Crazy weather we’ve been having around here. The evening can start out blistering hot, then in a couple of hours, it’s freezing cold. This is how I handled it last night.
I started out with a new dress I picked up at Forever 21. F21 has been doing a great job with providing really nice garments lately. When I first saw this dress, I thought it would look so much nicer if it wasn’t trying so hard. You see, this dress originally came with a gaudy belt. So I removed it. I also wear a rhinestone necklace from Target as a bracelet and a new bracelet from Polytima. The shoes are Ralph Lauren and since this is not the first time they’ve appeared on my blog, closeups can be found elsewhere, if you want to look around.
After a couple of hours, as I predicted, it turned very cold. I was so glad I brought a jacket…
Maybe not the best choice for the dress (but it was something I’ve been wanting to wear), I brought along this Richard Chai shearling I bought last fall. This is the first time I’ve worn it and it won’t be the last. 
I wanted to wear it sooner, but somehow, didn’t manage to do that. It’s hard to tell in my picture, but it’s a rich, dark, forest green.
And finally, I want to show you my new Polytima bracelet. I wasn’t optimistic when I ordered it because I have freakishly small wrists, but it turns out that this bracelet is small enough to fit me. The bracelet reminds me a little of the Tom Binns “faux real” bracelets that I wanted so badly. I wasn’t able to get any of the Binns bracelets because they ran so large (and the metal didn’t seem sturdy enough to bend). I tried the Tom Binns ones on at Last Call about a year ago and they fell right off. The sales guy helping me put them on and wore them while I was there. He looked very lovely in them.
That’s all for now. More soon. — Carole
Mmmh So Beyond the Wheater’s seasonal Whims, I really like the way your pretty polished toes sound Here as a “Fetish-issime common denominator”, AND the way your Dark Heels tend to shape such a sexy “Porcelain High-arched feet twisted by a sulfurous hint of RED” !!!
Hope you’re Well Dear.
à Bientôt, Antoine

That Richard Chai looks stunning, and oh so comfortable! I am envious
And that Polytima bracelet! Gorgeous.
The weather has been incredibly annoying lately. I don’t understand how it was almost 80 one day and then the next I had to pull out my winter coat when heading out to dinner! Last week I had to have the fan on to sleep at night, and last night I actually had to get up to get an extra blanket because I thought my feet my fall off from frostbite otherwise. Sigh. I guess summer is indeed over. On the plus side, this does mean I get to pull out all my boots, coats and tights!
