Tricking Your Closet ...Into Thinking It’s Summer

Jan 27, 2011


{NECKLACE: RAUMSHOP ETSY, TEE: ARITZIA, DRESS: CLUB MONACO}

I did it! I convinced my closet that it was indeed summer. OK. Granted it wasn’t easy at first, Mr. Winter jacket was totally skeptical... but I SO pulled it off. DISCLAIMER: PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PARTICULAR BLOGGER DOES NOT ACTUALLY TALK TO HER CLOSET, UNLESS UNDER EXTREME DRESSING PRESSURE.

I was so excited to wear something, that, well, didn’t involve a heavy coat. Did I move to a warmer climate, you ask? Nope. I decided to crank the heat, light the fireplace, and invite the gals over to my place. Yay! Finally, complete dressing freedom. I settled on my beloved summer dress ...which I thought looked lovely with a sheer white tee layered underneath, along with my statement necklace, and no shoes! Because who wears shoes in the summer, right? Happy Thursday everyone. xx veronika

    I love that idea. A summer-themed girls night IN! That dress is gorgeous and I never thought to layer a sheer tee underneath. That's going on my shopping list. Love!

    Oh how I love this. I think we should completely decide on the season and adjust our thermostats and wardrobes accordingly.

    That's such a pretty dress! And sometimes it is fun to trick yourself that it's a different season. I'm embracing winter myself today though, hehe. I have flannel coming up to my neck!
