The challenge...

Wear the same "Little Black Dress" for the entire month of February.

The Little Black Dress

When a little black dress is right, there is nothing else to wear in its place.

When it rains, we accessorize!


California has, once again, been drenched with precipitation. Rain, rain… go AWAY! I, for the most part, dislike the rain; it messes with my hair, wreacks havoc on the roads, but it does allow us to accessorize like never before!!!

I’ve always been a fan of bright colored ‘gloomy weather’ wardrobe pieces. If it’s raining out I, a) want to make sure I can be seen through the fog, and b) want to be a ray of sunshine among the clouds when looked at. That being said, I paired the dress with a double-breasted light blue peacoat… one of my favorite jackets. In case of rain puddles, I stepped into a pair of my favorite black-buckle boots. Lastly, I topped the look off with a hot pink umbrella adorned with slight stripes of white, green and peach.
I stayed inside most of the day, but when I ventured out… I did so in style and was a ray of sunshine for the rest of the world bundled up in black and brown.

*Please excuse my lack of "semi-glamorous appearance" today... today my motto is "Saturday's were made to stroll around looking like a bum."
