Sizzle in Winter



A lot of peeps, (myself included), LOVE to play dress-up during winter. Boots are sky high, cute pea coats abound and layering takes center stage. Winter dressing - it's a good thing.

Sub-zero temps are no excuse to throw in the towel on style! In fact, winter is the best time to experiment with funky trends and daring new looks.

Here are a few of my current favorite items which I'll be trying this winter:

Bright Fuschia Pink Dress.




Bold hues are de riguer during the colder months. I've had my eye on this beauty for a while now....le sigh...


Velvet. Preferably in the Form of This Boot.




Thank you, Thakoon, for these glorious navy blue ankle boots. Pull on a pair of leather leggings or dark skinny jeans, combine with an oversize sweater and you've got yourself quite an outfit.


Cardigan in an Eye-Catching Color.




I'll take this one from ASOS in what could be the most perfect shade of teal in the history of cardigans.


Faux-Fur Snood.




I'm all about fur this season. So when I saw this faux-fur snood online, I knew it needed to be around my neck.


Fit and Flare Dress.




This Ponte Fit and Flare dress from ASOS is perfection. I'm envisioning it with a pair of leopard print kitten heels and a cream white pea coat for a dressy Sunday look. And Vicki B. owns it.

If it's good enough for Posh, it's good enough for moi.


A couple of things before I letcha' go:

1. Maude is having a sweet little contest where they are giving away a $50 Gift Card to one FB fan. 'Like' them now and be entered to win!


2. I redesigned my About page. All. By. Myself. I'm no pro, but I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.

Be blessed, lovelies-

  1. MUST have that pink dress! So gorgeous, I think I can justify purchasing it within my budget, right?!!? RIGHT!?!?!

    I'm not 100% sure if I could wear the fauxfur, I think it looks fab on other ladies, not sure if it's my trend to follow though.

    Love the new *About Me* page, you did a fabulous job :)!

  6. That pink dress is gorgeous! I love dressing up in the winter. We don't have much snow this year either, so boots/heels are possible as well. A lot of the time I have to wear flats because we have so much ice!
