It’s not Spring

black dressMarch has always been my least favorite month– mostly because March is such a little trickster. Usually, “the first day of Spring” is in March. In your mind you may think — oh, warm weather will start in March! This idea is 100% false. March goes in like a lion and out like one too. Here in the city, it has snowed twice and remained a solid 46 degrees. Blergh.

This black dress I am wearing has been sitting, long forgotten, in my closet. I don’t like to wear it because it is so unforgiving — and almost impossible to get on and off. This dress is the only bodycon dress in the history of the world that has absolutely zero stretch or give and one tiny zipper along the side to “help” you get it on and off. Invariably, I get the dress halfway on or halfway off and it gets completely stuck around my shoulders or lady lumps and I have to call in for assistance.

As long as I don’t eat anything all day but water and the souls of small children, and have an assistant to get me in and out of this dress, it is actually pretty cute. I especially love the leather detailing around the collar.

Little Black Dress and a Pickup Truck

little black dress

Husband and I are here in sunny Virginia for Christmas. I must say that Virginia is quite a photogenic state. This pickup is amazing, right? I spotted it as soon as we arrived at my parent’s home and I knew I had to take photos with it. Luckily, I had this necklace to match it.

Also, how was everyone’s Christmas?
