Jamaica Plain's Black Swan

SO Im dieing to see the movie Black Swan. I suck for not having gone to see it yet. Its been a matter of time and money. Lately Ive been feeling the cold weather blues so usually something that really makes me feel better is getting dressed up and going out. Well I put together a really sweet outfit and finally got to showcase my amazing black knitted poncho. Well I think its a poncho at least.

I paid $4 for the black knitted poncho at Boomerangs. I LOVE it! It keeps me sooooo warm. I sometimes fall asleep in it because Im so warm and comfy.

Now its still not TO cold here yet... so I managed to take a few pictures with out my cover up on. As soon as I took it off I realized it was still cold haha. Im still a Florida girl at heart!

That leather skirt was a great goodwill find and I only paid $4 for it. Its not as easy to go thrifting in Boston than it was in Florida, so when I find something its a big deal.

That afternoon I went to Newbury street to do some shopping. It was the first time I had walked around Boston in heels. Mind you they were wedges, but still heels. That was a big deal to me, because you have to walk around so much up here and in FL you just drive everywhere. Aside from having some cold weather blues... its started to snow finally! I took these right before it started to snow and now Jamaica Plain is cover in white :-) it is sooooo cool. There are snowflakes outside my window. Ive been working as usual and trying to get things done when I can. I ended up picking up some extra shifts this week... so I havent had any time to go Christmas shopping. I miss my family back home but I will manage through the holidays.

I hope everyone got all their Christmas shopping done, Im such a slacker. I leave you with Jamaica Plain's Black Swan!

Xoxo everyone!

I love this outfit (especially the poncho and wedges) and absolutely adore the photos! You lucked out on a mild winter so far, but get ready... The first snow if just the beginning...
