I’ve been feeling the Spring vibes lately and find myself being drawn to pleated minis with accent hosiery. The snow, however, is not co-operating and hasn’t let up one bit, hence my winter blues. But I have found a way to circumvent the cold somewhat by wearing everything short with over the knee boots. While I love the classic black and white combo I layered on some cobalt blue to liven things up a bit. And here I am now looking back at these pictures and really missing the weekend…

Happy Monday!

And then it was cold. Very cold. So cold that I had to dig my Russian style faux fur hat out from hibernation. I’ve never worn it before in all honesty, simply because the weather never called for it. But at -27 °C (-17 °F) I was not going to mess around! Indeed I can understand why the Russian style faux fur hat is so popular out there, man did that baby ever keep my head warm!

We managed to snap a few photos (it was too cold to stay outside for more than a minute) on our weekly run to replenish our west Indian groceries. Kind of ironic I think; to be picking up ingredients that make you think of nothing but sunshine and heat on a day when you can literally feel yourself freeze more and more with each passing minute outside!

Have a lovely day and stay warm! xoxo
