// Dress: H&M;  Cardigan: Joe Fresh; Scarf: Winners;  Boots and belt: thrifted //


My lovely friend Allie, who has since gallivanted off to Australia, leaving us bereft of her bubbly personality, sharp fashion sense, and photography skills, took these pictures of me back in the fall before horrid old winter set in.  I've been saving these pics for weeks like this past one, when it's been minus 20 Celsius outside and I really could not be bothered to go out and suffer through a photo shoot.  Oh, fashion blogging. There are some things I'm just not willing to do for you.

  3. The scarf is what pulls it all together for me.

    You always have the best backdrops. It must be nice living somewhere that you don't need to worry about your neighbours wondering what you're doing outside taking photos of yourself all the time.

  4. Oh brrr, that is cold. This outfit is soft, and feminine without being too girly. You look lovely.

    I really enjoyed reading your bio. I am not musical and have such a great appreciation for those that sing and play instruments. Bravo! You don't say which country you are in, but perhaps with additional reading I will learn more.

  16. Katie, you are looking lovely as ever! Adore this ruffled dress (donchya LOVE H&M?) and how you balanced the femininity of it with the more defined aztec print. How are you feeling, Darling? I'm still sick, but hoping to come out of it soon. Hope you're doing well, you're certainly looking great!!! ~Sarah
