I've decided that cropped pants are the silliest things ever. They're basically pants that say "I want warm legs, but pffft my ankles can handle a stiff breeze." My ankles did not appreciate the fall-like weather we had this day and socks looked totally silly with my outfit, so I suffered (a bit) for fashion with chilly ankles because I thought these pants were cute. Certainly not a big deal, but it's just rather annoying that what could be a very comfortable outfit was compromised by a silly design feature. The cooler weather is exciting in the single aspect of meaning more interesting outfits can be built from layers (I've already ordered several new pairs of tights and socks even though my sock drawer is overflowing!).
P.S. This is what my hair looks like when I rag curl it, then try to comb some of the craziness out...
