Winter Formal

Of all the seasons, I think Winter is most formal.  The holidays, the fancy parties, the late candlelit dinners with friends and family.  Because of that, it's the only time I feel comfortable - inspired even - to dress more formal.

And this skirt is one of the most formal items I own.  Plus it's just stunning, extravagant and beautifully made.  I didn't mean to make this an all-black ensemble, it just came together that way.  Now that I think about it though, I can't really imagine it done differently...


I picked up these boots a while ago but it wasn't until after the holidays that I've started sporting them everywhere.  Months ago, Theo made a comment that I used to wear heels more often...  Whether it was a hint or not, I took it as one.

Ah, but there is a reason why we do things.  It's the beginning of the year and I'm already moving forward on my two resolutions - one of them being to feel sexier.  This will be fun to explore, specifically because "sexy" has never been a word I use to describe myself or the way I feel.  Ever.  Sooooo I'd like to see where that goes.  One way I feel sexy is when my husband thinks I'm sexy and that's usually when I'm wearing heels.  So I got heels.

But I got heels that I could actually operate life in.  Thick, city-gripping, leather boot heels.  
Everybody wins!


I so love starting fresh, turning over a new leaf, beginning again - but this new year feels more magical than usual.  I find myself leaping into 2016 with surprising enthusiasm.  More like being catapulted.  Maybe it's the heels :)  


 A blissful, extraordinary, wondrous, happy new year to you!
