Outfit: Marooned

I've loved the color for years and years. Is that like saying, I've loved that band since before they were cool? Anyway, I find this color so rich and vibrant and it's a great color for fall. It's reminiscent of some of the leaves that have fallen. I also think this hue looks great on everyone.

Now that it's getting colder, I like the idea of wearing dresses, but not actually wearing them. I prefer the cold to the heat, but I'm still a bit of a chicken when it comes to putting on a dress in the winter. But it boring being limited to only jeans, so I'm going to try and wear dresses more. I'm going to double up on tights, wear knee high socks, whatever has got to be done. Even if I have to freeze my butt off (literally). 
Dress: Kohls {similar, similar} | Necklace: American Eagle {similar, similar} | Boots: Aeropostale


Do you like the color maroon? 
Or burgundy or wine or what you want to call it?

    If I could make my closet consist solely of maroon, I would. And grey. And mauve. Then I'm a happy camper.

    This color is so pretty on you! I am the same way...I prefer to wear pants/jeans once it gets cold since my legs are always freezing!

    As a girl that loves her dresses and can only applaud your decision! ^^ I LOVE dresses (I have 42, yes.) and with a good pair of tights, I think they can also work well in Winter too (unless you live in Alaska than maybe you should stick with pants). This burgundy number is a perfect start, you look great in it ^^ I love burgundy too, but don't yet have a dress in the color. Next on my list? xo

    this color looks beautiful on you! when I wear dresses in the winter, I wear tights, and then thick knee-high socks on top of them, and then boots! and then bundle up on sweaters/coats. but I can't just stop wearing my dresses in the winter! haha

    This is such a perfect color for fall! I think maroons and greens are fabulous for bringing out the tones in the trees. TOo bad it is starting to SNOW!!!

    I would be a happy camper if my whole closet was maroon, all shades of purple, navy, and black. Maybe pink now and then.
