Today’s look is what I wore to work today, except for the fact that I actually wore my snow boots to work and slipped on these while at my desk. It has been so cold in the office lately there have been days where I didn’t take off my boots or coat the whole day. I’m not even talking about my Hunter’s when I say snow boots, I mean my snow boots I wear when I go skiing or snowmobiling. Today’s weather warmed up to like the 20’s so I was feeling adventurous and took a few pictures of my outfit over lunch.

I never plan out my work outfits ahead of time because I think it is fun to pull together different pieces and create a new outfit every day. I’m usually in a big rush in the morning so I like to buy a lot of separates that can be mixed and matched. Today I knew I wanted to be really warm so I layered this cream cashmere turtleneck with a longer grey wool cardigan, then to balance out the bulk on top, I paired these ankle length printed trousers with a heeled loafer. Since I had black, white, cream, and grey in my color palette, I added a neutral army green oversized coat and a pop of color with the emerald with my heels.

On a side note, all of my gloves are now fingerless or tech friendly like the ones I’m wearing, a sign of the times I guess – or my obsession with social media perhaps. These Isotoners I’m wearing are from Target, and they are much warmer than the knit ones, I highly recommend them.

On another side note, we are currently binge watching The Wire and I am obsessed. I caught myself saying how Breaking Bad is the best show ever, except for maybe The Wire – and I recall that was a line in a Family Guy episode…somehow it irks me that a Family Guy stereotype applies to me. Sigh, oh well…like they say, it’s funny because it’s true!
