OOTD 1.4.12 {cooperative weather}


The weather around here has been extremely cooperative lately... allowing me to wear my new Christmas gifts. Not the silk scarf or the patent, raffia covered wedge LKBs, naturally, but those wonderful wellies.

The more rain-sensitive pieces will see the light of day sometime in July.


I find wrapping up in a blanket-y cardi (Target), Hunter wellies and some stretchy pants (Target, last year) the perfect solution to cold, gray, rainy, and just coming off the holidays.


Hope you're staying warm and dry.

  1. That was quick! HA! Love the wellies...esp. in the dark green color that you have. I may have to ask for some for my bday:) Yes, wearing some black stretchies and a blanket-y cardigan is the BEST uniform for dark and dreary days:)

  3. I saw those wellies on a British mystery show and had the hubs pause it so I could point out you had 'em. Very cute outfit for a rainy day.

  7. I'm wearing that very same Target cardi as I type this - great minds! - and only wish I had the Wellies. I'm still struggling to justify them for the 3 minutes of rain we get here in Texas per annum :-).

  11. I wasn't into the blanket cardigan but this combination with the tights and rain-boots totally got me hooked. I don't have Target close by up here in Canada though, (sigh). This happened before too, I read your entry on the Old Navy print blouse with a cardi and bracelets and I immediately ordered a few of the print blouses online at Old Navy. Blanket cardi, here I come I'm on the look out for you!
