INSTANT OUTFIT: First Snow Day

Posted November 14th, 2007 by usgirl
It is just wishful thinking, but ever since our "Thanksgiving" with friends I have been hooked on the idea of the holidays and the dream of a white Christmas to come. I am sure for some you out there, you have already experienced the first snow of the year.. something I will probably never experience. Yes I know I can visit snow and pretend to live in a winter wonderland... but I doubt it will ever be reaity for me.

So just for fun I created an instant outfit based on what I would wear on a perfect "first-snow-day".

In my dreams, I would wait till just after the snow settled and everything was quiet, pull on my galoshes (and "fake fur" coon-skin cap, of course - I've got to get one of those!) and head out for a midnight walk. For those who have these kind of days.. take a walk for me.

  • INSTANT OUTFIT: Tartan
    A society girl out there requested that my instant outfit this week be focused on the latest trend - TARTAN - I was more than happy to oblige. These days, tartan is not just for your scottish family reunion, it can be worn just about anytime and anywhere. There are tartan dresses, tartan bags, tartan hats and tartan coats. The list could go on and on - so why not give it a try!
  • INSTANT OUTFIT: Plaid
    A plaid shirt is classic. It seems every fall season includes at least one version of a plaid shirt, and though it looks a little "hill-billy" the shirt can be worn oh-so-chic.

    The instant outfit this week displays two ways to rock this look. For work or for play...

  • INSTANT OUTFIT: Leopard Print
    Ahh... the glory days of disco when leopard print was the rage. The print was a daily dose of drama and high society spinning around the dance floor at Studio 54. This season the look is back, but with much more versatility for the uptown or dowtown-kind-of-girl.
