Glove-Socks

January 21, 2015 by Nikki 2 Comments

Good morning, dear readers. I wanted to take a few minutes to apologize for my absence this week but I came down with a touch of food poisoning over the weekend and I didn’t get a chance to take or post any outfit photos. Once I was feeling better,catching up on school work took precedent. But my friend and I did get some funny pics from last week that I’ll leave right here to give you a nice chuckle.

It was extremely cold out (by NC standards, at least) and we experienced some freezing rain. It seems I didn’t pack very appropriate footwear for my week at school and after walking around campus, my feet were FREEZING. Like, I couldn’t feel several of my toes.  The only solutiion I had was to wear my gloves as socks, and you know what? It worked! Remember that if you’re ever in a similar bind. You’re welcome.

I call this one “monkey toes” because that’s what it looked like!

I hope to be back to a normal schedule next week. I hope everyone has a great day and stays warm in whatever way you can 😉

Winter Pink

Y’all, it was cold out when we took these photos! I had been at the public library for several hours doing some homework (fewer distractions there) and Nick met me to take photos. When we left, my car thermometer read in the 20s. I’m sure some of you are laughing at me because you’re dealing with negative temperatures, but this is cold for North Carolina. And Nick is such a trooper because he forgot his gloves!

Normally, I really like cold weather but, I gotta tell ya, I’m ready for Spring. That’s why I’m wearing Spring-ish colors in the pink shirt and floral scarf. The shirt is actually more fuchsia than pink (or even purple as it looks in the photos) and it has really cute dot details.

I’ve mentioned it before and I’ll mention it again: I think sweaters are the perfect match for this white puffy vest! What do you think?

I had to put my coat back on before my arms froze off!
