Twas 45º...

... AND IT WAS WARM. I KNOW. I'm JUST as shocked, haha! I struggled over wearing tights, but it was just so sunny, it felt bizarre to wear them.

Lucky me, the weather was so warm and NICE despite the mountains of snow, I was pleasantly surprised (and even considered leaving my coat at home).

This sweater is short, so I used the clever wear-it-over-a-dress tactic to prevent any belly flashes and create a whole new use out of a simple dress. I love how I could still use the dress's ribbon!

Thrifty Nifty

Alright, now I have said before that I'm currently quite addicted to thrifting...

and I was not kitten.

Introducing the Windbreaker & Leather Belt

Windbreaker: Gap

It has so many fun pockets with clips and rings for attaching life-saving items (or just whatever) adding to its utility look. I love that the color is so versatile for many outfits, and the zipped in hood is WAY cool. 

The pictures do not do the olive justice.

Leather Belt: Kenneth Cole

The color is what grabbed me initially. The silver buckle was so cute. The quality leather sold me. What more can I say, this belt is so classic!

I've already worn the jacket on several occasions, mostly to test it out. Who knew, windbreakers really live up to their name!
