So, winter just won't quit here. Yesterday was BRUTALLY cold. Today is only super cold, because the sun is shining. But I want spring, so I pulled out the white jeans. Wearing them with my Pettys and my Vince Camuto pea coat, plus a charcoal wool turtleneck. Happiness factor: High as it goes.
On a sadder note: My local Gap does not carry the mesh sleeve sweater (or doesn't have it yet). BOO.
And worse -- our accommodation in London is no more! We have to find a new place to stay! A pipe burst in the apartment and the electricity is out. They have offered to move us to another apartment hotel but the reviews of that place are not great. Double plus BOO!!

And your outfit is so fresh and crisp. It makes me yearn for colder weather (almost). -

Oh no! Hope you find great accommodation chop-chop!
Canadian Gap is selling the mesh sweater online.

Oh yes, I hear you, the winter here had played a cruel joke. We had an amazing week of real spring, you could smell it in the air - and then we had another snowfall followed by the coldest night temperatures recorded this winter. Plays a bit with one's mind too...
Sorry about the LDN accommodation, I hope it gets sorted soon. -

I know I can order the sweater online, and I will. I just wondered if I could get it for my trip! Plus I wanted to see which size would be best. :-)
Jayne, we are leaving tomorrow!!
We actually weren't going to stay in a hotel, but a small apartment. And we do use the TripAdvisor -- thank you! It has been helpful in the past.

Second, I feel ya on spring! We got another inch of snow on Friday, and we all bundled up today and dodged ice chucks to go for a walk. I just can't take being cooped up anymore!
i know nothing about London, but i hope you find another place ASAP! That is awful news! -

You look fantastic! I hadn't thought (or dared?) to wear my white jeans in sloppy MN, but am looking forward to wearing them overseas. We leave tomorrow! We'll be in London for only a night next Sat - shall I look for you on the streets?! -

So sad to hear the sad news re mesh sweater and accomodations.
Suz - I think you need to order both the small and medium - I know how fussy you are (smiles) and you will need to compare the fit of both before you make your final decision.
Re accomodation - this just means that an even better place is waiting for you and hubs! -

Sarah, I PMd you.
THANK you all for your lovely compliments. I felt 100% fab in this outfit today..um...until I forgot to put my apron on while I was cooking supper and got food all over my sweater. Ah well. Into the wash!

That's too bad about the apartment in London. I hope you an find a suitable replacement in time: it should not be difficult in this low season. I don't know if you used then but I found http://www.vrbo.com very handy for renting apartments for travel. Good luck!

you look awesome, and you've motivated me. If you can wear white in TO, surely I can in Hfx! I have a pile of white jeans here at the moment, and am happy to report 2-3 of them actually fit! Just have to decide on leg style. Or not :).

I think the Petty's really bring this look together -- they're light in color, but substantial in visual weight.
Hope you find a place to land in London quickly!
