Thanks ladies!
Rabbit, yes the scarf is long enough to wrap that way, though I haven't tried it around the shoulders yet. I seem to like it best left long, but it's extra cozy doubled up like a big fluffy shoulder warmer. It's Dramatic with a capital D for sure. If we'd had any snow this year I was planning on using it under and over my winter coats... but, well, you know how that turned out
Jackie, those pants sound super fun! I've always been a fan of the pantaloon vibe, and this layering should help extend the seasonality of a few of my long shorts that normally only get worn in summer. I bet it would look awesome with your puffy shorts!
Angie, thanks for chiming back in on the layered looks. I ADORE that outfit you've pinned, soooo cute! I've actually been toying with the idea of more leggings all season, and the idea of pairing under pants, shorts and skirts sounds so much more appealing to me than with the more standard tunics/dresses; I also particularly like that you can tell they're leggings and not tights. That exposed foot skin makes all the difference for me. Will definitely explore this while we've got the weather for it! Also, I totally bit on the adorable shoes since they're running a 40% off thing. I'm all for a wardrobe of pretty and refined shoes ^^
Sharan and Jaime, I would hem the flares in a way that would leave them to drape similarly to how they look here; I just don't want to have to belt them up as high as I had to here. I've a hunch they'll end up looking a bit more straight, though. I doubt I'll ever wear them with 4" heels again so I think it's worth a try especially since the bulk of my heels are right around 2" these days. (And thanks for the brief but detailed feedback, Jaime!)
