LEATHER & LIP GLOSS

We're getting closer to winter, and layering weather is far from over. So on a brisk day recently, I tried layering a few pieces to create a colorful, playful look. I loved the emerald green color of the top and the fun chevron print of the bag. Here's how I put this look together. I paired the green top with a casual denim skirt and black footless tights. Open toed heel sandals were the perfect way to complete the look.  I thought it would be cool to tuck the shirt in for a different look, which made the outfit classy and gave the illusion of a longer body frame. It got beyond brisk at one point, which required me to throw on a light denim jacket. It matched the skirt really well, so the ensemble stayed balanced and put together. The bag had a gold chain strap that could be used, so I mixed things up and wore it on my shoulder.

I still can't believe how hot this summer has been! I haven't had much time to get my legs ready for summer, so I'm spending most of my days in jeans and maxi dresses. Today I stopped by the park in this fun teal leopard print top and tried to enjoy the breeze!   I went with a comfortable pair of jeans that took the look down a notch.   Since this top has a very "open" design, I wore a simple black tank underneath. I wanted to keep the focus of the outfit on the top, so the only jewelry that I wore was a few rings and a small pair of earrings. I straightened my hair to keep things looking classy. I LOVE the open back style of this top, even though I wouldn't wear it by itself. (Maybe 10 years ago I would have.) Still, isn't it super cool (unlike the weather!)? To dress the outfit up, a wore a pair of black heel sandals.  The day was hot, but it was gorgeous! Are you ready for cooler w...

Today was a beautiful day! The sun was shining but there was a breeze, so it was the perfect time for  leggings and a light sweater. I chose to mix things up with a tri-print look, combining three different prints from three different pieces. I started with a bright pink & white argyle sweater that I paired with some cozy, stretchy leggings.    I threw on a black & white fedora, which added a second print to the look. I completed the outfit with a pair of zebra print flats with a pop of pink, giving the ensemble its third and final print. Because of the multiple patterns, I chose not to do any jewelry.  I felt a bit like a female golf player, but I still love me some argyle!

Happy Monday, fashionistas!  I hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful. I had a lovely time reflecting on my many blessings, and stuffing my face with lots of delicious food. Since the weather here was brisk, I decided to wear something comfortable and warm, which resulted in this cozy cardigan ensemble. I wore some light wash skinny jeans and a plain black long sleeved tee. I got cozy in this Long Sleeve Knit Aztec Cardigan and threw an infinity scarf around my neck. This cardigan is really comfortable and easy to wear. And now that I am pregnant, I can continue to wear it for the next several months without worrying that my growing bump will stretch it out. I decided to do some black ankle boots to finish off the look.
