Dangerous

"If a little knowledge is dangerous, where is the man who has so much that he is out of danger?"-
Thomas Huxley


Tips for staying warm:
- wear layers (duh!) and stay away from the shoes in the pictures above- no warmth whatsoever...I swear, I think I did some damage to the vascularization in my toes!
- If you drive, wear leather gloves ...I never leave anywhere without mine
- Chunky scarves...theyre chic and functional ;)
- A serious parka (the one im wearing in this pictures is NOTHING compared to my North Face parka...le bf bought it for xmas and its the warmest thing ever
- wear tights under jeans/pants
- construction socks (warmest ever but hard to stuff into shoes....the ones im wearing in this pic are HM...I have a serious collection of socks (and underwear)....maybe I should show you guys one day...well minus the underwear )
Stay warm ...for those of you living in the North....and for those of you in Cali....im jealous :P

and I know....Im attatched to these pants..so much so that I think a little surgical intervention might be necessary to pry them off me...I'll try not to wear them tomorrow:P


It also seems I have been addicted to purple lately, which to be honest, is a little out of character....then again...whats IN character?! Could not resist for $8....I swear, I should change the name of this blog to rantings of a thrift addict or Frugal fashion or something ...haha...I might wear it to Anne's engagement party...its knee length so totally appropriate with a cute cardi..maybe leopard ;)

ohh love that dress.. its a copy of a marciano dress, which btw isn't even worth it. my cousin's marciano dress ripped TWICE and i think its done. i should tell her to buy that dress for $8 to make up for it!

anon i actually don't think she meant to purposely expose her bra, i think she is just trying to show how the purpose would look against the leopard.
