This outfit (picture 1) was inspired by Angie's recent Casual Layers ensemble (picture 2). Feeling bored with my work outfit routine, I decided to challenge myself by trying out as many Angie ensembles this week as possible.

So most of you know I live a casual lifestyle in the mountains and work at my family's cafe. If you live in N. California you might also know we had a big storm on Friday night. The snow still hasn't melted -- quite unusual for us, our average December temperatures are around 54F. Night time temps have been in the teens, nothing for you Northerners but our plumbing is not built for hard freezes like this -- we already had one pipe bur$t. Anyway, I still can't drive to work, I had to walk (picture 3). Not that it was unpleasant!

So - back to the outfit. It felt good using both the chambray shirt and the color block jacket, they had become orphans. And I know the leg-shortening snow boots don't look as good as 4" pumps, but they got me to work safely.

Oops -- I did forget to include the Zara tote in the outfit picture; I have the same one!
