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!

Storm's a brewing + Outfit Details

Finally what's left of the grass after the snow has been revealed! But of course, storms are in the forecast... Winter storms. I have an obsession with pastel colors making dressing for the Winter very hard for me. Today, the temperature was absolutely perfect. I didn't have to run to get my jacket in between shots for once! I chose a very simple, clean look for today. This look is seriously one of the easiest looks to create.

I started off the look with a baby blue and white very lightweight striped oxford shirt from Old Navy. I threw on a simple light gray cardigan to tie it all together. I'm all about throwing on cardigans to make an outfit look a little more sophisticated. I paired this outfit with navy flats and a little bit of arm candy. Gotta love Target watches and pearls! This is my go to outfit if I am having one of those "I have nothing to wear" moments. It's so simple and you can mix it up in so many different ways.

Thank you so much for reading, I hope you enjoyed! Lots of Love!

Bright Colors on a dreary day + Outfit Details

I know I've said it before, but I'm more serious today than ever... I'm ready to see grass! But of course, snow is STILL in the forecast. Oh well, I guess with Kentucky weather you just sort of learn to roll with the punches. Today, I was definitely feeling something a little bit brighter since I'm dreaming of Spring! My pink and white striped Polo Ralph Lauren oxford did the job. I don't know what Ralph Lauren puts in these oxfords but it must be something magical. They're so comfortable and so worth the splurge.

I paired my oxford with my all-time favorite quilted vest from Old Navy. I know for a fact that Old Navy no longer sells these (trust me, I've looked for more colors!), but I will link some below that are comparable. Added to jeans and boots, this was a simple outfit to create and very practical for everyday wear! 

I hope you enjoyed this post, thank you so much for stopping by! Lots of Love!
