snow snow faster! We've finally gotten some snow! It already seems to be melting/turning into a skating rink on the street, but I'm not complaining.
I find that the days between Christmas and New Years take on a curious sense of lethargy. The excitement and lights of Christmas are over, New Years Eve is, for me anyway, a bit of a sparkling afterthought, not requiring a great deal of preparation, but bookending the holiday season. And the days between the two are a time to wear flannel and everything else cozy, to curl up on the couch reading new books and watching old favourite films. I bought this dress last winter but never had a chance to photograph it before spring came. It really is perfect for these cold, snowy, December days.

Snow! What a gorgeous, Christmassy outfit - and I love your pigtail too :D I feel the same about these few days between Christmas and New Year, "blerrrggghhh" pretty much sums it up for me...
I hope you had a lovely Christmas!

I want your snow! I've wanted white Christmas since forever, not that it will ever happen here but one can dream right? ...You have just described my life the last couple of days, staying cozy and doing not much! Adore your dress, so cute! Happy New Year!

Emily, the snow is the perfect backdrop for that dress and your hair in a braid goes so well with the dress. I've been eying a black and white dress with red piping on etsy and seeing yours is motivating me to get it. Your sister is quite the photographer. These are lovely pics. Happy New Year lady!
Oh my....!
Bring a bit of weather to Barcelona pleeeeseeeeee.
Happy new year!!
You look absolutely darling, as usual. I love the happy trim on the dress! I've been thinking about making a purchase from Family Affairs, actually - are you happy with the quality?
Here in California we're lusting after your White Christmas. Great post and best wishes for a very happy and properous New Year . . .
Yeah, NYE is kind of whatever for me, too. I'm at home for it every year and there's never anything really exciting going on, so why stress about it?
Ah what lovely snow I'm jealous! The dress is beautiful too it really suits you

XOXO

@Alicia: I'm very happy with the quality. The flannel is soft and cozy and I love both the creativity of the red appliqués, and the fact that they're corduroy. My one tiny complaint is that I find the dress a difficult length for us mortals, but looking at the pictures, I think maybe it's just a case of getting used to it!
Your braid looks so pretty & I love the print of your dress! Also now following. :)
what a great dress, emily! i love it....especially paired with your cute polka dot tights....just perfect.
happy new year!

*screams* It is snowing. LOVE the styling of this outfit.
Happy New Year, Dolly.
thats awesome you got snow! I'm still waiting, but alas!
great shoes and outfit : ) happy new year! xx
Ha ha, I love how everyone goes crazy for the snow! It does make the Holidays extra magical and makes for the coolest pictures... then we've had enough and it should go away, he he! We've had snow non stop for a month here and it's getting insanely cold, makes me wish I could visit you in Barcelona this winter!
I adore the plaid dress, I think that's one thing that is missing from my closet and yours is a great inspiration (love the red details so so much!).
All my very best wishes to you and your family for the New Year!!!

So beautiful! I totally wish that it could snow in the Bay Area, but alas, it won't... the pictures are gorgeous, and you look amazing in them. Have a great new years!

Between Christmas and New Years I feel very lethargic, too. I lose track of what day is what and of time, too. Part of Christmas break, I guess.
I love the contrast of that dress against the falling snow. I love plaid. :)

you look so gorgeous
What a fine dress, Emily! It fits so well into your wardrobe and, might I add, looks great with your polka dot tights.
And snow! We're still waiting for some down here. The whole onset of winter and the holiday season has felt off due to the lack of consistent snow.
gurl you be looking adorable and I really wish we had snow here :( but I love NYE so THAT'S WHERE WE DIFFER
:D
You make snow look its best (especially since I don't really miss it).
The red detailing is the bomb! Awesome :)
