Do you know why I hate this time of year? All of the spring collections are launching in stores and meanwhile in D.C., we’re looking at 2 feet of snow this weekend. Sorry to the pretty little sundress I spotted in the mall yesterday, I cannot bring myself to buy you just yet.
Enter one of my favorites shops in town, Refine Boutique. Refine is a really cool boutique and their concept is a little difficult for me to articulate, but I’ll do my best: it’s a super personal shopping experience that’s by appointment only here in the D.C. area. You’ll meet with the owner, Tanya, tell her what you’re looking for, and and she’ll pull some pieces for you. You can also pull whatever pieces you want to try as well! Refine carries brands that are hard to find in the D.C. area and pieces that you won’t spot at your local mall. Tanya is also a genius because she has not started stocking spring items yet. So if you’re like me and are looking for chunky sweaters right now instead of sandals, you’re in luck!
She’ll also come to your home or office for appointments if you’re within 10 miles of her shop in Cathedral Heights. There’s no pressure and no charge if you don’t end up buying something! This is ideal for the D.C. gal on the go!
I love the RM bag! I received one for Christmas and I love it…I use it all the time. I love the sweater too!
This outfit is super chic! I especially love your OTK boots and sweater!
This look is gorgeous! I absolutely love the long sweater & dress combo!

Gosh, I need a service like that in Sacramento! But, I do love shopping on my own! I love the simple black dress with the boots and unique cardigan! I just purchased the OTK boots thanks to you and I’m looking forward to experimenting soon! 😀

I cannot stand shopping at this time of the year for the same reason. Stores at the mall are prepping for spring but it is way too cold to wear sundresses already. You look fabulous, I am seriously OBSESSED with your cute boots!
Love this look on you!!
