Last week, we had a nice cold spat, and the morning of this outfit, it was actually in the fifties! I had to take advantage of the cold while I had it, and I’d been itching to try a new layering technique inspired by Lucky.
This was just the right amount of warmth for the morning. I love the look of the scarf and cardi being belted together. This day also gave me a chance to wear my knee high boots for the first time. I wish we had more cold days in Florida.
Unfortunately, my place of work had the heater on full blast, and all this was way too warm for indoors. Luckily, I devised a clever remix to make this outfit work. I wore the scarf as a shawl, and then belted it around the waist. Chic and practical.

I love this! I saw this idea in Lucky as well (and on the Academichic ladies) and wanted to try it but haven’t yet. It looks fabulous on you!
The belted scarf/cardi combo looks so fresh.
I love both belted looks – so cute. Definitely an idea I am going to steal
ok you rock!! love both ideas and hmm might have to try these cause its always a totally different temp inside the office like yours too
What a perfect way to get a very close look but just removing a layer. You look great!
Diana, I LOVE this outfit! The tights, the sweater, the belt– all so, so cute. You’ve definitely given me some inspiration– I’ve been feeling like I’ve hit a wall getting back into dressing for winter and this is so chic & fun!
Love it! And I am sooooooo ready for cooler weather…we keep getting these little days or bursts of cool weather, but nothing that lasts. Love the boots too!
That is a wonderful idea. Have to try that belted look.
I love the red tights – so cheerful!
It is adorable that you call that cold. What a great color combination; I kind of want to eat it.
I tried the belted scarf look.
Am linking my post to you.

[...] Diana wore her shawl in a very different way, a few days back and I was itching to try it. I have a lot of shawls. I like buying and looking at them. I seldom wear one now because of the fact I always had a child on my hip and b) it almost always annoys me and gets into my way. But does it stop me from buying them. Uhmm No. No make up [...]
