White Pants

by //

So what do you think? Are white pants out after Labor Day? I tend to wear them all through winter. Is that bad? I don’t understand why “winter white” is acceptable but white white isn’t. I think it’s only acceptable because someone added the word “winter” in the name to make themselves feel better about wearing white after Labor Day. So I’m just gonna keep wearing my white pants with pride all through the Fall and Winter seasons.

Do you wear white in the winter? Or just winter white?

PS:  I scored these earrings at The Limited for $6.99! I love deals!

Ugg Sneakers

OK, so I’ve been wanting a pair of sneakers for a while. I’ve tried on so many pairs of Chuck Taylors I can’t even count. But I never quite liked the look of them on me because they’ve looked too masculine. I do have a pair from Coach that I bought many years ago, but they are SOOOO uncomfortable. And they make my feet sweat with no ventilation, then they get cold because they’re wet…it’s an ugly cycle.

For some reason I think these will be different. Maybe it’s because I think Ugg can do no wrong. They keep my feet toasty and I don’t care what people say about them! They’re great in the winter. OK, just maybe not everyday…which I am totally guilty of. But I’m trying you guys!

So, what do you think? Like ’em? Want a pair? Here are a couple from the Ugg site. There are lots of other cool ones on Amazon.

fall is coming

So, I am a warm weather person. I’m sure I’ve mentioned this before. I am cold all year round, but I have a better chance to be warm in the spring and summer, so I much prefer them. However, I know that I have to live through winter so I’m going to dwell on the best of them and get myself psyched out for the cold. Here are some things I’m looking forward to:

  1. Snuggling on the couch watching movies with Bob
  2. Bella (my puppy) will be potty trained by then and will go out on her own.
  3. New episodes of my favorite shows
  4. Honeycrisp Apples
  5. Jeggings (I’m kinda shy with leggings, but think I need a pair!)
  6. Leaves turning colors
  7. Bare trees against the winter sky
  8. Christmas
  9. My Birthday
  10. Uggs (Sure! Pass judgement on me now, but once winter comes, you’ll be wearing them too.)
  11. Hot beverages (honey lattes, rooibos tea, hot chocolate, etc.)
  12. Thanksgiving dinner (easliy my favorite meal of the year)
  13. Valentine’s Day
  14. Cutting down a Christmas Tree
  15. The Fall line from Anthropologie (Can I please have those boots!?!)

Help me out. What do you love about Fall? Why should I look forward to it? And please don’t say the cool weather because that’s not a reason for me. 🙂
