On Rainy Days

Summer is definitely over in Wellington, friends. With temperatures hovering at about 55 F with lots of wind and rain, it's been hard to convince myself to leave the flat, let alone look semi-fashionable. On rainy days (most often when I don't have to work) I've been trying to come up with ways to spruce up outfits/convince myself that going out in sweatpants is unacceptable. This is what I have so far:

How I Spruce:

1. Add a bright color. I'm not sure if jewel tones are still "in", but i don't care i LOVE this cardigan.
2. Braids! Braids make everything fancier. They're also an excellent way to keep your hair out of your face/hide that you need to wash your hair. Not that I ever do that.
   
3. Ankle boots! I looooooooove ankle boots. They go with everything and I can even wear these bad boys to work.
4. Red Lipstick. Were I able to get away with wearing red lipstick to work, I would probably be rockin it every day.
