Layered...

There is this trend in blogger world to not only layer, but to do so with a buttoned down/ sweater combo. I thought today was a good day to test my chops on the look. 

It was soooo cold in the office yesterday. I despise being too cold so I took special precautions.

I looked up the weather and  saw the temps were going to drop as low as the 30s.

I was like Tamar from the Braxtons,

I wanted to be "Prauh-Pared" (prepared)!

This Is a look which was derived from a mental scan of my closet.

I’m very analytical, which spills over to my fashion sense.

I was not only able to keep warm throughout the day, but I was also fashionable.

I am a spring-time dresser by preference, but with a couple of tweaks to my wardrobe, I feel I am getting the hang of winter outfits.

Which brings me to these boots as one of the new editions to my wardrobe! I have coveted some wide-calf coniac-colored boots for some time now.

I adore how they are wide enough to leave a small gap between my calves and the boot.  To me that gives a slenderizing effect and makes the fit resemble that of people without big calves.

I felt so warm, cozy and put together today!
