I’ve had a bit of a hard time with the winter, in the fashion/spirt sense.

But it’s New Year’s. Time for a radical shift. Time to sweat the details. Time for resoluteness even in the aftermath of all those abandoned resolutions.

2015 was a layer cake. Not always sweet. Not often savored. But something to bite into.

Now in the midst of the ice and the gray, I deck myself in color and texture and prints. Layered with patagucci and a fur. Ready to face an icy NYE. Ready for anything.
