I haven’t been wandering around naked or anything… it’s just cold ALL THE TIME, and it’s January, and I hardly ever leave my house if I don’t have to.
I do so loathe the wintertime. Really, really. So. Much.
So, you will find me wearing pretty much this very outfit, or some variation of it… perhaps with a black knit infinity scarf I bought for Martin, but which I’ve pretty much claimed for my very own, poor guy. I steal all the good stuff.
This toque with the sequin paw print on it (which I bought as part of a cancer fund-raising effort years ago) I wear all the time. We live in a poorly-insulated old Victorian, and I have very little hair on my head… it is necessary.
I rather like this long black sweater I was given for Christmas… it fairly lightweight, so it trails behind me when I walk – makes me feel like a superhero when I wear it. (I wear it a lot.) I bet it’ll look badass when I ride around on the scooter in the house…
My socks have some snowflakes across the toe, because I’m nothing if not festive, yo. I mean, don’t I look festive?
Black. Always black. I’m in mourning. For the loss of sunshine that has some actual heat in it. I miss you, summertime. Please come baaaaack…
Also, someone come and clean my mirror, please?

Well, if I ever left my house, I do have a jaunty red bag that would look pretty swell against this outfit… of course, its excellence would be completely usurped by all the un-sexiness of my big, brown body-condom parka I have to wear everywhere these days… winter is the longest ten months of the year. Le sigh.
Sweetie, I hear ya! I am in black all the time! Ive been injecting a shot of colour (like my red purse I carried to a few events the other day) as accessories and whoa!!!…. Gets me through the day (or night) . Bring on the spring..actually fast forward to summer! lets go! (yeah, the apostrophes are missing!) weird!
I think youre a witch… I dont know how your sorcery works, but my keyboard WILL NOT make the apostrophes, not for love nor money, honey. (And other people have also mentioned it, so just tell us how your krafty-majik works then, please?)
I dont believe you about your bottom, Alice. *snickers* But man, does this time of year ever make me S A D. I miss my sandals. (Poop.)
Also look! Apostrophes above! I think it’s just you guys. 😛
Ah, the long sweater. Lovely on you, schlumpy (and lumpy) on me with my larger bottom and lack of height. I am all for the hip length! And am a sucker for hoods.
But winter, god, yes, I hate winter and I hate winter clothes, so like you, I schlep around miserably in boring colours and stuff I don’t love until it warms up a touch. C’mon, spring!
I love cape-y things… always have.
Theres something tres suspicious about the missing apostrophes in this blog corner… I dont know what the culprit is!! Le sigh. (Balls.)
say yes to the cape! i have a similar one in brown and i always seem to strut when im wearing it.
(on another note…why is it i can never use an apostrophe in this blog??? the $#@ never works here)
