Essential Ecru

Late lies the wintry sun a-bed,
A frosty, fiery sleepy-head,
Blinks but an hour or two; and then,
A blood-red orange, sets again.
    Robert Louis Stevenson

Outfit: Boots (Thrifted), Bag (Thrifted), Infinity Scarf (Gift), 

Dress (Thrifted), Sweater (Took this from my Mom's closet)

  People were definitely giving me looks today, they probably were thinking I'm positively bonkers! I don't blame them either, taking my coat off in -23 degrees Celsius weather (this morning it was -31).  I must say, I feel pretty darn dedicated! 

   I dressed for the weather though, with my over-sized sweater and giant infinity scarf! One of my favourite colour combinations is brown and black/beige/tan, as this outfit can testify to. Can you believe I thrifted this camel leather bag for only five dollars? I love the roses, the twist clasp closure, and the vintage feel it has. I don't get to use it much during the winter and I suppose the spring as well since gets water marks, it's definitely more of a summer bag. This week I'll definitely be donning similar looks with the temperatures so low- cozy knit sweaters and warm scarves. 

Cheers!
