Last week, the temps surpassed 60 degrees… in January… in New York City!

I’m just going to let the gravity of that fact sink in with you while I describe today’s outfit.  I originally didn’t think I’d get to don this playfully spotted frock until spring, but I took advantage of the winter “heat wave” to take it out for a spin.  A nubby little mohair sweater plus bright red shoes and matching lips were just the right finishing touches to help put some extra pep in my step!

    Alright, I feel guilty. It’s rarely anything but 60 and I never even think of going with bare legs. I need to toughen up!

    I love the feminine print and shape of this dress, and the colors are so classic. You could wear it a million ways!

    I just bought this yesterday! And I can wear it today because it’s 72 degrees in California.  Love the red lips and white cardi.  It’s kind of a modern take on mad men.  Love.
