There are days like these where I wonder how people wear dresses in extreme cold. Today is probably one of the coldest days all winter (I can see my breath, that is pretty darn cold to me) and I had a hard time taking pictures. I was trying to look happy but all I could think about was going back inside and enjoying some gingerbread coffee!
I got this dress from a swap group through Facebook. It's a little overwhelming because there are so many girls with tons of items they want to swap (for keeps), but I've received a few gems through it. It also gives me a chance to get rid of some things to people who want them. But to be honest, I should probably stop shopping and swapping for awhile. With all my Christmas gifts, birthday presents, and gift cards, I'm set for a long time!

You have such adorable dresses! I don't do too bad in dresses usually - for some reason my legs don't get cold as easily as other bits, probably from prolonged exposure :) Wish I could wear heels that high! Well, I could, but I'm 6' already and might break a foot again hahah!
This is a great dress, i really love the colour of it on you, perfect with the leather jacket and studded heels. I am just so used to the cold now, I still freeze my buns off sometimes but it seems worth it xJennaD
hey pretty ashley! i don't like how cold it's been in texas lately either. it's supposed to be warm in southern california too, says the girl who was born there. we aren't acclimated to this winter business. ;)
Modcloth style gallery is fooling me. I am hoping the dog dress pops up on your blog soon! I am wearing the same one right now :D That dress is totally adorable too - how awesome!
Love the leather jacket with this dress! I'm about to give up and die due to the cold too! It was 0 degrees when I left my house this morning!! -Jessi haircutandgeneralattitude.blogspot.com
AND you took your jacket off! You are brave! Still, I'm wishing I were there right at this particular moment - it's too hot to function in the southern hemisphere today. as i type, my other hand is holding a spray bottle full of ice water which I periodically have to cover myself with just to not overheat, hahaha. Also, looking good ;)
I just came across your blog and I am loving your style! This is such a cute and feminine dress, and the leather jacket and spiked heels add just the right amount of edge. Can't wait to see more outfits!
i got a bunch of gift card too and am kinda baffled with myself every time i shop without them. we clearly have a problem haha. and i love this outfit- i'm glad you braved the cold to snap pictures of it! the spike details in your heels totally made this whole look
Oh Ashley, how do you look so adorable every time? Cold or no cold (I'm trying to tell myself that it's never cold here so I don't die when I go back to the Midwest. I'm not really succeeding), this dress is lovely! By the way, I'm here for another week so we must figure something out with Erica!
Ha ha. It is really difficult to step out in dis weather.
ReplyDeleteBut still,all the pictures are stunning!
