I really thought I was smiling (convincingly) in these photos. Alas, my disdain for icy cold rain reads pretty clearly on my face. But with how hideously frigid it’s been the past week, I wish I could go back to cold rain. Sounds splendid.

On the bright side, I discovered this sweater looks a little more flattering with a vest (see it sans layers here).

Anywho, I hope you’re all staying warm and cozy while waiting in long lines at the Post Office. Happy almost Christmas!

Any fellow gladiators out there? I’m counting down the days til Season 6 of Scandal! Remember the season when Kerry Washington was pregnant in real life, so Olivia Pope was suddenly really into ponchos? One time she took off her poncho to reveal…another poncho. That show was ahead of its time (poncho-wise) because now it seems the one-size wearable blankets are everywhere! I got this one for 15 bucks on Black Friday in New York and it’s super cozy. I’m thinking I’ll leave the doubling up to Olivia Pope though. Call me a traditionalist, but I’m more of a one-poncho-at-a-time kind of girl.
