Beige Hole-y-day Sweater (Happy Thanksgiving!!)

I loved this sweater when it was given me to play around with! It was oversized and comfortable but there were lots of areas of discoloration.

Because it was light beige, the spots were super pronounced.

You can see here on the neckline:

I went to my trusty bottle of Dark Green Rit Dye...

...and changed the color!

From discolored to a gorgeous sage-y green!

Being in CO, the holes in the sweater = Wind Chill, USA, so I had to layer up!

Scarf, snowboots, and winter coat - key ingredients for a chilly day!

It's been such a long time since I've seen snow, so this moment made me very happy :) Even though it was a little dusting, I had to get my feet in! (These Pajar snow boots are my new jam. I'm obsessed with my furry ankles!)

There's nothing like large, glittered presents on the street! When I removed my gloves that were touching the silver box, they were covered in glitter! Small price to pay for a photo next to a life sized gift.

My first day in real wintry temperatures was a total success! Feet were warm and cozy and this upcycled sweater is now part of the loungewear collection! More winter outfits to come...

PS, my jacket is totally a maternity coat! I received it years ago as a gift when I was working in PR for the brand. It's become one of my most favorite pieces and one that gets complimented all the time.

Winter Wardrobe Week!!

I've arrived to the wintry Colorado temperatures to spend some quality time with some of my favorite people. It feels amazing to have a little taste of the cold weather right now! I couldn't have packed more sweaters and coats for this short trip, though. The amount of pieces that I fit into my check on bag...astonishing. A girls gotta be prepared, right? These are just a few pieces that you'll see over the next few days...

Loving this 80s dress with that aqua suede panel front and center. It's like my Miss America sash!!

Yep, those are screen printed feathers.

This is one of those pieces where people were shaking their heads and saying to themselves, "does that girl know what she's buying?"

Basic sweater with some not-so-basic discoloration. I have plans for this glorious oversized sweater that's going to be perfect when paired with my snow boots!

I hope you all have safe travels these next few days! Let the winter wardrobe week begin!!

Darci's NDAD Creation

When someone sends you a note on cat stationery, it becomes a treasured piece of mail! The lovely Darci in MI sent a remake my way that was striped perfection. Here's her note!

My crafty sewing friend helped me recreate this dress into something that I'd actually wear.

Time to see what Darci changed this striped apron-y/dress into...

Plus, a fun fact about the dress...it's MADE IN THE USA!!

Striped fabulousness, Darci! I love the colors and the belt paired with it! Seasonal appropriate if you add a sweater on top and let the stripes peek out below. So many fun options! Thank you SO much for sharing - you look gorgeous!
