Winter's Trespassing

Photography by Kevin Michael Smith

This winter in Philadelphia has felt nothing like the winter's before, it's been mild and balmy. For me, that meant to take full advantage of it! Peel away the heavy layers and textures to reveal your skin again, wear that autumn jacket that you forgot about and pull out those flowy dresses! This Winter, mother nature has been kind to us by granting us 70-60 degree days, in January, which is unheard of for the northeastern states! I'll take what we can get! 

The jacket in this outfit is actually a dress, I wore it unbuttoned to get a different kind of look. Some of you might remember seeing it in an older outfit post. It was the perfect light layer for such a warm Autumnal day. I like to play with volumes, pairing two big and flowy pieces felt like such a no brainer,  it's my way of playing with minimalism without sacrificing the neutral palette. It's also perfect for a slightly windy day to create beautiful shapes!

Soaking up the sun and warm weather for as long as I can until the real seasonal weather hits, snow, sleet, below freezing temps, yikes! Minimalism at it's best is when you can take a piece that you've worn before in a different manner and wear it again, differently. Timelessness is built upon that concept, and I try to abide by it everyday. A closet full of "nothing" suddenly becomes full of options! Dear readers, how do you dress for the uncommon unseasonal weathered days?
