November sandals

Today was another unseasonably warm day, yes those are sandals. I thought about wearing booties, but changed my mind when I saw the high of 66°; I see no reason not get as much sandal wear as possible.

Even though it was overcast all day long, that isn't necessarily a bad thing for photos. I feel like a lot of people dismiss the nice even lighting conditions of an overcast day -- just don't accidentally over expose like I always do!

I was trying to remember if last November had any warmer days like this, and I looked at my old outfit posts - I actually wore this dress with bareish legs and arms. Though I'm pretty sure I was colder then.

  6. This dress is super cute with that shirt tied over it. I also am really digging that hat. I clicked on your November 2010 look and I was blown away by that whole ensemble as well.

    xo,

  8. I'm so envious of the unseasonable warmth you lucky, lucky East Coasters have been experiencing - it's been wintery on the West Coast since early September! The fact that you've transitioned this dress for fall but are still wearing sandals makes me seriously envious :) And your stacked bracelets add such a lovely sparkle, especially against the gray skies. I'm so with you on even lighting on overcast days, it may not be as joyful as bright sun but it makes taking photos so much easier!
    xox,

  9. So glad you are still able to wear sandals at this time of the year, I've been savoring the bare leg weather before it leaves.

  10. I was just digging in my archives last night to see what I was wearing around this time last year! I was wondering how much I've changed.

    I like the top worn this way! It looks like an unstructured jacket. I love the colors together, too. They ground this outfit firmly in fall and you can wear the sandals :)

  13. Great colors (and location, for that matter) in these. The warm weather has totally been throwing me, too. Who would think it could be so comfortable after all that early snow? (she says, knowing it's supposed to rain tomorrow!)

  19. I love the way this top looks tied above your skirt. I'm with you on overcast days, nice even lighting is much easier to work with through the camera AND Photoshop afterwards to make it LOOK sunny outside ;)

  22. That hat is such a great wardrobe addition- every time you wear it I think of Helena Bonham Carter in The King's Speech.

  31. I say that it is okay to wear sandals as long as there isn't snow on the ground.

  32. Lucky you, having sandals weather in November! It's nothing but rain, rain, rain here :) I like that you tied your blouse in a knot - it gives the whole look a very summery vibe, which seems appropriate for the spectacular weather you're having.

  41. Way to stick it to the (weather) man with those sandals and bare legs, girl! If it's nice out, why not? And now I have another great idea for wearing that shirt!
