(Fur)ocious

Coat: Jessica Simpson, Blouse: Dynamite (similar), Scarf (faux fur): Mossimo Supply Co. via Target, similar styles here and here, Jeans: Guess by Marciano, Boots: Steve Madden, Handbag: Lauren by Ralph Lauren, Watch: Michael Kors, similar here and here, Earrings: Fossil, similar style here, Bracelet: Kate Spade NY

Feeling (fur)ocious in my faux fur scarf, sheer blouse, and jewel toned accessories for today’s look. This is such a great outfit for the weekend, and the faux fur scarf is so warm and cozy! The jewel toned handbag and boots add a rich pop of color without being over the top, and compliment the tortoise jewelry perfectly. If you are not a fan of adding multiple colors to your look, start with adding one bold hue and go from there!

Mix It Up

Blazer: Forever21, similar style here, Blouse: T.J.Maxx, Jeans: Guess by Marciano, Heels: Nine West, similar here, Watch: Michael Kors, Clutch: French Connection via Dillard’s, still available at Nordstrom, Earrings & Gold Rings: Vintage, Infinity Ring: Urban Outfitters

Mixing prints and patterns can be pretty tricky sometimes. I don’t mix prints as much as I would like, but I’m working on getting out of my comfort zone and challenging myself. Normally, I would choose a neutral clutch for this type of look, but I decided to mix it up and add this oversized optic weave clutch instead. It’s hard to tell in these pictures, but this clutch has a cobalt zipper that adds a playful touch to the outfit. If mixing prints isn’t something that you’re into, then try simply adding a bold patterned clutch. It may turn out better than you expect!

First Snowfall

Cardigan: Gap, Shirt: T.J.Maxx, Scarf: T.J.Maxx, Jeans: Guess by Marciano, love these, Boots: Coach, these are cute too, Handbag: Francesca’s, Watch: Michael Kors, Earrings: Niki Designs

We had our first snowfall of the season a few days ago, and it was so beautiful! Snow never lasts long in Tennessee, so I made sure to grab my winter boots and get a few outfit photos before it was too late. My go-to in snowy weather is a warm sweater, a scarf, and comfortable winter boots!

Although I’m almost done all of my Christmas shopping, I’m on my way to the city to see what Black Friday deals are out there today. I didn’t line up at 5am for anything specific this year, I just love being in the midst of all the craziness!

Welcome to the Madhouse

Sweater: Urban Outfitters, love this one too, Shirt: Chicago Stanley Cup Parade 2013, similar styles here, Jeans: Guess by Marciano(old), but love this pair, Shoes: Report via T.J.Maxx, Hat: Reebok Chicago Blackhawks Beanie, Blackhawks Tervis Tumbler: Bed, Bath, & Beyond

Although I’ve never lived in Chicago, I was raised a Blackhawks fan. My dad has been completely obsessed with the Chicago Blackhawks since his childhood and passed that on to the rest of our family. Let’s just say that 2010 and 2013 were very exciting years in our household! In order to gear up for the game last night, I figured I would show my Blackhawks pride all day. My parents brought this shirt back from the Stanley Cup Parade in Chicago this past summer, and it’s probably the most comfortable shirt I own! However, the shirt alone just wasn’t enough pride for me. Yes, I snuck into my younger brother’s closet today and stole his Blackhawks beanie, I just couldn’t resist styling it with this outfit!

Laid-Back Vibe

I’m a sucker for oversized comfy sweaters in the Fall/Winter months. It gives a laid-back, effortless vibe, but still looks stylish. When I’m pressed for time, I throw on an oversized sweater, skinny jeans, booties, some texturizing spray in my hair and run out the door!
