SUMMER TO WINTER: COLORBLOCK YEAR-ROUND. Remember this summer colorblock outfit? I reused most of the pieces and color scheme but made it cold weather-appropriate because spring has sprung back into winter. By throwing on a purple sweater and black faux leather tights underneath, this pairing has become more cozy and a bit more interesting. The leather leggings are more matte in person but they photograph all liquidy. Cool-like. JJ and I explored around the neighborhood for interesting photo locations and we found someone's house that had a cool archway. Hahaha by now I've used all sorts of neighbor's architecture as backgrounds xD Don't tell anyone, but this outfit was from late February (2/28) ... talk about needing to get rid of this backlog of posts!

Dude. My hair was sooo different back then.

Readers - how do you make your summer pairings warm for winter?

old photos or not, this is a cute outfit! i really love the pleated skirt the best. :)

lot of layering is necessary for turning a summer dress into a suitable winter dress, that's all i can say on the matter!!

Cute colorblock remix for a colder season! Great exchange of the sweater and leggings! I'd probably do the same :)

Yay for cool borrowed backdrops.

Color blocking looks awesome. As for the real Clockwork Orange, that book is insanity. I still can't wrap my mind around it and probably never will.
