  Just some fun and pretty ways to add a touch of cream to your fall/winter wardrobe. I'm not one to gravitate towards the lighter tones through the 'rough months' (what I refer to as the interval November-April), so I thought I'd challenge my self to choose a few ways I could see myself wear cream; easy-peasy!
  
  

no need to fear

blazer-ZARA; romper-Promod; sandals-Nine West; clutch-vintage; watch-gifted; necklace-XXI

It took me a little while to warm up to rompers, but their practicallity has officially won me over. I love a good summer breeze every now and then, and I also tend to dress as light as possible during the (awesome) summer months, BUT those two don't always mix well. There's garments in my closet that I constantly have to hold down as I walk down a breezy street, from fear that my undies will be exposed. That's why rompers are ideal summer wear: light and airy, and the shorts-like bottoms are perfect for those gorgeous summer breezes :)

All that being said, this color is really not my most favorite, but I stepped a little out of my comfort zone and chanced it. (it was also only available in this color and on sale...so really, there wasn't much of a debate)

B-day lunch date

dress-H&M; cardigan-H&M; sandals-XXI; clutch-thrifted; watch-gifted belt-H&M

I wasn't 100% sure about this outfit as I put it together, and my bf even cracked a few jokes about me checking it by sitting down and stuff, but all in all, it was a great choice for the perfect Birthday lunch date :) I wish I had taken pictures of the food we had too, because it was absolutely amazing (but then again, I wouldn't want to make you all drool ;PP) I will say this, a sweet potato/coconut with citrus and pineapple soup is probably the most genius combination of ingredients I've tasted!

p.s.- also, 2nd time we've taken pictures outdoors, and this time in a residential area! Really stepping things up, huh?! (I will admit I was sort of tense that someone would come out of their homes and ask us what we're doing...because explaining outfit shots is no easy task) We did get a few pass by-ers give us confused looks, but that's all part of the fun, right? ;)
