Abbey Road photo! It's my day off, so I wore this to get my hair cut, and now I'm hoping to rest up for a busy holiday season.
Inspiration came from the overall colors of the photo. If I had been at work, I might have gone for a suit look with flared pants, but that was not in the cards for today's activities. I chose my faded black wash skinnies for the asphalt, army green jacket and sneaks for the trees, and Precious for the crosswalk stripes. I would have liked to throw in some light blue, but nothing I have worked well.
Bonus hair pics - we went a little more razored and wispy with the ends this time. There's too much wax in it right now, but I like it a lot overall. In other news, recording my last trim on YLF came in handy today when I pulled up the post to reference for today's cut. A picture is worth 1,000 words, and YLF officially improves every aspect of life involving style!

I'm just your average working stiff who loves nice things and hates to pay for them. This blog outlines my efforts to navigate that treacherous shopping/saving divide through swappin', thriftin', and even a little resellin'. Many of the pieces in my wardrobe cost me just $1! We've heard a lot about people "living above their means" in recent years; I'm championing the concept of living large *below* your means - whatever that means for you. :)
