I'm so envious of seemingly everyone else in the world who isn't living in the midst of Winter this March 25th. I woke up this morning with an enthusiastic plan to take a nice Spring outfit photo. That's when I noticed it was a complete blizzard outside. Fortunately it cleared up this afternoon so I braved the below freezing temperature & attempted to create a Spring-esque look that was still somewhat weather appropriate (don't let the silly smile fool you; I was beyond freezing).
Bright colours were an obvious choice, pairing red with fluorescent orange (layered over a cream lace bodysuit). My House of Holland suspender tights were a clear necessity, so I chose black lace up boots & a black vintage cross-body bag to tie things together. Otherwise I accessorized fairly plainly, with a cream + gold bangle from H&M & my Chantilly Lace earrings by Stella & Dot.
I have two exams coming up this Tuesday & Wednesday so you can expect something new the second those are out of the way. Until then I'll be attaching myself wholly to my text books & language CDs... oh the excitement ;)
Hope you've all had a wonderful weekend - thank you so much for reading!
I was wearing:
Glad you survived the cold!!
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit and am always a fan of mixing sorbet orange with red. It's a powerful duo!

Wow! That neon is like "slap you in the face" bright. lol (It's an expression my niece & I use.) It stood out so much against the lovely winter backdrop. I love neon colors. I like the idea of mixing shades of the same color, including neon. Very cute!

Those stockings are AMAZING, Shawna! And the coral and the red are just dreamy together. J'adore. Hopefully you're not too cold, though! xx Tess
ReplyDeleteYou poor frozen girl! Go inside and warm up!

These pictures are gorgeous!!! I love the ice in the first picture. So neat! I never thought about how cool of a backdrop all that ice would make.
ReplyDeleteAnd the outfit you chose to wear amidst this blizzard aftermath is so contradicting and beautiful! If that makes sense. :)
This feels freezing when I see you in the photos, but the bright colors really look stunning in the ice!
ReplyDeletereally awesome suspender tights, and contrast of tones~ chic job hun!

ReplyDeleteIt's quite warm here but I love the snow and cold weather. I find it easier to dress for the cold than what I do dressing for warm weather. You look so pretty, I love the oversize tee! xx
