I'm a girly girl.  Kind of.  I favor simplicity in looks – and tend to wear a winter uniform of shirt/cardi/skirt  or dress/cardi – both with tights and mary janes or clunky shoes.  (Yes, I admit to wearing clunky shoes. Not the most fashionable but I love 'em.)  Ooohh and a colorful bag too.  

I own bags in orange, yellow, green, black, red, and  then a few patterned ones.  Laughed when I heard my five year old niece ask for bags for Christmas.  She loves purses and bags just like her auntie.  I would spend my allowance each week as a teenager – on purses. 

Scarves: can't forget about those. I own ones in gray, white, black, sky blue, raspberry and yellow/white.  This year am looking for a purple scarf and an orange one.

So here's the most recent of my wardrobe inspiration files.

    I absolutely adore the contrast of the Aran cable sweater with the floaty skirt on the blonde woman.
    As for the photo with the CD and book cases — Once upon a time I would have longed to be surrounded by so much music and so many book, but now, I see that photo, and I just think “clutter”. My mindset is changing.
    The one photo of the woman with the black loose cardigan over the white tunic reminds me of our discussion about an apartment that resembles a finely curated boutique. I’m sure she’s in a boutique, but it tickled my brain on that topic.

    super cute! although—I would die of hypothermia if I wore any of this during the winter without long-johns, three pairs of socks, and two pairs of gloves. It must not get very cold where you live!!!
    I think my favorite was that cream cable-knit with the wrinkly skirt. 🙂

    It actually is a fall photo from my folder but I couldn’t resist including it. I have a similar sweater I wear over a summery dress but end up adding tights to it. I live in Wisconsin where we have our share of cold winters, but I don’t have to be outside for very long. Mostly to and from the car. However, when I lived in Chicago and walked everywhere – oh boy – that’s when all the layering you mentioned comes into play. 🙂

    The photo was in a boutique – the one with the black cardigan over the white tunic. I was running behind this morning or I would have worn a similar outfit based on this photo. Ah well..there’s always tomorrow! I am still working on turning my apartment into what looks like a “finely curated boutique” as you put so well! How’s it coming for you?

    Hi Ren! I think I loved that first one with the bookcase because of the simple dress and pretty purple shoes! I like simple looks. And thank you! I’m glad you like the blog 🙂
