So today, I woke up wanting to wear my version of a 'suit.' Except, I stepped outside and it was freeezing! It knocked all of the cool out of my walk. 

I didn't even want to take pictures. Now, what style blogger do you know that doesn't feel like taking pictures?

So. Yeahh. I swamped out the blazer for a cape and fingerless gloves.
ASOS Military Hooded Cape
J.Crew Slik Camp Shirt
Bebe Liquid Leggings
Gunmetals Lace-Up Booties
H&M Fingerless Gloves
DIMyself Bow Tie Necklace

I could barely even muster up a smile. Smh.
Let me tell you a secret, whenever I can't seem to get it together, I tell myself how Beyonce would have done it-- because I admire her drive.

So in my head, I was telling myself to smile, because Beyonce would have no matter how cold she was. 

You should hear all the crazy writing scenarios I put Beyonce into so it's relatable for me.

I'm going to have to figure something out for when it gets super cold so I 
don't have to do pictures outside :(

And red lipstick would have made these better!

Love your almost really cold weather look. One comment, ASOS has wonderful sales but they seem to sell out of small sizes really fast.

Blogging totally made me start wearing lipstick. Because it just gives an extra something to the pictures when your lips are colored. Kind of obsessed with that cape. So cute. I don't know how I'd fair taking pictures in the cold even with Beyonce as inspiration either. Thank goodness I live in Florida and I'm still in shorts this time of year.

It does, doesn't it?! Lipstick takes pictures up a couple notches.

I'm kind of jealous that you're still in shorts, though.
