A Stride In Stockholm

Amidst college applications and midterms, I still find time to blog. The thing is, I can't exactly compel myself to believe that this school year is coming to an end nor can I swallow in the fact that I will be in college next year. As a result, I proceed with the sketches and blogging to prove that one thing will stay the same, and that is - my hobby. I'm in the middle of a confusion of what I should pursue as a career: should it be my aforementioned hobby, or something that I can actually count on and make a living out of? What would you guys have done? This is a long-term decision and I'm trying to make it as right as possible.

Anyways, college-talk aside, I'd like to show you guys this outfit featuring a fascinating sweater I found online. I was going to purchase it but later on changed my mind and opted for a coveted black leather jacket, which should be arriving in the mail soon. That consorts another question, do you usually buy spontaneous items or garments that you've coveted for a long time? :)
