Bulky

This sweater dress is a tough one to style, being so very bulky. But for the really chilly winter days, it sure does keep me nice and toasty. Here I used the vest to give it a slimmer shape, and matched my tights to the boots to elongate my legs. The boots have folded cuffs at the top, but here I flipped the cuffs up to make the boots even longer.

Dress: Banana Republic

Foiled Again

Well, I tried to wear this outfit, but I was foiled again by our unseasonably warm weather. No sooner had I taken the photos than I was starting to sweat, so the vest had to go. Sigh. Buying this vest seemed like such a great idea when I snagged it on sale last year. In New York. In February. After a snow storm. A California wardrobe staple this is not, but it makes for a good picture.
