Winter is a perfect time to add some color to your wardrobe! It's dreary and cold outside so why not go with bright? Most of the time it snows or rains without a ray of sunshine for weeks at a time. On the other hand, it's perfect light for pictures at any time of day. Pop of hot pink and some heels is all need to have a little pick me up. Hope you enjoyed your weekend and got a good start on your week!

Furry

shirt: LOFT
jeans: J.Crew
vest: thrifted (similar)
shoes: similar
bag: Ralph Lauren

I love fur vests but have been hesitant to wear one because it add about 10 pounds. With that being said I still want to style it for a cute winter look. We've been having such mild temperatures lately that a vest is all you really need. I'm enjoying the warmer (relatively speaking) weather but have very little energy to do much outside the house. This pregnancy is sucking the life out of me and I'm not even kidding. I did get dressed once last week and this is what I wore. 

Thank you for stopping by.

Traditions

sweater: LOFT
vest: Land's End
hat: Target
cords: LOFT
boots: similar
bag: Ralph Lauren

The days leading up to Christmas are always filled with family. I love the traditions that we have like getting together and baking our favorite cookies. I'm in charge of desserts, as we spend Christmas Eve at my mom's and Christmas Day with my in-laws. This year I'm making something new which is kind of scary and exciting at the same time. I will make sure to post it on Instagram if it comes out the way it's supposed to. 

We are also trying to make our own traditions with Christmas morning breakfast and gift giving, I can't wait to see Jonathan's face when he sees his present because it's pretty stinking cool. 

What are your favorite Christmas traditions?
Also check my last post with some great ideas for last minute gifts (they will never know!)

It's a Wonderful Life

skirt: vintage (similar)
belt: Target (cheaper version)
tote: Ralph Lauren
heels: Steve Madden (similar)
watch: FOSSIL

Christmas is literally only 3 days away and I couldn't be more excited. I have to say that this holiday season has been the best yet. We baked, sent out cards and watched Christmas movies with family. The thing is that we aren't doing gift exchange this year and it took a load off! There is no last minute running to the store, no wrapping until midnight and certainly no breaking the bank. It's been a peaceful and relaxing Christmas season - which is what I've always wished for. The gift giving is a wonderful idea but should not be the main focus. It's not about the presents but the reason for the season - the birth of Jesus. 

I hope you're enjoying your Christmas and relaxing with the family!

There is nothing I love more than a pretty skirt that makes me feel girly. I love the style and easy with which this skirt moves. It's so classy and pretty and goes with pretty much everything in my closet. Yay for a great buy. Do you ladies like full midi skirt? Or do you prefer pencil skirts? Or maybe skirts are not your thing at all? Do share! I would love to hear from you

Feeling Blue

dress // blouse // tote // pumps // sunnies // watch // bracelet 

I'm a fan of remixing and wearing my clothes lots of different ways. Believe it or not, when I was planning this outfit, blue seemed the way to go. Although it looks monotone, I love the cohesive look of one piece.

It's really cold outside and I'm on the verge of abandoning outfit photos (again). I mean seriously! I get ready in the car, then jump out, pose for 2 minutes and jump back in. A huge thanks goes to my sister who is (still) willing to take my pictures.

All That Glitters

jeans // (similar) blouse // tank // (similar) trench // pumps // tote

My wonderful husband outdone himself this year with my birthday gift. I've been eyeing a fashionable, structured brown tote (similar to this one) for a long time. As soon as I spotted this Ralph Lauren tote I was in love. Every time I would walk into Macy's I would look at it and go away. So one day we were just browsing the store, and he goes it's your birthday (with a wink). So I was beyond thrilled and snatched that baby up (plus I had 30% off coupon. yay me!) Anyhow, prepare to get sick of this bag because I cannot stop pairing it with everything in my closet.
