What happens when you procrastinate taking outfit photos on a three-day weekend?

Skirt The Rules / Grey Long Sleeve Dress

You end up having to take your photos while it’s snowing. Not particularly ideal when I was planning to wear a sleeveless dress, so I opted for this long sleeve tunic layered under a burgundy vest instead. To say it was cold this past weekend is an understatement. I’m talking -9°F wind chills on Saturday and Sunday and toes so frozen that I’m pretty sure it was the first signs of frostbite. So when it returned to a “tolerable” 20°F on Monday, a little snow in my hair was not going to stop me. As much as I love a good sweater dress (seen here, here and here), I’m ready to retire them until next year. Spring, where you at?

  8. The fact that you took these photos over this past weekend is impressive, I was going to shoot a dress and just couldn’t do it, too cold! Love this dress though and a great price!

    Already this grey dress is sheer perfection but I’m absolutely loving the deep purple vest you have over it. Really ties up your look and you make it look super original!
