Or, if you live in Northern Alberta, it’s already here.
I wish I could work in a Wall reference here, if only because … oh, what the hell. (Besides, Kit’s facial expression perfectly nails my feelings about winter. Sad kitteh is sad.)
Where was I? Right, outfit. Sometimes, one loud print is not enough. So, you know, I just add more. These two don’t really go, but in an otherwise fairly coordinated outfit, it’s less likely anyone will notice.
In case you were wondering, I wore this to get the kids’ passport photos taken (absolute hell) and drop in at Indigo so Luka could play with the train-set (it was gone, and he was devastated) and I could pick up Olive Kitteridge. My husband and I watched the HBO adaptation not long ago, and loved it. I haven’t read a fiction book in ages, and thought this might be just the ticket. I haven’t finished it yet, but I’m very much enjoying it.
What are you reading these days?
Christmas catalogues from the retail stores for present ideas, RED magazine & on my Kindle something about the Rose Petal Beach. Dorothy Koomson, love her books.
Oooh, what kind of books does she write? I’m looking for more good fiction …
I love the way you tied the colors together. Winter is already coming our way due to the lake effect.
Thanks 🙂 Hey, we can commiserate together! brrrrr ….
You look darling! The patterns coordinate well when you have that bag to tie it all together! It’s terribly cold here in Wisconsin too. I’m already sick of winter and there are so many more months to go…

I know! That’s the worst part. This is just the beginning; another 5 months to go … if we’re lucky 🙁
Adina, this is quite possibly one of my favorite work outfits of yours, gorgeous colors and prints!
Thank you 🙂
Books on baby sleep. I have The Newlyweds on my nightstand, but can’t manager to open it… I miss reading novels.
Your blue coat is lovely. And I miss the snow.
No way! Well, ok, I guess I can see how you might miss the snow if you live somewhere very very warm. But it’s not just the snow. The snow looks pretty, at least. It’s the bone-chilling cold. Freeze-your-eyelashes cold. No one can miss that! 😉
I never thought I’d say this… But I actually miss Buffalo winters. Here last year winter seemed like a long, rainy fall…
Yeah, I could see how that would pall after a while. Long, grey, rainy seasons is why I couldn’t live in Vancouver, as much as I love the city.
I love all the colours in the scarf!
I just finished reading book 2 of the Fionavar Tapestry trilogy. I’m really enjoying the series.
Wait, the patterns don’t go together? I had to go back and take another look because my initial glance didn’t notice anything amiss. Yay for pattern pairing.
Right now I’m reading Persuasion by Arlene Dickinson, and after that I might read An Astronaut’s Guide to Life on Earth by Chris Hadfield. No fiction at the moment, unfortunately.
Haha! Well, they’re non-matching florals, which means they’re clashing, no? I guess it doesn’t really matter, since that didn’t deter me from wearing them together 😉
I looooooove that coat. Such a gorgeous color! Speaking of Game of Thrones, I’m just starting to re-read the first in that series, and then I think I’m going to tackle Children of Men. I’ve actually picked up 3 or 4 non-fiction books that you’ve recommended here on the blog and really enjoyed them so far!
That’s awesome! I’m happy to hear that 🙂
Yeah, I was going to say winter is most definitely here in the Midwest US, so I assume it probably is in Canada as well! But mostly I just want to steal your coat because it is so pretty! I’ve never read Olive Kitteridge. Maybe I should add it to my list. I’m reading Neil Patrick Harris’s autobiography right now and it is pretty fun. But it’s supposed to be a Choose Your Own Adventure book, and I’m just reading it straight through, like a total cheater.
