As you can tell from these photos, I am more than happy today is the very last day of winter. I’ve already started my spring cleaning and I am slowly transitioning my wardrobe from winter to spring. I was a little disappointment because winter gains are very real and I have to work double time in order to fit back into my spring/summer clothes.
Outfit Details
The weather in Charlotte has been extremely unpredictable. We’ve had 20 degree weather, rain, snow and sunny warm days all in one week. How do I manage? Checking the weather app like every other minute? How do I dress? By wearing a wool dress without leggings, 3.0″ inch heels and a short coat. I bought this dress at Goodwill late last year and I’ve had on rotation the entire winter season. I figure I’d feature it on the blog since I wore it some much this season and I’m getting ready to put it away. It’s a pretty grey wool dress with an embellished faux-necklace collar and pockets! It’s actually the perfect dress for those lazy days when inspiration is low. I needed a lighter coat to run out the door so I opted for this faux-wool coat since it’s not heavy and warm enough for mild winter days. To finish this look I opted for these very pretty gold/silver Nine West heels and my black vintage bag.

The struggle is real with the ‘winter gains’. I am watching what I eat and trying to lose weight, (says the person who just ate 2 slices of lemon cake; what was I thinking) 😢
Omg I didn’t realize how bad it was until I started changing my wardrobe from winter to doing! My clothes are tight 😩😢😰😓😥!!
I know! 😢😢😢
