But it's not.
Welcome to Midwest weather.
How does one make it by, yearning for spring but still in the cold?
These are my digs that I've pleased to be incorporating into my wardrobe. It can be 40s in the morning but then hike up to 60s in the afternoon. So I'm prepared with a great mid-weight, unlined jacket and a mid-weight pant. Throwing in a madras tie beckons spring, so try that, too. And if you're still cold when the sun sets, end your evening with a night cap.

i love these colors!
ReplyDeleteGreat collection of clothes! Love the jacket and tie.
ReplyDeleteHah, I tried on that jacket in the Mich. Ave. store. At that price, I wanted to try to wax it. The buttons seemed like a little much.
ReplyDeleteAwesome pants, though!
The Field Notes notebooks are fantastic. They come out with a new batch of colors every three months or so. May want to think about a subscription
