Our weather has been so up and down lately. One minute it feels like Spring, the next day it’s snowing. Not that I mind, but it leads to a bit of chaos in outfit coordination. So I’ve opted for layering to keep up with the weather madness.

Here I’m wearing a button front dress with a wool jacket, blanket scarf, and over the knee boots, because it turned out to be a bit more cold than expected. On a warmer day this same dress could easily have been worn with a shorter jacket and booties, sans the blanket scarf.

Hope you had a fab weekend!

Totally loving the whole incorporating lingerie-style pieces into your wardrobe. I am really looking forward to Spring to play around a little bit more with this trend. The ‘wear your lingerie outside’ theme was all over the SS16 runways and is starting to creep into shops (check out the Nasty Gal x Courtney Love collabo here). While I’m not wearing my skivvies out per se (due to weather limitations) I did play around with boudoir style lace detailed stockings. True fact, I usually dress like this around the house, so bonus for not having to change to go outside. Only thing is I swapped over the knee socks for lace detailing nylons with OTK boots.

 Jeans, Beanie, Zara. Sweater dress, overcoat, old. Booties, Dollhouse. Purse, Rebecca Minkoff.

Sweater dresses have become my new favourite article of clothing this season. Around the house I wear them with over the knee socks and for outside I tend to layer them over leggings or jeans with riding boots, or booties. As such wearing a dress over jeans has become my new stylish way of keeping warm in winter. Stay warm my friends!
