Coat and Cape

Cape? Thrifted Coat? Thrifted Denim shirt? Vanilia (similar here) Jeans? 7 for all Mankind (here or these are even better here) Boots? Holt Renfrew Last Call (similar here)

In an attempt to get chronological again, I still have an outfit post from before I went to Texas... It was only last week that I wore this (I can date that based on my extreme roots situation, which works like carbon dating but much more accurate) but now it seems like a month ago. That's because last week wearing a cape over a coat was a clever way to keep out the chill and now that chill has been replaced by some sunshine and good vibes. I'm not complaining... though it will be sad to put my cape away for the season after I only just found it at the thrift store. 
What I am looking forward to most this spring is bare legs, sangria on the patio and adding more boxwood hedges to my front garden. What I am going to miss most about this winter is... well, nothing.

Also, I apologize for talking about the weather a lot, it's just been so crazy that it is messing with my mind...

  8. i for one can't get enough of talking about the weather. it's my northern-california roots. i grew up without weather of any kind (at 12, for 7 months i was sure the temperature gauge i had on my super cool sports backpack was broken. turns out it really is 65 every.single.day).
    that cape is pretty cool, cool enough to make a girl wish for a few more nippy days just so she can take it out again.

  14. I love talking about the weather, and I do it constantly! I think no matter what's going on, it's the one shared experience we all have. See, I'm still defending weather chat! Not just for small talk! Weather forever! Oh, and I love your outfit. :)
