Oh, how I hate winter!
The bitter cold, my red frostbitten nose… It is impossible to step out of the house without piling on the layers.
No, I am much more of a springtime girl. But ever since winter set in many months ago, it seems like my summer dresses have only been gathering dust, which is so sad.
In reality, this isn’t quite the case. I know I can’t escape winter, but I am so eager for spring that I’ve decided to pair some of my lighter clothes with warmer pieces.
As long as I don’t catch a cold, this little trick may be just what I need to cure my winter blues!

Dieu que je déteste l’hiver !
Le froid glacial, un nez rouge en plein milieu de la figure … et impossible de sortir dehors sans accumuler les couches.
Moi qui suis plutôt une fille du printemps, vous pouvez immaginer mon déséspoir à voir toutes mes robes d’été prendre la poussière pendant six interminables mois !
Mais la réalité est toute autre, car je suis tout bonnement incappable d’attendre ! Même en plein hiver, je n’hésite pas à porter des vêtements légers avec d’autres pièces plus chaudes.
Tant que je n’attrappe pas de rhume, un tel décalage peut être considéré comme un bon remène face au blues hivernal …

I feel your pain about the weather but I adore the way you mixed the oversized cardigan with a sweet and delicate dress.
Check out my new blog.

I think the pairing of the delicate dress and the chunkier cardigan works really well! Hope it will be warm enough…
Theresa le February 17, 2009 a 8:09 pm . .
I’m dying to wear dresses and cute shoes again! It’s still too nasty here, though.
Eli le February 17, 2009 a 8:11 pm . .
love the double layered socks, so cute
emilie le February 17, 2009 a 8:16 pm . .
you look great! this looks fantastic on you, really. perfect for your shape and everything. you look beautiful, those socks and shoes are so very chloe and very alix and very pretty together. good work!
Shen-Shen le February 17, 2009 a 8:19 pm . .
Oh gosh, I agree! Especially since I still insist on wearing skirts/dresses during the winter.
Caitlin le February 17, 2009 a 8:20 pm . .
Oh Alix. I feel your pain. But Spring will come soon! And until then we will wear bulky sweaters over our floral sundresses!
PS
Every time you blog it makes my day!
Hannah Miller le February 17, 2009 a 8:23 pm . .
The layering is beautiful, and I love the socks it adds great taste! You did an amazing job putting this outfit together!

I am coming to the end of summer in New Zealand and dreading the cold! I just love the summer sunshine. Though seeing all your blogs celebrating summer when it’s winter here really get me through!

ta robe est un vrai poème !

Hopefully that is warm enough so you don’t catch a cold ;) It looks gorgeous though, I love pairing soft chiffons with a chunky cardigan. The layering of the socks is brilliant though! They look so cute with those Chloe Mary-Jane’s! :)

tu es tres jolie. Lovely outfit even in the most wintery weather!
ryder le February 17, 2009 a 9:18 pm . .
you have a very good attitude. i also dislike winter and for me there seems to be no end in sight. i will be so happy to put all the heavy sweaters & coats away. in the meantime i will take inspiration from you and start mixing in spring!
The Burlap Smack le February 17, 2009 a 10:26 pm . .
Good for you! i keep hoping that by wearing sundresses (with tights, sadly) i’ll somehow conjure up the warm weather.
Anna le February 17, 2009 a 10:47 pm . .
I need REALLY thick wool tights and coats if I want to wear a dress in winter.
I love your chunky cardi and your rolled down socks.
Sara le February 17, 2009 a 11:24 pm . .

J’adore les couleurs!! Vivement l’été en effet, un peu de chaleur!
Encore une fois enchantée par tes photos!

moi l’hiver est ma saison préférée, et j’attends tout l’été en me languissant devant mes robes d’hiver pour pouvoir les porter;)
Chloé le February 18, 2009 a 2:04 am . .
Très joli ensemble, tout est bien accordé! Comme quoi on peut se moquer des saisons! =)
Julie le February 18, 2009 a 2:07 am . .

Sylvie le February 18, 2009 a 2:16 am . .
Le haut de cette robe est très original, j’aime beaucoup.
Ce n’est pas vraiment l’endroit pour ça, mais comme je vois que Lila commente ici parfois, je me permets de lui passer un message: ton blog nous manque! Je pense qu’Alix sera d’accord avec moi!
Bonne journée!

I love the dress and the colours are all so pretty together

Arf, copine de nez rouge!
Je sais plus quoi faire pour évitez le déguisement automatique en Coluche. D’ailleurs si quelqu’un a une solution, en dehors de se mettre 3 tonnes de vieux fond de teint… °__°
Sinon toute cette tenue est sublime, la robe, le pull, les chaussures… Je veux les mêmes T__T (mais comment tu marches avec des talons pareils??)
Rach le February 18, 2009 a 2:42 am . .
Wow, this outfit works so well.
Really gorgeous :)
ohphilippa le February 18, 2009 a 2:45 am . .
i love the 2 pairs of socks! a clever way to add colour, texture and most importantly, warmth to an outfit! here’s hoping your wish comes true and your summer dresses chase away the winter blues
Geneviève le February 18, 2009 a 3:16 am . .
Très sweet… mais comment sortir sans collants ?
Pam-modeuse.com le February 18, 2009 a 3:22 am . .
L’hiver est toujours trop long et l’été toujours trop court!
Tès jolie tenu (surtout le décolleté de ta robe) et tout comme toi j’attends les beaux jours!!!

I really love the layered socks… sweet but also sensible! nyc is freezing too and it’s getting to be a bit depressing

amber le February 18, 2009 a 10:30 am . .
oh i agree i can’t resist wearing summery clothes and colors in the winter, i just get so tired of dull and drab – i do the same thing i just layer a jacket or sweater over the top and voila!
Mariana le February 18, 2009 a 10:44 am . .
Je suis absolument amoreuse de ton blog! poésie,élégance et beaucoup d´imagination. Il est tout ce que j´pensais à Paris. C´est une inspiration pour moi.

I love winter, but am quite over it right now. I can’t for Spring. Cool temps, sunny and clear skies. Flowers beginning to poke out from the ground. I can’t wait.
gennie le February 18, 2009 a 2:24 pm . .
the socks with those Chloés are absolutely perfect!!

Monessa le February 18, 2009 a 2:42 pm . .
You look lovely! Your shoes are to die for.
I can’t wait for spring too! The one thinkg I love in winter is snow, but now there is like too much snow in Warsaw :/

J’aime beaucoup ton outfit. J’adore les couleurs. Je deteste l’hiver aussi… oh, on doit attendre pour le printemps… Mais je pense qu’il n’y a pas beaucoup de nege a Paris, j’habite en Pologne et maintenant nous sommes tous ‘walking in the winter wonderland’ ;)
Marieand le February 19, 2009 a 2:50 am . .
Et oui je crois qu’on fait toutes pareil en hiver : une petite robette légère, et plein de superpositions !
heart-in-a-cage le February 19, 2009 a 3:19 am . .
Really beautiful!<3 I still love the Chloé shoes. I don’t know if I ever said it, but I adore your blog. It seems, every time when I visit it, I enter a kind of romantic magical world!<3

Inès le February 19, 2009 a 6:00 am . .
Superbe tenue, une de mes préférées. Tout est parfait. Et les chaussettes avec des talons !!! J’adore.
Je dois aussi avouer que ne plus porter de robes légères en hiver commence à être quelque peu agaçant. Allez bon courage pour tenir jusqu’au printemps :)

Beautiful as always. I would love to have some chilly weather for a change. The tropical weather where I am is making my cardigans languish in my closet, unfortunately. <333

Here in Rio we are having a very hot summer. Sometimes it’s difficult even to walk in the streets. This weekend starts carnival and everything begins to be noisy, coloured and loud. Lovely outfit by the way. I love this Chloé. xoxo

Oh the cutest sock layering, stay warm!
Coco le February 19, 2009 a 1:53 pm . .
Mmmh les chaussettes dans les escarpins, je ne m’en lasse pas ! Et à en croire les premiers défilés entrevus à New york et notamment celui de Marc By Marc Jacobs, je me dis que nous ne sommes pas prêtes de les ranger ces fameuses chausettes !
En effet, si MJ ne hisse pas ses modèles sur une paire de Mary Jane, il se permet de tirer les chaussettes de montagnes hors des bottes afin de faire blouser les pantalons et ça c’est juste bluffant…
Frankie - Swell Vintage le February 20, 2009 a 3:48 am . .
I’m with you – roll on spring! And only you could pull off shoes and socks like that x
