When we travel to Michigan I always have to rethink my wardrobe. What’s cold to us here in the Bay Area (say the low 30s) Â is child’s play out there (where weather can dip well below zero). And I usually find myself woefully unprepared. Snow boots? Huh? What about all my cute lil shoes?? But because we didn’t have any snow this time, I didn’t have to sweat the footwear and I could even wear tights. Whooo hoo!
I found this sassy green coat at Old Navy last year and I love it. The collar is actually separate. It’s a fluffy, fuzzy, faux fur dealie I got at H&M and I love it! It kind of transforms any coat—not to mention keeps me cozy.
Oh and here’s what was under that coat….and what I wore on Christmas Eve while helpin’ with dinner.
Accessories are my favorite things….a little hairclip. A fun necklace. A sassy shoe.
Of course the best accessories are sometimes a leetle bit bigger.
Kachow!

That dress is causing much envy right now. I am crazy for polka dots and an accidental fan of the dark blue/green combo. I hate to do this, but may I point you in this direction of two posts to make my point? I promise not to do it again, unless asked. 🙂
Scroll to bottom of post for polka dots from my closet, and at the top there’s a link to my beautiful burlesque/flamenco polka dotted masterpiece I sewed half the summer:

In many of my “what I” posts I’m wearing dark blue with green of some sort:

So, any chance you wanna sell me that dress? 🙂
I LOVE that green coat – LOVE! What a fun way to brighten up drab winter.
