Katerina -- I love this plaid top because its neckline plays so nicely with pendant necklaces.
Rachy -- I was liking red a lot right up through Christmas, then fell hard for green once January rolled around. I'm all about tonal greens right now...
Smittie -- yup, lip colour -- I wear it pretty often but rarely catch it in photos. #1 is a pretty good representation of what I look like when I head out the door (or what I aim for anyway). So much more visual interest with outerwear, right? As for hats -- that's pretty much where they want to sit; I have no tips. It's either that, or they fall over my eyes (I have a small head).
Angie -- believe it or not, I got a matching turquoise tote bag and wallet for Christmas! They're washable nylon, not fancy, but good for my lifestyle as everyday carries. I'm on the lookout for a convertible crossbody in turquoise for special occasions. I never remember to grab my bag for WIW photos.
Mainelady -- yes, texture!! I need it in the winter. Anything to offset the sea of dark neutrals. If we get a few more warm-ish days, I'm pulling out my tweed skirt next week. Angie's post this morning was inspiring.
