ode to winter
either i’m in mourning due to spring disappearing altogether or that i’m paying a visit to my accountant today. either way, the heavy artillery is in play today as my ootd consists of down coat, cashmere turtleneck, and boots. each item helps chase the chill away. the only consolation is that we haven’t seen any snow flurries. i feel your pain northern states ‘cuz you’re about to get slammed!
hopefully, all will go well with my visit to the accountant. but you’ll have to forgive me as this post is ever so short today. i’m still gathering all the necessary documents for 2016. wish me luck!

No color today? But you still look great! Love the otft
every once in a while i trade in color for all-black. even though i rarely wear an all-black ensemble whenever i do people always compliment me. (it’s the gray hair)

Oh boy…you better get ready for the no color thing! Happens to me all the time as what you have on is my “uniform”. Since we live in FL I do mix it up with white and sometimes keep a scarf handy to add in a little color so my friends don’t freak out. I DO love the way you look and think black is the perfect color with “our” hair color and those glasses again!-Laurel
for whatever reason, (probably the hair color) i always receive so many compliments whenever i wear black. and i wear it so seldom. maybe i should reconsider…
so happy you like the glasses because when i was in dallas recently, my left contact fell down the drain and it was my last pair. i’m waiting for my new prescription…

You look toasty in your jacket. Yep, winter returned, whether we wanted it or not. It was in the teens this morning…brrr… xoxo
OMG, donna! this weather is for the birds that’s for sure. the only consolation is that we know warmer weather will be here sooner rather than later.

This looks more like what I have to wear all winter. Living in Nebraska you get used to wearing jeans and boots all the time with a winter coat. I always admire your posts when you can wear shoes with no socks. We have snow today with 21 degrees. Good luck with your taxes!
hi sue! you do know i hail from nebraska? i’m all too familiar with their crazy weather. snow and 21 degrees is why i choose to live south of the mason/dixon line ‘cuz i don’t have to worry about socks or shoe choices. but take heart, i remember that st. patrick’s day always marked the beginning of warmer weather. now if only those tornadoes and hail storms decided not to pay a visit…

Can we sing another tune? It is so cold, windy and we have 4 inches of snow from the storm yesterday. I had to wear warm pieces to Bible study this morning so I went with a gingham check blouse, red blazer and navy ankle pants. The gingham was my nod to spring. I am so ready! You look so warm and chic in your ootd. The hand bag takes it up a notch. Love those Frye boots.
oh sharon, march is always a crazy ride weather-wise. why do i not know this by now?!
your outfit sounds adorable! love navy and red with a pinch of gingham. it sounds like my kind of outfit.
xoxo
p.s. these frye boots have to be the most comfortable pair i own.
I’m similar today, well… only in navy, with a short skirt, tights, and OTK boots and a navy puffer vest. But same warm mindset. Good luck with the TAX MAN. Sending good vibes your way.
Remember the Beatles song, Taxman? “Let me tell you how it will be / There’s one for you, nineteen for me / ‘Cause I’m the taxman, yeah, I’m the taxman…”
lol! dear lord, but i know every word to that song. and it’s true they get ALL of it. now if they would only do something with all of that moola.
your outfit sounds soooo cute! does your skirt have a pattern? what color are your boots. i need details, sue, details!
xoxo
