Let me begin by saying that no, I did not take these photos over the weekend.  It was ridiculously cold so I went into hibernation mode Saturday night and all day Sunday.  The wind was howling and the arctic blast was in full effect so I hunkered down, baked a chocolate cake, and binge watched The Good Wife (sooo good).  We took these photos last week before the temps took a major dip although I’m not going to lie and tell you it was pleasant or comfortable getting these shots.  It was annoyingly windy and I needed a very hot beverage after we captured these images.  But, I’m not one to waste a good hair day and since I was coming straight from a much overdue appointment, I decided to brave the elements with my fresh, new look.  I was itching for a change so my hair stylist convinced me to take a few inches off and go a little lighter and I couldn’t be more pleased!  Now, onto my outfit…I scooped up this cozy knit sweater at Old Navy on sale the other week and it’s been on repeat ever since.  I have paired it with just about everything from jeans to leggings to skinny black pants.  Plus, it’s the perfect layering piece worn underneath a blazer or a vest because let’s face it…warmth takes precedence these days!  Since I’m seriously over my snow boots, these over the knee boots (which are currently on sale!) are a welcome alternative.  They’re incredibly comfortable yet still lend any ensemble a polished and pulled together look.
