Want to know what is real? What's real is I still haven't done laundry from my weekend getaway to Charleston. What's real was I was super psyched to receive my Gwynnie Bee box so I'd have clean clothing to put on this body and also have cute looks to wear to blogger events I had in the evening this week. What's real is this beret gets a lot of use when taking my kid to school after the gym because it hides sweaty hair. What's real is I decided to incorporate this beret because I used a new shampoo and conditioner and it left my hair limp and sad. And what's real is that I put this dress on in the car after the last shoot because I knew I wouldn't have time later this week to photograph this. I am still catching up from the birthday-palooza that is January and being gone for a few days on travel.
Dress: Junarose via Gwynnie Bee (0X) | Beret: Old, I think originally from Target (similar) | Earrings: Jenny Bird | Bag: ALLSAINTS | Boots: Ros Hommerson (similar) | Tights: Commando 
I forgot I even had this beret until I cleaned out my closet a few weeks ago and found it deep in the depts of my closet under a bunch of shawls and pashimas. Berets are having a "thing" this season, and it's always nice when a trend already is in your closet! More polished than a beanie but just as warm, easy to find at any pricepoint, and does a nice job of being instant Botox by hiding a good portion of your forehead!
Sweater dresses have been my JAM this fall and winter. They're cozy, comfortable, and look chic. I accidentally ordered this sweater dress from Gwynnie Bee in a 0X and it's bigger than I like; I think if I went with the next size down (L) I would have preferred the effect and likely kept the dress for more than one wear. It's extremely soft, thick (no open weave showing off your bra like some sweater dresses - why do they make those anyway?), and didn't get baggy or weird with wear. While I styled it with black opaque tights and tall boots, this dress would also look great with brown, cognac, tan suede, ankle booties, and pumps.
