Closet Confection: In Bold Print

When: Wednesday, January 12th, 2011

Where: Work

What: Cardigan (Nine West via Filene’s Basement), dress (Strawberry), tights (Calvin Klein), shoes (Nicole Miller via Filene’s Basement)

I am sooooo over winter it’s not even funny!  Yesterday we got hit with another 7 inches of snow, and I was not a happy camper.  To shake away some of the winter blahs, I went for a bold graphic print.  It helped some, but I definitely would have preferred to be lying on a white sand beach somewhere in the Caribbean with a piña colada in hand.

Perhaps I’ll have my own indoor beach party this weekend.  What do you think?  I can crank up the thermostat to 85, throw on a couple of Bay Watch reruns, and lounge around the house in my bathing suit.

Perhaps I should take my Christmas tree down first…

      Thanks. I do find this dress to be pretty flattering. I also have it in another print!

    lol, yes the tree must come down first. I am in LA and its still pretty crisp out here! Not a christmas tree in sight though!

    I am over this weather as well! At least your outfit is bright and cheery!!

    Love the idea of your beach part – don’t forget a summery drink with a cocktail umbrella!

    A print always seems to brighten my day, too. The colors of that dress look gorgeous on you…hopefully it cheered you up a bit! I totally understand why you feel over winter. I mean, I ran all the way to Mexico to stay away from winter this year! If it makes you feel better, I’ll have a pina colada for you today! 🙂

      It did cheer me up some. Enjoy the pina colada, and send me some sunshine while you’re at it! 🙂

    You’ve officially convinced me to check out Strawberry. Super cute work dress, which is always something I need more of.

      You’re welcome. It was my pleasure!

    I will definitely take my tree down soon, hopefully over this long weekend. I kid you not that I have an uncle who leaves his tree up until June. At that point, I figure you might as well leave it up until Christmas rolls around again, lol!

    Simple and chic!

    I’ll trade your snow for my rain!

    Thanks for the blog comment! :o)
