Salting around

Last night I was salting* around the Internet and I found this little gem of a website, and it told me to wear all black today. Take the quiz and find out what you'll wear tomorrow.
So then I did it, I wore mostly black with some brown tights to break it up. Too bad I didn't have anything to match the wisteria in the backyard. Maybe tomorrow...
*Salting: (verb) To project your general malaise and crankiness (salt) on something or someone. In this case on the Internet. By typing in generally salty phrases into Google searches, I can unleash my annoyance upon the Internet sparing my loved ones my emotional flavor. Usually this leads me to websites that look like they sprang to life during the days of GeoCities that make me giggle. Which is really the point: to feel better.
vintage dress, blouse and locket, AA tights, target flats

    You look cute with the little top underneath! The website seemed to spontaneously combust and never actually told me what to wear, which is a bit annoying as I could seriously use some help!

    Love the blouse underneath your dress! And in answer to your question, my page from my Moleskine was both watercolour and tea x

    This is just so cute! I love the lace that just kind of pokes out from underneath the black!

    Salting in the internet seems like a good way to be moody and don't annoy anyone around you!
    Well I'm glad you took the advice, because this black outfit is great with the pretty blouse and locket!

    Ohh my god I used to do quizzes on select smart all the time when I was in high school. I love how it still exists! Also, thank you for expanding my vocabulary, and for bringing up geocities.

    Oh and you look super cute. That blouse is my favorite. The collar is as perfect as can be.

    Gorgeous, I love the concept of letting the fashion gods decide what you are going to wear. I am definitely going to check out the site.

    Girl I am loving this look. Nothing is more comfortable than a jersey dress. I had one last year that I made from the thrift store and it was amazing.
