Silence and Noise Boyfriend Blazer

Madewell Skinny Low Cords in Black (similar at the Crew here)
Target Katherine Engineer Boots (restocked online! Go now!)
Rebecca Minkoff Studded Devote in Black/Gunmetal
Gap initial pin from 2006 (maybe 2005?)
Pearl ring borrowed from my sister


This is what I wore to grab lunch with my sister and patiently be chauffeured around town. I recently rediscovered this little "J" pin I bought a couple years ago! As I don't seem to own any other brooches, I think that a little pink initial is a nice touch to girly-up my trusty boyfriend blazer.

My car is currently out of commission, and Atlanta is unforgivingly car-centric. Sure, there is a bus stop right at my street corner, but Maps tells me that it would take unendingly long periods of time to get to destinations I want to reach.

Additionally, there is still snow on the ground here and I don't much want to wear anything other than flannel pajamas and fuzzy socks! Not going to lie, I wore hideous (but warm!) chenille socks inside of my boots today. I keep trying to read all of the "winter chic" style articles I can find, but I fail to be incredibly inspired when the weather itself isn't so inspiring.

I go back to school on Wednesday and hope I can pull something together that's warm and business appropriate by then! The walk from the bus stop to my classroom is mighty long when it is pitch black and freezing. What are your go-tos for winter style? I'm feeling bewildered. Isn't it supposed to be 50 degrees here this time of year?

  1. Howdy - I just discovered your blog and love your "what i wore today" posts. Your outfit today looks perfectly chic yet casual, pretty yet tough. Keep it up!

  2. My outfit today is very similar to yours. I wore my grey wind-rippled tee with a grey Charlotte Tarantola cardi from Anthro last year, rust colored J Crew matchstick cords & boots. I like to wear cords more than jeans in the winter for the warmth factor. If I'm going to be outside in the cold for a long period of time I layer my wool tights underneath & it keeps me warm!
    I'm lovin' your RM bag! Such a great style and size.
    That sucks you are without a car right now - hope you get it fixed soon!

  3. I just noticed your comment thingy says "Bonjour y'all!" ^.^ Love it! Also, I LOVE this tee. I own it in the teal, and my only regret is not getting it in all the colors. And Target informs me that my Katherine boots are on their merry way to me right now!! Yay!!! And yeah, Ga winter's been crazy ever since last last. Luckily, I graduated in 2007 (UGA) and in my time in Athens, winter was mild as can be. I'm talking sleeveless dress with a cardigan and peep-toes mild.

  6. Key winter items for me include knee-high socks, footless tights, and cardigans. My coat takes care of the elements while my light layers keep me comfortable indoors.

    Today I wore a grey long-sleeve dress with a slip under it. On my legs I wore tights with knee-high socks and tall boots. I wore a wool coat, scarf, hat and mittens that allowed me to stay nice and warm on my bus/ train ride to work.

  8. Ohhh I love this! You look so modern and metropolitan, which is awesome because I am always styling my teal wind-rippled tee in the more fluffy, feminine direction. Thanks for the boot link, I may just need those!

  9. Love the whole look - I agree with the above post about how I usually style my tee in a more feminine way, so this is great inspiration. Love the bag as well!
