Yesterday I was fully dressed and ready to go in this fab outfit and at the last minute school was cancelled. No, I’m not completely insane. I didn’t go outside in a major snowstorm to take outfit photos. I actually took these Saturday before the storm. Smart girl. Word on the street is there’s another storm coming this weekend. Can I just express my excitement ahead of time? Hey, here’s some good news…45 days until Spring! 45 days doesn’t sound so bad does it? I’m pretty sure I can make it that long. Until then, I’ll dream of wearing skirts with no tights (tights are the devil) and shoes with no socks and being able to leave the house without bundling up in ten layers and starting the car an hour before I leave. Yes…better days are coming.
I have out of nowhere developed this strange and unexpected love for leggings. I’ve never been a fan. Probably because sooo…many people seem to think they are pants which they’re not. Honestly, I don’t need to see your girl parts. I’ve got my own thank you very much. In any case, I’ve been wearing them under dresses and skirts and have started collecting tops that are long enough to cover my butt. Maybe it’s because I’ve acquired a couple of pairs that are fleece lined and they are like little electric blankets for your legs. Maybe my brain’s starting to short out with age…who knows. All I can tell you is you’ll be seeing a lot more leggings around here; but don’t worry, my girly bits will be safely under wraps.
I purchased this gorgeous lace tunic from Viva la Jewels last month. It’s so pretty and soft that I want to wear it all of the time. It’s also light enough to wear into the Spring, but that makes it perfect for layering now which I did with my open front cardigan. I’ve had this cardi for well over a year, but for some reason I don’t think it’s ever made la blog before this. The tunic meets the butt/girly bits covering criteria so I wore my new blue leggings underneath. The leg warmers inside the boots were pure functionality…it’s freakin’ cold outside!
