to infinity and beyond

Even though it was sunny, it was well below 0 this past weekend so it's a good thing I stocked up on chunky infinity scarves.  I love this one from the GAP because it's bright and I've been wearing too much black lately (in this case, I purposefully wore all black so that the scarf would stand out more).  It's cozy and definitely keeps you warm when the temp dips that low.  I normally, hardly ever actually, wear all black, but in this case I wanted not only the scarf but the leather pockets of this J.Crew sweater to stand out.  I don't mind an all-black outfit when there are details to the outfit that make it interesting and these pockets certainly do that.

Since I found a coat for the winter, I'm now stocking up on toques (or beanies, as some people call them) since last week was freezing.  This weekend was pretty mild, but I find if you wear a toque, you're able to get away with wearing less clothing anyway.  I love this J.Crew one (mine is the non-cashmere version - I bought it in-store) because it's a nice pop of colour against all the black and grey I've been wearing lately.  (Speaking of grey, I missed out on the cardigan I wanted from the Isabel Marant collection for H&M, but needed a sweatshirt and thought this 'smile' one from the kids' collection was cute.)  It's not like me to wear so much of those colours.  And I think I was starting to go through withdrawals last week because I also picked up a neon pink sweater from French Connection, which I am obsessed with.  I feel like myself again!
