Whatever would entice me to dress entirely in shades of white and tan and head out to the currently slushy streets of this city?  A post on my interpretation of ‘winter white’, of course.  This outfit is a complete contrast to my normal winter uniform of darker colours and I really enjoy how it provides a blank canvas, so to speak - it makes it easy to keep the focus on the fur and metallic gold accessories and a colourful lip.  To keep it interesting I chose each piece in a different texture: fur, wool, denim, suede, and leather.  You may or may not be able to see from the expression in these pictures but today was a bitterly cold and windy day and immediately following this I headed home and layered on some thermals and cuddled up under a blanket to catch up on some episodes of Happy Endings.
