Snowy Snood

I love the word snood. I have no idea why someone decided that a circular scarf should be called such a thing, but I’m glad they did. IT IS FUN TO SAY -> SNOOD SNOOD SNOOD. But, back in my day, we called circle scarves neck warmers. Did anyone else have a fleece one for playing in the snow?

I got this furry snood (heh) on super sale from Asos. I heart them by the way – sales are great and free shipping, all the way from the UK. The only problem is my debit card always gets rejected (international sale) and my credit card company always calls to ask if it’s fraud. Oh well.

This is me pretending to be happy that it’s snowing. Don’t I look happy? Pained? Probably pained.

Black skirt: American Apparel
Striped turtleneck: Century 21
Gray cardigan: Uniqlo
Boots: L.L. Bean
Burgundy faux fur snood: Asos
Watch: Michael Kors

Ok, I’m a snow hater, but I have to admit, that little snowflake gently resting on my snood is kind of pretty. KIND OF.

I forgot to wear my bag in the shot, but I wanted to include it. I got this Rachel by Rachel Roy bag for Christmas from my sister-in-law and I love it – wear it all the time. Funny thing is I pinned it on pinterest (totally obsessed) and she saw it, so bought it for me. I also saw that she was pinning lots of bags, so we got her a Cole Haan purse. Great minds think alike!

About sweetersalt

Salt = sodium = bad. Sweet = calories = bad. Well, isn't that just a bleak outlook. I firmly believe that without salt and without sweet we all just live in a world of lettuce. Plain lettuce. Fun? No. This blog is about life. Namely, my life. But, not that specific. I myself am simply not that interesting. I live an ordinary life, work an ordinary job and do ordinary things. But... life is all about experiencing that feeling you get when you really, really like something. If you don't feel a little warm in your heart when you walk into a farmer's market or try on a piece of beautiful clothing that fits you perfectly (that just so happens to be a great deal!) then you should probably keep on a' movin' from my little plot of internet. Sweeter salt is my metaphor for the good things in life, sprinkled over everything in moderation. Banana? Kinda boring. Banana smoothie - yum! White tank top? Yawn. Statement necklace layered over said tank - now we're talking! I live in Portland, Maine. I love cooking, eating out, riding my bike and approachable fashion. This blog does not chronicle my every waking moment. This is because you will probably not be entertained by the 10th day in a row that I eat the exact same salad for lunch. It does chronicle a healthy, active, fun-filled, colorful lifestyle, in Portland and beyond. It also covers dogs. Cute ones mostly.

    I got something I pinned on my pinterest board for christmas too! It worked!

    And where are you from that you hate snow so much? I’m from Maryland and I too hate snow. If I didn’t love Maine so damn much, I’d move.
