OOTD: Plaid Fleece and Denim

Sometimes (okay, most of the time) when it's cold, snowy, and generally blah out, you just want to be comfy and warm.  Now, since we can't go about our daily business wrapped in a quilt, or dare I say it, go to the office in a snuggy, we have to have classier ways to keep warm on those colder days.  This plaid shirt-dress is one of those solutions for me.  It's made of a light fleece, has long sleeves, and even has pockets to keep my lip balm handy.  Score, am I right?! Throw on a belt to cinch in the waist, and you're in business.

THE DEETS

Plaid Shirtdress: Winners

Denim Jacket: Charlotte Russe

Belt: Urban Outfitters (remixed here and here)

Leggings: Filene's Basement

Boots: Shellys (remixed here)

Branch Brooch: Old Weston

Paired with a cropped denim jacket and my favourite black boots, I keep nice and toasty and don't look so bad, either! And that right there is a sure fix for those winter blahs.

As a fun bonus, here's a shot of the handsome photographer, and the stupid face I kept making during this shoot to crack us both up, and also because I was cold.  I don't know why he continues to date me.  Guess I'm just lucky.

O.O.T.D: Plaid Shorts and Funny Faces

Here's a simple little outfit from earlier this week.  We were teching one of the last shows of the season, and hot as it can get outside, that theatre was freezing!! Knowing this, and knowing I was going to be in that icebox for about 4 hours, I figured I'd put together an outfit that I could cozy up, or cool down in.  Thus, heavier shorts, a t-shirt, and a long cardigan.  I also had a scarf in my purse, just in case it was really frigid, but luckily I didn't end up needing it. 

O.O.T.D. Evening at the Irish Harp

I wore this outfit to work, and then out for dinner and drinks with the girls from work at a local pub called The Irish Harp. They might know me by name at this particular establishment, because there's nowhere else in town to get a decent veggie burger. 

I had a production meeting in the studio theatre that day, and as I knew I'd be running around the space, making wild gestures and saying to directors "Like this?? You know??" a lot, a bun and the little shorts I am wearing under that little dress were a little necessary.  I swear this dress gets shorter every time I wear it, but I love it, so I'll just demote it to a tunic when it gets really out of hand. 

I'm also learning this week how hard it is to take your own photos and have them turn out. So here is the cream of the 120 I took. 120.  Unreal.  When I flipped through them on my camera really quickly, it was like a stop-motion film of me being awkward.  Amazing, obviously.
