A sea of snow

dear creatures sweater

Happy Monday!  I actually had some semblance of a weekend, which was very nice indeed.  I even managed to take some photos over the last few days (it's warmed up a bit from -4 degrees, luckily), and my days off were well-timed, since I have a few new pieces -- and I'd run out of my stockpile of outfit photos!  Of course, I still waited 'til the last minute to finish this post... but at least I'd planned ahead in other ways.

I feel as if I rummaged through my entire closet in order to find something with which I could wear this sweater.  I had several ideas in mind, but none of them panned out the way I imagined they would.  I almost opted to wear it with jeans, but I wanted a dressier option.  I finally remembered this strapless dress from ModCloth, and though my original thought was to wear it with a white skirt, I realized that this would layer quite nicely.  This dress doesn't get nearly enough wear, so it was nice to bring it out again for a spin.

  1. Adorable sweater and well paired with this skirt (well, dress. You know what I mean), though I confess, I'm curious what it would look like with jeans. Part of that is just I've never seen you with jeans and the other is it is fun to see an item like a sweater in both dressier and dressed-down looks.

  2. Wait, is More Sea a Morrisey pun? Even if it's not, great look! I love the photography here too, it's like the heavens are opening up and shining approval of your outfit down on you.

  3. I really like the pattern on that dress and how you wore it as a skirt. This sweater is very cute with it too! I'm loving how wintry these pictures are too.

  4. This is so ridiculously cute! I think this dress was a great choice with this sweater. I'd probably do the same thing with my strapless dresses! I wish I had pulled the trigger on this Dear Creatures piece, I'm totally having... the opposite of buyer's remorse?

  5. Really charming look - I second the message on your sweater entirely. Objectively it hasn't been that long - early last fall - since I was at the sea (technically ocean), yet I miss it dearly already and could do with far more of it in my life. Hopefully I'll get a chance to visit the Pacific again this year.
