Winter is Coming



















Coat, sweater: H&M; Dress: Madewell; Tights: Loft; Socks: TJ Maxx; Boots: Macys: Purse: Coach; Scarf: World Market

Yesterday it didn't get above 44 degrees and it poured the entire afternoon, filling the streets with puddles deep enough to ruin my suede heels. My cat has set up shop in front of the one heater in the apartment and he no longer minds being draped with blankets to keep him warm. And I am drinking warm cider at work again to keep from getting a chill. I think that this photo shoot represents some of the last sun we'll be getting here in Washington and I'm sad for photos, but happy that the wintry weather is setting in. It means we're closer to the holidays, my favorite time of year.

I consider this outfit my greatest feat of layering yet... and I was still freezing outside when my boyfriend kindly took these photos of me. We finished the shoot with pizza and beer at a nearby bar, and then hopped down the block to an apothecary style bar to indulge in swanky cocktails. If nothing else, the drinks and cozy company of the bars kept us warm.

  6. I love this outfit. I think cream in the fall and winter is great, I just can't ever put it together right, but this is good. I might have to copy you if I can find the right pieces!

    And I'm sorry about your suede pumps. I basically just stop wearing suede when fall arrives for fear of being caught in one of our frequent rainstorms.
