it's that glorious time of the year.

that is correct, it is the wonderful winter season. what does this mean? boots, scarfs, heavy jackets, cardigans and arizona freezing cold rain. well you know... and christmas and family togetherness, no big deal. just kidding, that's a big deal. but seriously, back to arizona winters. aside from the tons of rain we have had this week and my lack of decent winter clothing, it's been great. today it was pouring on my walk back from seminary... problem. how the heck is one supposed to style their hair to be rain-proof? luckily i didn't do anything to my hair today. after this dreadful walk across the street, i went to the bathroom to try to repair the damage. after using all possible self-control within me to resist sticking my head under the hand dryers to try to dry the sopping wet, flat, nasty mess, i decided to give up. winter season is just not an attractive one. no one looks very flattering when it's freezing cold and wet outside. so who even cares? well i'll tell you right now, i definitely don't. it's not like there's any boys to impress at school anyways. whatever. what was i saying again... oh yeah, winter. well quick side note before i get down to buisness. i found a vintage bicycle site. look at it, enjoy it, fall in love with it, here you go. how did i find this? who freakin knows. i run into all sorts of random stuff. pintrest? dont get. dont like it. just so you know.

now to buisness. i have found some winter style picture treasures for you, folks.


beautifully done, jess. cropped boyfriend jean, flats, polka dots and a circle scarf.




a major major challenge i struggle with is the whole short sleeave jacket/sweater thing... why the crap do they even sell those? well. if you mix it right, they look quite nice. like featured above. i just dont have the ability to find the perfect long sleeve shirt to go underneath of my short sleeve sweaters, therefore i just dont wear them.

pencil skirt with tights. very nice, very nice.


love it. ugly wrap sweaters? glorious.

FAV. polka dots tucked in with the high waited crop jeans.. glorious red leather jacket and pattern mixed with the lepard print.


this isnt wintery, i just liked it. haha

colored skinnies... yeahh.

CUTE.

arlght, i just found this fun little blog. some of it's kind of weird, but it's still a cute idea.

i stalk this chick kind of a lot... her pattern mixing gets a little insane sometimes and occasionally it's sketch... like, you seriously wore that to school? but whatevs. i like her because 1) she's mormon and she dresses modestly for the most part. which i like to see an example of. 2) she's young and all these pictures are of the outfit she wore to school... so it's inspirational. 3) she bargin hunts/ thrift store shops. 4) she loves pattern mixing/block coloring/style clashing more than i do. which is rare. check it out.
