Seattle Street Style

Having just moved from a place in the south where people wear College Football T-shirts and cut-off jeans to Church, I am scrambling to find my sense of style here in Seattle. Sure, I have a plethora of scarves, black trousers and maybe a few sweaters, but mostly I packed Maxi-Dresses and strappy Heels!

Uhm… What was I thinking?? I basically went from Summer (80s-90s+) to late Winter (45-55 degrees) in only 24 hours.

About five minutes after I got off the airplane, my Sister (who lives here) asked me where my coat was and I replied: “Uhm, I don’t own a coat.” This is what happens when you live in South Georgia and the Panhandle of Florida for numerous years. Cold Weather? What is that??

Thankfully, Seattle has some Ah-Mazing Thrift Stores and Awesome Street Style for Inspiration!

I have come to the conclusion that I NEED the following items:

Black Leather Jacket, Boots, Skinny Jeans, Cool Sunnies and a Bus Pass!

How to wear White before Memorial Day…

We all know the Age-Old  Rule that you simply CANNOT wear white after Labor Day or before Memorial Day (unless, of course, you are over the age of 65 or under the age of 5, in which case no one will judge you!).

However, living in the south where the weather is 82 degrees in March (like today), I would like to explore the possibilities of wearing white, cream, and ivory in the Spring.

{Romantic White Blouse… which I would pair with jean cutoff shorts and wedges}

And for wearing White AFTER Labor Day….

These are just a few ideas to get me started….

I plan to dust off my short white eyelet skirt and parade around town this weekend!!

WOULD YOU WEAR WHITE BEFORE MEMORIAL DAY… AND HOW???
