Snow Day!

snow day outfit

We had a snow day here in Dallas as a result of a horrid ice storm last night. In the two years that I have lived here it is safe to say that this is the worst weather I have seen in Texas. The roads were horrible so I choose to stay off until the temperatures warmed up. Now things are looking great and all is well. While it was grim outside I kept warm inside and wore a darling little combination in order to do so. I know, I know, I sort of was that girl all decked out in Burberry, however I will admit it was tasteful. My coat is actually a much lighter shade of blue, but I could not find a photo. It looked wonderful with dark wash denim and I topped the outfit off my old school Burberry rain boots, my Burberry pashmina and a headband from Calista Cove. I hope you were able to stay warm in style today as well. It sure helps beat the negative bad weather vibes!

This has to be the most snow days across the country that I've ever seen. Hopefully the colds/flus won't follow.

This kids timing is a little off

You were definitely cuter than I was on this snow day!

I did venture out around 11 to get my hair cut and colored (only because it really needed it and it's so hard to reschedule). I thought Central would be the safest route because it would have been sanded as well as heavily traveled. WRONG! I almost got in a wreck just getting on! The entrance ramp was a complete sheet of ice. Yikes. There were several wrecks up ahead so I exited and went Hillcrest instead which was much better.

Stay warm!

Loved your outfit. I can't believe that you guys have had such bad weather. I too have enjoyed shopping for the Pink Swap so much. I can't wait to send my package and also see what I get. Thanks for co-ordinating it!
Stay warm and have a great day.
Love & blessings in NC!

My co-worker actually got delayed in the Dallas Fort Worth airport today for several hours - said he heard there were like 57 car wrecks this morning due to the weather - Be Careful and Stay Warm!!!
