Orange Haze

While I don't love the cold, I do love a good winter jacket.  I'd had my eye on this updated peacoat for quite some time.  Pairing it with fire-engine red jeans helps to ward off the mid winter doldrums.

Bright lipstick tends to help me with that as well!

My favorite part of the jacket is the exaggerated collar - it reminds me of something Ali McGraw might have worn in "Love Story."

I kept my sweater/shirt combination muted since my jeans were pretty loud.

These boots are the other item that's been on serious repeat lately...they're pretty perfect with pretty much everything.

We've been playing around with our new camera lens - I love how it picked up the gorgeous orangey late afternoon sunlight.

Windy

I thought I was being so smart wearing a hat in Miami to protect my face from the sun...but then it turned out not to be very sunny...and very windy.  Oh well, I figure if I brought it all the way down here I might as well wear it!  Perfect for a casual outfit for an afternoon of walking around South Beach.

Lush

As I sit here shivering in freezing cold NYC, it's hard to believe that I was in warm, lush, and green Miami a few short days ago.  I was down there for some major rest and relaxation before ringing in the New Year.  It was a rare treat being able to wear no sleeves (and no coat) at the end of December.

Season's Greetings

Made it up to the North Country in time for Christmas (and promptly changed my shoes, skirt, gloves and lack of hat!).  It's been a true white Christmas - complete with multiple snow sports and lots of food and family.  Here's to wishing you and yours a wonderful and happy holiday season!

XOXO, Sarah and Sam

Rain Check

Unfortunately, we got rained out of taking pictures last weekend and due to busy holiday (and birthday, happy birthday Sam!) we couldn't squeeze any in during the week.  This photo is from a friend's wedding this past fall.  I was less than inspired when looking for dresses to wear so I decided to make one for myself.  Since the dress is super simple, I added some bright and colorful accessories to keep it fun.

Make Tracks

The colder it gets, the more layers I can wear -- which is fine by me!  Leather jacket season tends to be rather short so I try to get as much action in while I can.  Unfortunately, I think it's drawing to a close quickly.  But with a trusty hat and scarf (and lots of layers underneath) I think I might get in a few more wears.

Seeing Red

I love pairing these pants with easy, classic pieces.  Since bright red pants can be a bit loud so toning them down with white and blue kept things weekend appropriate.

A down vest is the perfect solution for days that are cool but not cold enough for a winter jacket.

I mean...Chanel goes with everything, right?

I've slowly been unpacking my winter accessories - including my favorite red leather gloves.

I have to wear my highest shoes with these pants (since they're so long).  Hidden heels - an excellent trick to looking extra tall!

Such a beautiful day in a beautiful spot.
