Tuesday, December 20, 2011 Zurich for a Long Wintery Weekend




















































[Jacket and scarf: vintage] [Dress: Zara] [Tights: unknown] [Socks: Gap] [Rainboots: Tretorn] [Purse: Foley and Corinna] [Jewelry: vintage, Omega, own design]

We spent a long weekend in Zurich, Switzrland - a stunning and stunningly expensive place.  The weather reports said it would be below zero and snowing - so I brought my rainboots and the best protection against the cold that I have - this fur jacket and scarf.  Can you tell from this photo taken in front of a chalet that Zurich is beyond picturesque?  Well it is, and more photos to come!

One champagne problem among many: my scarves never stay put, one side is always trailing off behind me when I want it to look neatly disheveled in front of me.  To take care of this problem, I used my grandma's brooch (which is actually a pair of earrings made into a brooch) to keep both ends neatly in place and impervious to the wind.
