Don't mind the rain

Is it weird that I photoshopped the rain drops off my bag? It was a very anti-summer day the Saturday afternoon I wore this outfit on a lunch date in New Haven with Meg and Christine. Freezing cold* and rainy, I took my cardigan off for these photos alone, and then proceeded to start my lunch off with a hot bowl of soup.

While we could have asked for better weather, it was a long overdue lunch date and it was lovely to chat and catch up with some of my favorite bloggers after such a long time.

And I suppose that Meg and I are no strangers to faking it through an outfit shoot and pretending the inclement weather isn't bothering us in the least.

*Freezing cold is a relative term. In the winter it means 32° and below, in the summer it means 65° and below.

    I love this skirt- and your hair is slayin' it here. Also, not weird at all you photoshopped the raindrops off the bag! I would've totally done the same. :)

    I know exactly what you mean, anything below 65' would be considered freezing in July! Love the skirt, such a cute ootd for girls out. -R

    I was just thinking that the other day when it was 65 and raining--it's freezing! But if it were December, I'd be out in bare legs and celebrating! LOL I love your skirt, sandals and bangle!

    My range of comfort is really only a few degrees (maybe 79-81F). This summer has been so cool and rainy. I hope we have a better fall. This is the perfect outfit for a get together with the girls

    I totally agree, cold is relative! Summer needs to me 80 degrees or more. I love your striped, fitted skirt -- pairing it with black really makes it stand out!

    I love that turquoise necklace even more today than I did yesterday. There's something about the way the turquoise shade pops with the blue and gold stripes in your skirt - which, frankly, is a piece that I also love but that I don't think I've ever loved better than in this look. It's mid work day at this point so I don't have a ton of original thoughts to say, but suffice to say that this outfit will no doubt be my favourite of the week.

    Summer weather here has been crazy too--right now it's super hot but we've had so much rain and strange chilly weather. I love this look though, you know I'm a stripes fan :)

    I wished I knew how to use photoshop to take out things I don't like. Very pretty skirt and sound like you had a nice time with some blogging friends.

    I love your skirt! And oh, I feel your pain with faking it through the elements. I hate when I have to photoshop my nose to be a normal colour instead of being purple from the cold!

    Sincerely,

    You're hair looks amazing! You're so right though about "cold" being a relative term depending on the season... We can all start bundling up for the fall when it gets to 50 degrees :)

    You may have been chilly, but you still look absolutely gorgeous in these photos! (How come my hair can't hold a beautiful curl like that?! ;-) )

    Thanks for clearing up that freezing thing. I love that, because anytime it rains and gets slightly cooler, I find myself chilly. Bodies are weird things, man.

    That bracelet is really catching my eye--I adore bracelets that are open like that. They're so adjustable and have a hint of an Egyptian look to them!
