These photos were taken a few weeks ago during a relatively sunny day (still around zero of course). There is a rather lovely park maybe 20 mins from where I live with a pond and some trees. I think the trail that goes around the pond can be walked in around an hour, but it…
Snow on the Menu: White Jeans, Metallic Top, Faux Fur Jacket, Legwarmers and Boots
It happened to snow on the day I was taking photos which is why they turned out rather dark (and I’m also kind of frozen in them since it was a surprise snow storm). Yes, it snows through March here and according to weather forecasts, snow is on the menu for us into mid April….
Not Melting: Cobalt Blue Cropped Sweater, Leather Pencil Skirt, Faux Fur Jacket and Tall Boots
I’m not someone who wears a lot of pencil skirts. They are super flattering and elegant, but something about them just isn’t really me unless they have an edge. A perfect example is the skirt you see here. It’s a pencil skirt with the standard shape, but it’s faux leather which toughens it up substantially…
Waking from Winter: White Jeans, Burgundy Sweater and Over-the-Knee Boots with Tan Faux Fur Jacket
The weather gets ever lovelier although the trees and grass are all still brown and sleeping from the winter. The days are still darker and more somber than the summer sun will bring, but they are lovely nonetheless. I confess, I hadn’t spent much time outside lately; especially during the day. Being able to see…
Fire: Fire Polish and White Floral Lace Nails
It’s been a while since my last post or longer than I’d like at least…I’ve actually been in bed since Friday night until today, having caught a nasty flu that’s been floating around here lately. It wasn’t my best week. I couldn’t even eat anything for the first three days. For those of you who…
Roses and Hearts: Red Roses and Black Hearts Lace Nails
If this manicure looks familiar, it’s because it is and I actually created a similar look here. What can I say? I loved the look so much that I decided to use the rest of my red rose decals with some heart themed lace and a glittery red polish. The type of lace and the…
White and Velvet: White Jeans, Violet Sweater, Floral Scarf and Purple Velvet Over-the-Knee Boots
Here are the white jeans again and the velvet over-the-knee boots I absolutely love (last worn here and here). I’m actually still surprised by how often I manage to wear them. I never realized purple was such a versatile color. I suppose it helps that they’re a grayed out purple though, which makes them a bit…
White and Grey: White Jeans, Crystal Earrings, Grey Leaf Sweater and Over-the-Knee Boots
I love the crispness of true bight white whether on top or bottom or as a monochromatic look. White goes with everything (just like black) and makes any color really pop against it. This is especially interesting for a neutral like grey that would look a lot more understated with any other color. I like…
Electric: Winter Electric Blue Nails with Silver Leaves
So I moved a few months back and unpacking has its benefits like rediscovering items that have been sitting in the back of the closet or drawer for a while (a bit like seasonal clean outs). The electric blue polish was just such a discovery. I love the brightness and intensity of the color and…
Colorful Stripes: Multicolored Stripes Sweater, Burgundy Leather Leggings, Black Scarf, Belt and Boots
I’ve always loved this sweater. The multicolored stripes are so fun to style and I love to pick up the different colors of the stripes in the rest of my outfit. This time it was the red echoed in the burgundy faux leather leggings and the black in the belt (which also also serves to…
