Sweater or Sweaty?

Oh this crazy California weather!!!Over the long weekend, it was frigid by our standards (low 60s) and yesterday it was 82. Well, I am going to be contrary and wear winter clothes anyway.

This dark looking outfit is actually a sweater dress by  Mossimo in tones of black, grey, light grey and maroon. On top, I have a wool safari style jacket by Guess. Let's get a better look at the dress.


I have a similar dress made by Calvin Klein, and the difference in quality is huge. The CK dress is much thicker knit. But this one is cute and flattering. This dress also gave me a chance to bust out a very old but favorite pair of boots.


These awesome purple tooled leather boots are Donna Karan. They are one of the very first nice things I ever bought, so that makes them about 25 years old. But obviously, they aren't worn everyday - maybe 5 times a year. For my jewelry, I went with silver, garnets, and pearls. I wore my matching garnet blossom necklace and earring set.


On my left hand, I have a silver Brighton bracelet and a mobe pearl ring.

On my right, a garnet/opal bracelet and a South Sea pearl ring.

I am comfy so far, but we'll see if I get overheated and sweaty later on when the temperature is at its highest. Today, as always on Wednesday, I am linking up with www.thepleatedpoppy.com
for What I Wore. There are always a bunch of cute links there. See you all later!!!
