how to: survive a polar vortex

How to Survive a Polar Vortex

Apparently, I never knew what a real winter felt like until now: the year of the polar vortex.  Last year, it snowed only three times over the course of several months.  This year, it snowed three times in a matter of days.  Let’s just say, my dog (who is also experiencing his first real winter) is not pleased.

While I still refuse to buy a puffer jacket, you’ll probably find me decked out in all other winter gear, trying to hold on for dear life until spring.  My winter uniform usually involves a chunky knit sweater and faux leather leggings (underneath of which there’s another layer of thermal wear).  I also prefer schlepping around the city with a crossbody bag so that I can keep my glove-covered hands properly shoved into my wool coat. So tell me, how are you surviving this year’s winter?  I’d love to know — unless you live in California or Arizona, in which case we’re not currently on speaking terms.

party plumage

Feather & Fringe Skirt

I can’t believe we’re nearly one week into 2014.  Last week, I rang in the new year in this little fringe number.  It was my last, but perhaps favorite purchase of 2013.  I had been looking for an affordable feathered skirt for ages, and while this one isn’t made of actual plumage, the omrebe fringe is like a light replica.  It’s now nesting happily in my wardrobe and I can’t wait to hatch up another outfit with it!Feather & Fringe Skirt Sequin Embellished Shoulder NYE Party Outfit Lace Clutch & Feather Fringe Skirt Lace Clutch & Feather Fringe Skirt
