The weather took  a CRAZY turn for the worse, and we got hit with an unexpected snowstorm this weekend.  Luckily, it melted the very next day.  But it was still enough to send me scrambling for my down jacket and winter boots.  I actually wore this dress out to brunch with grey cableknit leggings (or sweggings, as I like to call them) and a pair of chunky Sorel boots.  It was way too windy and slushy out to snap any pics.  So when I got home, I shed my extra layers and styled up my new dress the way I had originally planned.

The last time I wore this dress, I was headed for a night out on the town.  This time, I decided to dress things down a bit for an afternoon of aimless meandering.  Although I don’t wear it often enough, this jacket is one of my fav-o-rites.  It’s incredibly warm and cozy, plus it has a hood.  Bonus!

I wish that I had more occasions to wear cute little party dresses like this one.  Not that a woman needs an excuse to get all dolled up… Au contraire!

In fact, I once knew a girl who always wore a string of pearls to the gym.  And my college roommate would put on full makeup before doing laundry (and sometimes fire drills, which I was forced to take exception with).  My only absolute necessity is a pair of earrings.  I just feel naked without them, so I try to keep a pair of emergency studs in my makeup bag.

Would love to know if any of you readers have any finishing touches that you never leave home without.
