End Notes:
Today is a paper and paper-proposal writing day, so I’m keeping things simple in a jersey dress (also part of my Target spree in Colorado). I am inordinately excited about the sleeve ties; when dressing primarily in jersey, it’s the little details that spruce things up.
It’s a little chillier today than earlier this week, but I’m embracing the opportunity to squeeze in some more wear from my beloved boots. As excited as I am for spring, I am regretful to pack away these boots. I can’t really think of anything else in my winter/fall wardrobe from which I am truly sad to take a leave of absence. While I love my coats and my thick patterned scarves, I’m ready for a break. These boots? Not ready.
What about you? Is there a colder weather item that you’ll be sad to pack away for the next two seasons? What are you trying to get one last wear out of? (And yes, I just dangled a preposition.)
Love that rich brown with the bright turquoise necklace. And I will miss my entire boot collection – I was just lamenting that yesterday. Sandals are nice, but I’m a boot girl at heart!
I live in North Carolina, so I will really miss ALL my winter clothes. It seems like I just started wearing them! Mostly, I’ll miss my collection of closed-toe shoes, since it just gets way to hot here in the summer for anything but sandals.
very pretty…i’ll miss wearing my boots as well…love yours, i need to get them or something similar..love the color…oh also my red jcrew coat…i’ll use them till the end..its still chilly in NY
Love the color combo. You look lovely – boho-chic! I live in Cali, so not much use for winter wear here.
Another great look from you! I love the socks under the boots and the turquoise with blue. I’ll be sad to put away my new Nine West boots. I just got them mid-Winter so haven’t gotten a ton of use out of them yet. Other than that, bring on Summer!
I have a dress similar to that one which I will miss.
Aren’t jersey dresses awesome? I love how they are so comfortable and stylish at the same time.
