What are the basics I cannot live without? The pieces I throw on when I need an instant cool factor without effort? You know those days when nothing in your closet is cutting it but you need a mood boost? For me, it is this exact look. A white tee, my favorite jeans, edgy but comfy flat buckle boots, and my leather jacket. Striped down to it’s most basic form, this is jeans and a t-shirt. Does it look or…
Neutral Leopard Sweater Styled Two Ways
December 28, 2018How cute is this neutral leopard sweater? It is soft and cozy with the balloon style sleeves. I wore it to work recently with my burgundy velvet jeans and knee high flat boots (see below). It was perfect! Today I am styling it a little more casually with white jeans and over the knee boots. I love how the more neutral leopard print isn’t quite as loud as some leopards. I feel like this makes it really versatile. It truly…
Easy Sweater and Boots Combo
December 21, 2018My no fail winter outfit is an easy sweater and boots combo. I am loving this relaxed fit green and white striped sweater paired with these blogger cult favorite over the knee boots from Miss Golightly.

December 19, 2018Let’s talk about the best Free People thermal tops and why I love them. You might be wondering what inspired this post.

3 Reasons to Layer with a Vest
December 17, 2018I’ve had a black puffer vest for some time now. Recently I bought a fuzzy one on Amazon for that $23 I shared on this post and this one. Then, through my partnership with Talbots, I got this adorable puffer vest (currently 40% off!!). The faux fur collar is removable which I really like. I have really been loving layering with a vest! If I am being honest, I think Old Navy has some awesome vests for the price though they…

I love how it makes anything look festive this time of year! If you are still looking for a gift for someone, this would be a great idea. It is a way less expensive version of the popular J.Crew one I had been eyeing. I styled in differently on Monday…
How to Style a Poncho with Edge
December 7, 2018Well if this isn’t the coziest poncho I ever did see (under $50)! Seriously though, I have worn it approximately 4 times since I got it last week. It comes in several colors too. I love that the knit is heavy but not thick. This means it weighs it down (i.e. it isn’t poofy) but doesn’t add bulk which makes it an actually flattering poncho! That can be hard to find! That brings me to the point of today’s post…
