dress. aa. jacket. h & m. shoes. JS. shades. ray ban.hoodie dress. Yup it's out there.
It definitely gets cold here in Africa ( South Africa ). Which still boggles my mind after living here for over 3 years... I guess you always associate Africa with the blistering heat. But alas it gets cold. Not blizzard cold, but a chill that gets into your bones leaving you with no hope for retaining a normal body temperature. This can be attributed to the fact that our houses do not have central heating (!!!). Craziness, I tell you. So although our winter is only a few months, it is more often than not, warmer outside than inside. Which leaves me bundled 24/7.
But being a Canadian, I will never complain about "winters" here... as I've witnessed snow taller than me and temperatures of -50 degrees celsius. no joke.
Therefore this dress suits me + my bi-coastal winters perfectly.
lucky you! who lives in Africa!!!!
ReplyDeletei wanna go to south africa someday. cold weather sounds much better than living in the tropical in my whole life now. btw, nice outfit (;
