Won't Do Me No Good Washing in the River

Living in the South, you would think it would be warm and sunny, and we would all be out and about having fun. And normally you would be right. 

But right now its super cold! And I made the brilliant mistake of trying to go outside to get pictures for this blog. Not smart.  Other places are covered in snow, but here we cancel school just because our roads "might" freeze over for the night (Oh no!)  So I thought I would do a look to show how I use my clothes out of my closet to layer and stay warm(ish) when the weather drastically changes down here (which in Louisiana is very common).

One way to stay warm and look cute while doing so would be to pair a casual flannel with a structured jacket. Using a more structured piece as an outer layer keeps your outfit from looking bulky when you are layering. Second would be to always have a pair of tall boots on hand with those fluffy or snowflake thick socks, seriously, the more colorful the better. You know, the ones your grandmother gave you at Christmas that you looked at, rolled your eyes, and thought, "When will I ever wear these?" You can pair these hideous socks with your tall boots and no one will even know you have them on, also you can thank your Grandmother later!
