I wore this outfit during an unseasonably warm day.  But sadly, I don’t think my bare legs will be seeing the light of day again until spring… unless I move to Florida.

Black and white is my typical fallback when I’m in a rush and feel like I have nothing to wear, but I was in a mood for something more neutral this time around.  I picked up this skirt at Forever 21 a while back, and I decided to pair it with a crisp white blouse to emulate the look and feel of a 1950s shirtwaist dress.  Now all I need are bobby socks and a pair of saddle shoes… oh and a crinoline slip!

As usual, I’ve waited until the last minute to do my Christmas shopping… and you may have noticed that I slipped in a couple of new luxuries for myself.  I just couldn’t help it.  A girl’s gotta treat herself sometimes!

I recognize that I look kind of ridiculous in these photos, but truth be told, it was ABSOLUTELY FREEZING when we snapped these pics. Dancing around was all I could do to keep my teeth from chattering the entire time. My schedule this week has been packed with holiday gatherings, and I thought this cute little trapeze dress was the perfect festive getup. I wasn’t sure what shoes/tights combo to pair it with, but then I searched through my archives for some inspiration (one of the benefits of running a personal style blog!), and I ran across this number that I wore back in March. BOOM – instant outfit!
