Or in plain English, a weather report, illustrated by shoes. (Yes, we’re still bummed over this nor’easter business. No, we won’t shut up.)

The weather as it is:

nimbus1.jpg nimbus2.jpg

Nimbus flats from Anthropologie, $130. Dark, doodly, gloomy, stormy sky.

How we’d like the sky to be:

light-blue.jpg light-blue2.jpg

Private balcony flats from Anthropologie, $150. Bright light-blue sky with a wisp of a white cloud whisked away by the gentle breeze.

Is that too much to ask?
