A Tip For Lifting The Winter Doldrums
Winter is cold, and the days are shorter, which limits the amount of sunlight we can enjoy. That is a formula for the blahs to set in. These are the days when you feel sluggish and don’t want to do much of anything. Here is a tip for lifting the winter doldrums, but you can use it any time of the year.
Add A Bright Color to Fight the Winter Doldrums
You know that I love being comfortable, but I also want to look stylish. This Blue Frost Cotton Cashmere Dolman Sweater is a trifecta since it is comfy and stylish and can also help to lift you out of the winter doldrums. This gorgeous turquoise color is bright and cheerful, and it makes me smile when I look at it. Color is a wonderful way to lift your spirits at any time of the year, but it is especially important when the winter doldrums set in.
You can almost feel the softness when looking at this photo. The sweater is lightweight but not see-through, and it feels great against my skin. There are several colors available in this sweater, and I had a hard time deciding between this beautiful blue color and camel. I think the camel one would look great with jeans, black or white, and it is a great neutral. This sweater is on sale (at least it was last night when I was writing this post) for $50 off! I’m wearing my usual size 1, and it fits great.
Here is a photo that lets you gauge the length of the sweater.
These earrings have sold out, but this clip-on pair would also look great. For those who prefer pierced earrings, you can try this pair.
I added the Agate Beaded Stretch Bracelet with the cute gold tassel detail. I’ve become a fan of stretch bracelets since I don’t have to worry about a clasp. Here are a few more bracelets that you might like.
Jeans aren’t comfortable most of the time, especially if you have to do a lot of sitting. I always opt for something more comfortable when driving or sitting for long periods, and these Cotton-Cashmere Joggers Pants are just the ticket. They have a drawstring waist, pockets, and are soft and comfy. What more could you ask for??? I’m wearing my usual size 1, and they fit nicely. They are also on sale at $40 off!
Deep Teal is my “color of the moment,” and I keep buying clothing in this shade. When I saw these Suede Fur Lined Ballet Slides, I decided I needed to add this color to my shoes, also. They are super soft, and I love the deep rich color, but the fur does make them a little slippery. It might take me a bit to adjust to them, but I love how they feel, so I’m going to give them a chance. I’m wearing my usual size 9, and they fit great.
Chico’s is having a great sale (at least they were last night 😝), so I’ll link to some picks that are a great deal.

The incorrect words of a song is so funny and yet so true. How many times have I been in the same situation, but now we can google the words. LOL I love the teal ballet slippers, I especially like the pointy ones vs the round toe. I am wearing a monochome outfit today, I always thought I had to wear different colors, but today I am wearing all rust casual outfit from Old Navy.
