I’m finally coming to peace with blogging in the winter in the Midwest. I used to torture myself taking tripod photos on the way to work in the morning when it was 20 degrees (or less). I used to stress about changing my schedule to make up for the limited daylight. I used to write down every detail of what I wore on days I couldn’t take photos, and then recreate on the weekend and bribe Kristin to go out in the cold. NO MORE, friends. This is Sarah’s Real Life, and Sarah is busy and doesn’t like frostbite. Instead, I’ve been using Instagram to capture my favorite bits and pieces of my favorite outfits when doing a full shoot just isn’t in the cards.

Now that the 90s are back in style, I figure I can layer thin shirts under spaghetti strap tops and dresses. Don’t try to argue with me.

Remember my “once a year” tee? When I was in New York over Thanksgiving, I went to Club Monaco on Black Friday and discovered they still make the same style in that almost-falling-apart-it’s-so-soft fabric, so I bought two more! Now I can wear my favorite tee 3 times a year 🙂

Here’s to  few more weeks of staying warm whenever I can!

(Editor’s note: I went back and read the old post I linked to about the t-shirt, and in that old post I make reference to “when Hillary’s president.” Insert 1,000 crying emoji here.)

Leather & Boucle

When: last Friday // Weather: chilly // Real life: work

I feel like these boots are borderline tacky depending on what I wear them with. Leopard print is funny that way. I’m keeping an eye out for a new pair of leopard booties maybe with a sleeker shape or a darker color (like these or these). so I can wear them more often. But for now, I’ll keep the ones I have, because obviously a girl can’t survive without leopard ankle boots, even borderline tacky ones.
