The only thing better than a blog friend, is a blog friend that turns into a real life friend. 

Well, my blog friend turned real life friend, Jessica of DahilaLynn Lane & I are for serious about creating a Nashville blogger meet up. We have a date & we have a venue, the only thing missing is YOU (psssst, it is going to be awesome!). 

If you are a Nashville (or surrounding area) blogger, please let me know so I can add you to the invite list... you do NOT want to be left out of this one!

For any of you already plugged into a city/regional blogger meet up, what is your favorite part?

Good Morning!

So... I have been muttering under my breath about that silly Groundhog and his prediction for his more Winter, when Nashville has yet to be touched by Winter. I am seriously torn between wanting my taste of a white winter and lusting after the new Spring clothes currently hanging on racks of every shop.

I don't store my clothes away by season, and instead opt to have all of my clothes out at all times. And my winter clothes (down jackets, corduroys, wool sweaters, scarves, etc.) are looking so sad and unloved these days. I am trying to rock my winter weight clothes despite the 50-60 degree temps so they can get the love they deserve!

skirt & blazer (old): J.Crew
blouse: boutique {similar}
heels: Nine West

This velvet blazer is one of my favorites - the cut, the color, the soft velvet fabric are all perfection. I figure the bare legs + Winter weight velvet blazer convey the exact confusion the weather has left me in!

What kind of weather woes are you dealing with?

Rocking Winter weight fabrics despite Spring temps?

P.S. I am trying to teach myself Photoshop... the above pictures are my experiments with "layers" and adjustments... I think I have some more Googling to do before I figure this magic software out!
