Little Red Riding Coat.

I didn't actually wear my heels to school today, but I bought the socks so that I could wear them with these heels. So for the sake of the photos, I changed my boots to my black wedges instead.

(Thrift red coat, Zara black shorts, black tights, Sox gallery red long socks, Aldo wedges)

I had my collar up like this when I was at school, and it acted like a scarf pretty much.

To my suprise, the outfit really did a good job of keeping me warm today. It was about 11 degrees sometime during the day and I wasn't feeling THAT cold. So that's good.

One thing I'm really excited for this week is that my dad is changing my internet modem so now it'll be much faster! Posting will just be that much easier, and since I was blogging in Jakarta (so I know how fast it was to upload pictures - it takes FOREVER here, quite literally) I was getting used to getting things done really fast.

Getting colder here,
Tammie.

Christmas Is Almost Here

Winter: spend the winter; "We wintered on the Riviera"; "Shackleton's men overwintered on Elephant Island"


Everyone getting pumped for Christmas yet? Well here's a list of upcoming trends of wintery christmas delights to get some Christmas spirit up!


1. Peter Pan Collars

Yes, peter pan collars. You either love them or you hate them, I suppose. Well I LOVE them. They're absolutely adorable and really gives you that cozy, winter vibe when worn appropriately. I like them because they're not pointed like normal collars. I like 'em nice and curvy ;)




2. Colored Coats

Absolutely perfect depiction of what
I'm talking about.

Winter is usually associated with warm colors... but really, I don't think it's a rule worth sticking with. Why not add a touch of bold brights with your wintery outfits? I think the best way to achieve this is by wearing colored coats. They'll keep you nice and warm as well as give you that edge to stand out from everyone else (who, let's assume, are wearing browns, blacks and grays). 


3. Anything Sheer
Normally people would be too cold to think about anything sheer during this time of the year. Well, I beg to differ. You can ALWAYS stay warm and have something sheer on! Well maybe I'm slightly biased and uninformed (of how cold it could get in the cooler regions of the world), but where I am, winter is usually cope-able. Long sheer maxi skirts over tights or nice loose harems/pants or a sheer top layered with a thick coat and scarves could do nicely. Or even a sheer maxi dress if you're daring enough, and it's not too cold that the only people admiring your outfits will be those in the hospital. Wow, I need me an inspiration board.

Absolutely gorgeous example. 

These are only a few ideas which I have for wintery delights :) and I hope you guys get inspired with some of the stuff I wrote! I will add more if I have the time, but I should be studying for my test tomorrow. Instead, I'm doing this which I prefer so much more.

Wish me luck,

Tammie.
