In Texas we say, “If you don’t like the weather just wait a few minutes and it’ll change.” If you have been in Austin for SXSW this month, you know what I am talking about. Our winter & spring days can take you through the four seasons, in 24 hours.
So, how do you work with your wardrobe in a constantly changing climate? I had to opportunity to discuss just that in the most recent issue of Texas Lifestyle Magazine (check out the full issue here).
Essentially, layers are your best friend. Cool mornings often mean leaving the house bundled-up and then stripping layers throughout the day. Afternoons are perfectly warm. Then, for an evening on the town a dress will do, but bring layers – you’ll need them as the sky darkens and the temperature drops. And Texas layers aren’t like elsewhere. We have our own thang going on! Think glam: fringe, fur, sequins, and boots.
Let me take your for a walk in our wonderland…
