Sweater Weather... Well, kind of!

 It’s officially sweater weather! Well, kind of.

For some places it’s definitely time to break out those sweaters and put away your summer clothes. For those of us that aren’t quite there yet it’s definitely coming soon!

I picked up this amazing chunky sweater last week from one of my local boutiques and thought I would share it and some other great options with y’all! (If you live somewhere hot I totally get not even being able to think about sweaters right now! I promise you though if you don’t get them now all the good ones will be sold out! I feel like things are selling out faster than ever because I can tell you from working in retail Covid has definitely affected supply chains.)

I kept things simple today with jeans and a cute pair of booties. I feel like the pattern of the sweater and color is what I really wanted to stand out. It's also super cozy and warm!

See below for some other great picks!

Love this Free People sweater! It's currently in my cart! 

This cardigan looks so cozy & soft! I also LOVE the color combo!

I love a good basic option. This one comes in a ton of color options.

The boxy fit of this one really speaks to me! haha. I like how they paired it with a skirt to balance it out.

I love the colors on this option.

That's all I've got for tonight. I will make a graphic and add more tomorrow. I have a serious migraine and it's a miracle I even got this post up! 

Hope you all have a wonderful week and thanks for stopping by! Happy sweater shopping! 

Leopard Skirt

It's been a solid week and a half since I shared my favorite print with y'all so here I am. Today I have a great leopard print skirt to show you.  I'm sure y'all are so so sick of seeing leopard, but I just can't help myself. It's everywhere and I want it all! 

This skirt is from my favorite boutique and I was with her when she bought it at market. As soon as she bought it I knew I was going to have to have it. I love that you can style it a couple different ways. The first thing that comes to mind for me is a black tank or long sleeve. However, it's nice to challenge yourself and think of something different from time to time. This sweater was the second thing that came to mind. I've had it for years and love to style it with skirts. (See here from 3 years ago.)

This is a great fall outfit in my book. It would also be a great option for Thanksgiving. It's a little dressy but not too over the top. The skirt also has elastic in the back so you won't feel constricted after all the yummy food! 

Hurry and grab one before it sells out!

2019 Outfit 1

First outfit post of 2019!! Woohoo!

As you can clearly see from the Christmas tree I shot this outfit a while ago. It's totally fine though, because it's a great outfit to get you through the rest of winter. (aka January & February)

This sweater is really old from Forever 21 but it's so warm! I've seriously had this thing for 6+ years! If I throw a tank on under it I don't even need a jacket!! Even though my sweater is really old I have linked a bunch of good options for y'all below! I paired it with my Spanx leggings and heeled booties for a look that can work for the office or drinks on a Friday night. I know I say this every time, but if you don't have the Spanx leggings you seriously need them in your life. They are that good!

How is everyone's 2019 going so far? Are you sticking to all your goals? Have you completely accomplished any of said goals yet? (If so, you are a Rockstar and please tell me how you did it so fast!) Hope y'all have a great week! Thanks for reading!  

Turkey Day Dress

I keep talking about how close Thanksgiving is and this weekend I realized I haven’t shared any Thanksgiving outfit inspo! What the heck is wrong with me? Don’t worry though, I finally shot a great Thanksgiving look this weekend. I also went through recent posts and rounded up some other great options depending on your families Thanksgiving style.

Ok, now before you think I’m crazy for showing you a form fitting dress for Thanksgiving (one of the biggest eating days of the year) hear me out! This dress is form fitting but it’s so comfortable and stretchy it won’t make you feel constricted at all. Plus the ruching is really flattering and will hide any potential food babies. I paired it with OTK boots and this cozy sweater for a nice fall look. This sweater is also great for hiding food babies or snuggling on the couch for a nice turkey induced coma.

Since these boots have a chunky not too high heel this could easily take you into black Friday shopping as well. I’m more of a leggings and t-shirt kind of gal for that mess, but sometimes things come up last minute.

I’ve linked some recent blog posts here, here, & here that would make great Thanksgiving outfits as well!

Dress: Nordstrom | Sweater: Topshop | Boots: Sam Edelman | Sunnies: Sonix (similar here & here) | Lipstick: Le Marc Lip Crème Lipstick in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

What are your plans for the big day? Do you have any traditions? I would love to hear about them in the comments.

J and I are running a turkey trot in the morning, (I can’t believe I convinced him to sign up.) then heading to a big block party at a local bar (sounds weird but it’s a huge tradition around here) and after that finally heading to J’s parents to cook and spend the day. I also think I’ll be doing some black Friday shopping this year. The past few year’s I’ve gone out in the afternoon just to check some things out, but J has his eye on a new TV this year so looks like we will be heading to the stores early. Not gonna lie… I kinda love black Friday.

Chunky Sweater

Ok… I know I’ve said this before, however, I think this is my favorite outfit I’ve shared in a while. It’s definitely going to be my fall uniform because I love all of these pieces so much!

Let’s start with the sweater! I picked this up during the Nsale and I am so glad I did. I was immediately drawn to how oversize and chunky it is. It’s a great layering piece for fall; and will keep you warm and cozy all season long! I bought it in two colors, and officially want the other three it comes in. I promise you it’s that good. I think I may get the rose next.

Now let’s talk about these shoes!! I saw an extremely similar pair in the Nsale catalog and fell in love. The price however (even during the sale) was not something I could justify. When I saw these babies at Target under $30 I didn’t even think twice before clicking “add to cart”. I love how they add a little pop to this outfit but, not too much. If you’ve followed me for a while, you also know I’m drawn to pastels for winter; so these will be perfect in December and January for my wardrobe.

Did I mention they are super comfortable? The lower heel makes them wearable all day and all night! (I’ve been loving the lower heel trend lately and my feet are definitely loving it too!)

 As much as I love this outfit it will be a while before I can wear it. It is still 90+ degrees down here in FL. I say it every year but I live in the wrong state! This gal loves cooler temps, and I feel like they are never coming. How is it where you live? Have you gotten a taste of fall yet?
