This outfit took me like 12 tries to get right. You’d think after all that trouble I would have come up with something better. Nope, just this sweater, skirt, and boots, all of which I’ve worn before (see below) but never together. I actually started out with sweater 1 and skirt 1 but didn’t like them together so I switched to skirt 2 with sweater 1, then sweater 2 with skirt 2 and it just kept going on like that for a while until I got tired and thought “well, sweater 17 and skirt 12 don’t look so bad…let’s go with this.”

As the old saying goes, if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again until you come up with something at least mediocre. (In case you can’t tell, I’m totally fishing for compliments at this point. So go ahead and tell me how great I look and to stop being so modest.)

On Thursday it got above freezing, and I was so excited about the sun coming out that I wore the biggest damn sunglasses I have. And look, I even let a tiny sliver of skin show above my ankles. This is progress, people.

And on Friday…it snowed 4 more inches. Wah wah.

Hope you’re all finishing up a great weekend. Sending sunny thoughts your way.
