I am back!
I didn't expect to be absent from the blog for such a long time. Thanksgiving break breezed by, followed by studying for the law school finals (ie. the only grade for each class), winter break spent with my best friend since middle school in North Carolina and Kentucky, the flu, and then the start of the semester. This blog was never meant to detract from my real life so in times when updating it would have been more stressful than to not update it, I decided to give myself a break. I did chirp a few times over at Twitter though.

Anyone living in New York knows it was brutally cold this past week. Wearing one heavy jacket was simply not enough. Thus I thought it might be fun to show you guys how I usually layer and yet still manage to look somewhat presentable...
I love this coat. I bought it freshman or sophomore year of college on clearance and it has served me well over the years.
I finally upgraded from a brick phone and thus created an instagram account! It has been mostly pictures of scenery and BBQ but if you're curious as to what I do on a daily basis, stop on by. @inherstilettos

  5. So cute. You could even throw on a long sleeve shirt under the sweater for another layer of warmth. Glad things are going well.

    Your Urban Outfitters wool jacket is nice and I like your gold skirt too =)
