Casual Winter

The temperature has definitely fallen, we even saw our first dusting of snow! My favorite thing about the cold weather is putting on a comfy over-sized sweater, stretchy leggings, some simple jewelry accent pieces, and throwing my hair back in a ponytail. Finish the look with a smoky natural makeup and it's time to cuddle up on the couch!

What are some of your favorite cold weather looks?

Casual Brunch Outfit

So this weekend, mother nature made it clear that fall is upon us. We were having such a beautiful fall that she tricked me into believing it would never end. The chill in the air inspired this outfit. A cozy sweater, comfortable jeans, and pair of calf-hugging boots with a touch of color from the nails and necklace.

Elegant Dinner

One of my favorite fashion style is to dress a nice pair of jeans up! It creates such a simple elegance that I adore. It gives the outfit a sense of sophistication without taking things to seriously. So a dark wash jeans with a lace top, gold accent jewelry, neutral shoes and makeup with wavy hair is my perfection!

Casual Sunday

Another easy Sunday outfit. Nothing better than a flowy light shirt to lounge around in on a beautiful Sunday. Paired with strappy sandals, stacked bracelets, a pendant necklace and jean and the outfit is complete. 

Enjoy your Sunday,

Spring Colors

Spring is finally coming, which makes me think of colors, lots of color! This inspired my simple, colorful, chic outfit below. What are you dying to wear this spring?

Fall Comfort

Yes, it's fall and the temperatures are starting to drop. It's also the start of the busiest shopping time of the year. Here is my take on a fall outfit that I could shop for hours in with ease and comfort! Natural makeup, a messy updo, skinny jeans, low ankle boots, a warm cardigan and some spiked accessories.

The Start of Summer

I don't know why, but I love a good hoodie with a pair of jean shorts for cool summer nights. Sure, it's not summer quite yet but I'm just planning ahead. For these types of outfits I like to keep it simple. A casual leather watch, stud bow earring, a strappy leather sandal and I'm good to go!

Summer Outfit

Another simple summer outfit! Slightly distressed pair of blue jeans, a cream ruche tank, braided bracelet, petal stacked rings, bejeweled flat, mint purse, and a simple braided hair and makeup. Perfect for a summer day!

Blue Outfit

The weekends have been cool, but gorgeous lately so I am hoping it will be for my birthday in a few days. One of my favorite places to go is the zoo. So if weather permits, to the zoo we will go. Since it's still the middle of winter, I figured blue jeans and a long sleeve tunic would suffice. The belted tunic, wedge TOMs, and simple jewelry gives the outfit a hint of sophistication. A caramel crossbody bag to carry all my stuff without weighing me down and a side-fishtail braid to round out the outfit. I don't like to match too much, but I like hints here or there like the blue stripe tunic, fashion ring, and nail polish. It helps with tying it all together. Then of course, tortoise-shelled sunglasses in hopes that the sun will peek out!

Ready for Spring Outfit

Alright, I must admit that I am ready for spring! When I think of spring, I think of bright, fun colors and easy, breezy outfits. I reach for clothes that are comfortable to lounge around with a sophisticated twist. So my colorful, eye catching piece are these hot pink pants. They just scream spring! To compliment the bright pants, I surrounded them with neutral items to keep the outfit from being too overwhelming. A drapey, cream dress shirt paired with casual jewelry like these gold hoop earrings, crystal studded bangles, and heart pendant chain necklace keeps the outfit simple. Then I added nude flats, a camel stained cross body bag, and relaxed wavy curls to complete the look. Spring, here I come!

Lunch Date Outfit

A reoccurring theme: blue jeans! The outfits in my last several posts have all included a good old pair of jeans. I promise, the next post I will change it up a bit. Anyways, I paired these jeans with a bow tank and trench coat. I LOVE trench coats by the way: simple yet classy! Then, pastel pink flats, leather clutch, diamond dropped earrings, and an antique gold brushed rope bracelet. To complete the outfit, neutral tone sunglasses. I envision myself wearing this for a lunch date, casual dinner or casual Fridays at work.  It’s a put together ensemble without sacrificing comfort. Hope this gives you guys some gorgeous outfit ideas!

City Outfit

Blue skies. Sunshine. Frost tipped grass. Chilly bite to the air. A walk in the city. This would be the perfect outfit for just that! I could see myself in a comfy pair of jeans, a simple tank with a slight embellished trim as I roamed the city. I love a patterned and textured coat to bring some flare to an otherwise subdued outfit. In order to avoid taking away from the detail of the coat, I thought neutral nails, pumps, handbag, and gold studded earring and necklace are great ways to round out the outfit. Then finish off by add a little simple glamour with a braided updo. The city, here I come!

Casual Weekend

The weekend has arrived and after a long week of work, the only thing I want to do is relax! My style is pretty casual anyways so this outfit is right up my alley with a comfortable pair of jeans, a heart long sleeve shirt, and simple chignon updo. I like to add little accents to a casual outfit to prevent it from being too boring. So a beaded bracelet, hook taper earrings and some bling-out black nails are perfect additions. Then a no-fuss black cross-body bag, a hummingbird pendent necklace and some good old combat boots to round it all out. Simple. Comfortable. Cute.

Light Winter Outfit

So anyone who knows me, knows that I love fashion! I love to shop and think of creative ways of putting an outfit together. I would describe my style as being comfortable yet chic. However, for some reason, I actually very lazy when it comes to dressing up in real life. My work clothes are extremely casual and when the weekend comes, I usually crawl into some sweats at home or I throw on a tee shirt, leggings, and boots when heading out and about.

Then I discover a website called Polyvore that allows you to scrounge the latest fashion and put together an outfit from head to toe. It also links you to where you could purchase these items or provide you with an idea of what to look for when you shop. I have been creating these outfits for a few months now and figured it would be nice to share it with you guys.  So below is my Light Winter Outfit. It is casual, but chic and will keep you warm. Enjoy!

Cozy Winter Outfit

Lately, it has been sunny with a crispness to the air. This is my absolute favorite weather. So how do I dress for these gorgeous days? Well, blue jeans and a t-shirt is perfect for any day. I love wearing a light shirt under a warm wool coat. It's enough to keep me warm while I am outside, but avoid overheating when I'm inside.  I actually have these GAP curvy jeans and they are very comfortable. They are boot cut, made with stretch denim, low-rise, and curvy through the hips and thighs. I also have the TOMS Dessert Wedges in both taupe and chestnut. I can walk for hours in them! They are also extremely versatile and can easily be dressed up or down. A universally flattering color is cobalt blue and this wrap coat is adorable! Paired with some spiked earrings, neutral color cross-body bag, and simple wavy hair....this is a comfortable outfit I could wear all day!

Enjoy!
