Spring Dreaming + Outfit Details

As the snow is melting (hopefully), I can't help but wish for spring weather! 

There is something about spring clothing that I love. The bright colors are my favorite! Although it is still way too cold to wear actual Spring clothes, there are ways to brighten up an outfit when the temps are still below 30. My favorite way to do so is with accessories. What better way to stay warm and make a bright statement than with a blanket scarf?! I purchased this blanket scarf from Target and I can't stop wearing it! I love the pop of bright pink in it! I've linked this exact scarf here!

Oversized sweaters are probably the top essential for a winter wardrobe. Not only do they provide that slouchy-chic look, they are also SO comfy! I honestly live in mine whether I am just lounging around for the day or if I'm going out. I promise, an oversized sweater will be the most practical piece you ever invest in. 

Booties are perfect for giving a slouchy outfit a more put-together look. I could have worn knee-high boots or even a cute pair of flats with this outfit and it would have worked fine. I just love the look of these simple, chic booties combined with the oversized, comfy look of this whole outfit. I also love how the caramel color in these booties bring out the warm colors in the scarf. I would have to say, the shoes truly do make this outfit work well. My exact pair are from last year's collection at Old Navy, but I have linked a similar pair here!

Ski Sweater Weather + Outfit Details

Well, the snow has officially arrived here in Kentucky, and I don't think the grass will be making an appearance for a while by the looks of the forecast! 

But, if the snow gives me an excuse to wear my favorite sweater, I guess I'll take it! Can we all take a wild guess where this amazing sweater is from? You guessed it, J.Crew. I just can't help myself when it comes to their super soft, SUPER warm sweaters. If buying J.Crew out of their sweaters is wrong, I don't want to be right. This ski sweater is the first thing I reach for on snowy days when I have to leave my bed. It is enough to make me feel put together, yet it is still simple. 

*my exact sweater is sold out, but I've linked this year's version here. I might love it even more!

Now, if you know me well enough, you should know that I'm very much into vests. If I can wear one, I will. ESPECIALLY when it is below 30 degrees out! This one I received for Christmas and I kid you not, it is like wearing a down comforter. This Ralph Lauren quilted vest is not only gorgeous with the gold detailing, but it is SO warm!

I've discussed my love for black skinny jeans before- hello confidence booster! But sometimes good ol' leggings will do the trick. Especially these super thick ones from Victoria's Secret. Good leggings are hard to find, but I have found that these from VS not only are thick enough, but they seem to "hold me in"in all the right places... If ya know what I mean! I've linked my pair here.

Okay, now for the star(s) of the show! My gorgeous Hunter boots! Ahhhhh, I just love them. I can't help it. These are my first pair and I am literally in love. I decided to go with black. Black goes with pretty much anything and they just seemed super practical for me. I mean come on, who doesn't need cute boots to trudge through the snow? I know I do! These are the tall ones and they hit me perfectly below the knee! Go buy you some here before the next snow!

Thanks for stopping by! I'll see you next time!

Baby it's Even Colder Outside + Outfit Details

It's cold, y'all. Here in Kentucky it really does not get unbearably cold until mid January and let me tell ya, the bitter cold stage is in full swing! Snow is on the horizon and now that I am in college, the thought of trudging through the snow is almost enough to make me cry. Needless to say, I could do without the white fluffy stuff this time around. 

But, if it does have to be super cold, you better believe I am going to embrace it when it comes to my wardrobe! Anyone else obsessed with the fair isle sweater comeback? Most may look at this sweater and have thoughts of their grandparents or family photos from the 70s, but I absolutely love the timeless look and feel of these classic sweaters! 

The one that I am wearing is of course, from J.Crew. In my opinion, J.Crew has the ability to mix tacky and classic and turn it into perfection. I love the navy, mint, and gray detailing in this sweater. The colors combine and seem to align perfectly with the frigid temps outside!

p.s. This sweater is now on sale PLUS you can get 30% off AND free shipping now! I've linked it here.

I paired this sweater with a navy quilted vest. The solid vest has a way of toning down the pattern in the sweater so it is not so in-your-face. Old Navy gets me every year with their vests. This one is from last year, but I have linked one that is basically identical from J.Crew here!

Skinny jeans and bean boots go together like coffee and cream. American Eagle never fails when it comes to jeans that fit me perfectly. I have linked this exact pair here! My bean boots are one of my most prized possessions. I got mine for Christmas last year and I wear them ALL THE TIME. In my opinion, they are more than worth the investment! I've linked my pair here.

Thank you all for reading today! I hope you enjoyed! See ya soon!

Baby It's Cold Outside + Outfit Details

Okay so the title is an understatement- It's FREEZING. 

Hello lovelies! Long time no see... College. Need I say more? But I am back and have made it one of my resolutions for the year to really keep up with this blog! I will not fall off the wagon this time! 

My best friend, Hannah (we know, we have the same name) is a saint for capturing these shots today in the ice cold air and blistering wind. This particular outfit is one of my go to winter outfits. It is simple, yet it makes a statement. 

Buying this coat is a decision that I do not regret. I love the timeless look of it and the fact that it is extremely warm is a huge plus. The faux fur hood will make you feel like a million bucks (and an eskimo- but that's besides the point). I absolutely adore the gold button detailing, but he doesn't love gold detailing on anything?! This particular color is not available anymore, but there are three colors left that are swoon worthy! 

*p.s. this coat is on clearance now- PLUS 50% off so RUN right now to get it!

Am I the only one who lives in J.Crew sweaters throughout the winter time? In my opinion, they are so practical and so comfy! I loved that this one mixes grays with a stripe of gold on the sides. I can wear gold jewelry, silver jewelry, or dare I say... both?! Yes please! 

*this sweater is now on sale for UNDER $25! & it comes in 3 colors!

Black skinny jeans are a staple in every woman's closet. I feel like a good pair of black skinny jeans will take a woman's confidence from 5 to 15 in any given situation. The ones that I am sporting are a jegging material and I basically live in them. They are so comfy! 

I bought the jeans that I'm wearing in these pictures from the T.J. Maxx clearance section (Score!) but some of my other favorites can be found at American Eagle and Express.  

If you haven't embraced the bootie trend, you need to get your BOOTY to the mall and start now! I love my booties! They are incredibly practical. Whether you dress them up or down, you will be sure to catch someone's eye.

You can slide on over to Old Navy's website to snatch up the same booties that I'm wearing for under $30 here!

Thank you so much for reading, I hope you enjoyed! Stay warm ladies!

-Hannah
