wearing lately: midi-November

We're almost getting beyond mid-November already (how did that happen?!), but we're solidly in midi-November, the season where it's quite useful to have a midi-length on your dress or skirt to add a little extra warmth on top of your tights...

Dressing for nights out in the cold weather is always hard. My go-to for several years has been to add a leather jacket (this one is proving well worth the investment, given how many years I have had it already, and how warm it actually is), but this year's new idea is going for a little more leg coverage. Actually kind of by accident, mostly because I loved this leopard print on a skirt so much and because I loved this stripe pattern on a dress so much - but it all works nicely together to create a chic silhouette and warmer legs.

I've already worn this to the symphony and to a work dinner with Peter, and it just might have to be my Thanksgiving outfit too - with a denim jacket it would be dressed down perfectly (speaking of go-tos!).
