Torn
We have been blessed with absolutely gorgeous spring like weather lately for which I am eternally grateful. I almost had forgotten what it's like to walk around without a coat not freezing my booty off.
And although it's only {late} January, it gives me hope that spring is not so far away. Which makes me very, very happy!
But at the beginning of every transitional season, I get a little antsy wardrobe-wise. I have so many pastel-laden, lovely cotton skirt-ridden, short sleeve-baring looks in the works and I can't wait to bust them out. Buuuuuut . . .
There are also many sweaters and tights and trousers and jeans and boots that I either haven't had a chance to wear or haven't worn to death yet.
I know this isn't the crisis of the century. Trust me, I wish my only dilemma in life was having so many clothes that I don't get a chance to wear them all or as much as I like. But I know that once I pack away my warm and cozies for the spring and summer, I will be missing them. Just like I've been missing my dresses and sandals in the cold and dreary months.
Such is the life of a style blogger I guess. But it doesn't change the fact that I will take the warm weather over the freezing weather any day. And that's a fact Jack.

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
