Take two on this snow thing. I’m still in bliss. Heading back to Atlanta today and I know the most I’ll get there is rain. Freezing rain. Doesn’t compare.

Everytime I wear this coat I feel like a superhero. I love the shape of it and I love mixing it with prints and textures. When I threw it on with my vintage leather dress from Imperfect Concepts, I was smitten. I love to see a mix of textures in an outfit especially when it’s in the same color family. It gives it personality and it makes you pay closer attention. Leather + cotton + fur or even studs? (I know the studs thing has been done into the ground, but in small spurts, it can still be good.)

Only a few more weeks until we pick finalists for Cotton’s Road to the Runway. Super jealous someone will win $1440 this week just for entering. After all the Christmas shopping I did this go around that would be nice. Remember, the regional winner (let’s go Southeast!) wins $2500 and a trip to Miami for Cotton’s 24 Hour Runway Show. That’s the time of your life, from The Fabric Of Our Lives.

If you’re not already, follow me on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook for some Christmas photos I didn’t share here. (Santa was good to me.) Follow Cotton on Twitter and Instagram as well. They’re a good time.

How was your Christmas?

  1. My Christmas was FAWESOME! My amazing sister got me some great things, and I’m feeling slightly guilty (slowly getting over it) that the snow held me back from getting her present on time.

    Love the picture without the coat! Perfection. Who did you say your photographer was?

  2. Cute outfit – be great for NYE! & love the snow!

  3. Love the outfit – look would also be good for NYE! Merry Christmas!

  4. That coat is SO good!!!

  5. Your outfit posts just keep getting better, Mattie. You look absolutely fantastic here.

  6. GIRL! I know you are cold, but you are working it in every way. Love that leather dress.

  7. the delayering of the coat, tho!! Showing off the dress, in the snow and making it look like you are warm and toasty despite standing in frigid weather. SKILL! I get it and I’m loving the dedication and commitment to showing off your complete look from head to toe. No matter rain, sleet or snow, the fashion reigns!
