Last weekend I had the pleasure of witnessing my dear friend Gina Blancarte marry her dear man, Brian Millard on a very soggy day in San Francisco. Fortunately – just in time for their nuptials, the clouds parted, the rains stopped, and there was a little sunshine. Unfortunately, as evidenced by my terrible posing above, it was still freezing. How the hell am I going to last in London?? L.A has made me soft!

I wore this amazing BCBG Dress – I'd fallen in love with it but was anxious about making the plunge – but the lovely folks at BCBG sent me a gift cetificate for Christmas – so it softened the blow somewhat – and I am very in love with it (and it'll be an awesome addition to my London Fashion Week wardrobe!)

I paired the dress with my vintage faux fur coat, one of my favourite Antoni and Alison purses and a pair of Topshop ballet flats that were an eerily perfect match and a totally unrelated purchase weeks before the dress. I love it when my mind makes subliminal sartorial decisions for me.
