We got a sudden burst of cold weather today (as in temperatures in the 50s) and I had to bring out some warmer items again! I realized when I posted my February budget recap that I hadn’t been giving these paperbag pants enough love, so I decided to do another look with them. And since I wasn’t about to let go of that spring vibe, I paired the dark pants with some bright reds and oranges! The scarf was actually a much-needed addition as this shirt somehow is now way too low cut for me (was it always this way? how did I wear this shirt in the past?? i’m stumped).
Anyways, I’m off to bed early. Taxes are calling my name tomorrow and I’m gonna need all the energy I can get to to finish them off! (i’m going to get the better of my procrastination this time. hopefully…)

I wonder because it's tucked in if it's maybe being pulled down. That is so strange that it got low cut. Good luck with your taxes!

I just wear tanks underneath any tees that are too low. Maybe you had pair it with other shirts and just not noticed it? Scarves are a great way to cover up too. Good luck with your taxes!

Yes, you can buy from the Etsy store. I think it's only $25, so very reasonable!

You are such a power house with those shoes. I am quite impressed with your ability to sport them. I have to have a huge heel so I can tolerate them the whole day long. You look amazing. This is a good look for the sudden cold weather.

I really love that scarf – it's the perfect finishing touch to the ensemble. We've also gotten a cold blast over here so I empathize 🙂 Good luck with your taxes!
Lyddiegal says
I just love your rust colored cowl! It accents the red perfectly. I hate it when it starts to feel like spring for a few days only to get a cold snap again.
spring needs to hurry up!
