Double Duty Dress

Beautiful city streets are in short supply in this part of the world.  This particular street happens to be a huge tourist shopping spot, so of course they want to make it look nice, but I do wish that there were more close to home in the way of well cared for streets and towns.  
As it is I typically have to drive 30 to 60 minutes to find anything remotely this lovely and this little shopping dive is even further away which is why I always bring a stack of outfits to wear and photograph while I'm here.
I love visiting here in autumn.  The tourists are mostly gone for the year and the streets are a little quieter, and something about these autumn rainstorms always make the world look a little more colorful after they've gone and washed away summer's dust.
It's chilly today, a crisp autumn chill, but it seems like such a waste to spend three quarters of the year covered up in a coat.  This little wool dress does double duty being warm and thick like a coat, and being a stylish dress I want to show off.
I don't know why it's taken me so long to think of this; I'm rarely ever too warm even when I'm inside because it seems like everywhere I go but my own home likes to keep the a/c on until December and then turn it back on again in February.  I pretty much layer up year round. Maybe now I won't have to.
