There was this thing I used to do where I walked outside and enjoyed nature. It was nice. I was thinking recently about how much I missed that, but I found a good cold-weather option! There’s a conservatory/greenhouse at a park just south of downtown (Garfield Park, for my Indy people), so we went for the first time over the weekend. Technically, it was Valentine’s Day. Cute, right? We bundled up in 10 layers so we could survive the walk from the car to the balmy, tropical paradise.

Anyway, I thought I should explain where these photos were taken. Otherwise you might wonder if I had gone on vacation and not checked the forecast before I packed.

Stay warm, friends and frenemies! And in case you missed it, be sure to enter the Mint Julep Boutique giveaway!

Bye, Winter. It’s Been Real.

It is officially the last day of winter! I think I speak for all of us when I say: Good riddance. But I must admit, I did cozy up to some great outfits during these past few months. Just for kicks, I decided to choose my top 10 favorites to share today. I hope you brought your snow boots, because we’re taking a walk down Memory Lane.

Fur and plaid: a combo I saw on Pinterest and couldn’t wait to try // Being a ballerina at Barristers’ Ball // Something about this outfit gave me a whole new appreciation for last year’s coat

Wore this to see the Christmas tree lighting downtown // It was incredibly frigid this day but I managed some cute and colorful layers // First time wearing my OTK boots and it was an instant friendship // Sparkles and leather for NYE

That day it felt like spring in December and then it all went downhill // Letting my accessories do the talking //  A really fun outfit for a really fun night

What’s your favorite?

Happy (almost) spring!
