Snowy Days

Whenever the weather turns frigid, it never fails: people's fashion gets bleak and heavy. In other words, if a person's fashion sense doesn't reflect a dark color scheme with little to no color, then they cover themselves in layer upon layer of bulky clothing. Neither is necessary. You CAN be cute in cold weather. In fact I demand it! No excuses people. The best part about this outfit, and most of the ones I blog about is that they are easy and can be found in just about anyone's closet. And this is not like on tv when the host says its easy to put together (maybe with the help of an entire style team) and that everyone has this at home to put together (with a few hundred bucks). Granted, some of the items I gravitate towards are designer and the knock-off is going to throw the look, but dang it a girl's gotta have something to drool over! Items above, like the cable knit sweater and colorful skinny jeans are easy. Now the cape is the bit of whimsy that costs a little less than the new Vaio laptop I got a few months ago. But who amongst us don't have one or two semi-expensive pieces that we try like the dickens to work into outfits when the occasion calls for it (probably BECAUSE it was so expensive)! But i digress...long story short: staying warm does not automatically mean drab. Put a statement piece in there, brighten up your look, give the eye something to covet and ogle. Why not? Beats looking at snow, snow oh and some more even dirtier snow. And if you don't know where to start, then take a page from my look-book: you can keep it casual underneath your outerwear (so you're comfy once you get where you're going) an keep it cute and presentable for your adoring public by utilizing accessories.This way you're always dressed correct for the occasion!
