Cozy in the Snow

November 17, 2014









Turtleneck: Old Navy (not very many sizes online, but there were quite a few in store). Sweater: Gap (super old, similar here). Jeans: Gap. Socks: J. Crew. Boots: L.L. Bean

If you can't tell from the above pictures, snow makes me so happy! Unless it's March, but we won't think about that yet. The fresh snowfall over the weekend is making it increasingly more difficult not to listen to Christmas music. Must. Resist. 

I haven't shared this on the blog yet, but Mark has accepted a job in California and will start in February. So we've decided that I will be moving to join him in CA after I graduate in May. It's going to be a huge adjustment for me, but I cannot wait to be done with long distance! After four years, it's getting really old. Anyways, why am I telling you this? Because, snow. Since this will be my last winter in MN (for now) I'm trying to savor fall and winter as much as I possibly can! 

Hope you had a wonderful weekend and have a great start to your week!

Fabulous Finds

November 14, 2014

1. The perfect mug to drink your holiday cocoa out of from Williams Sonoma.
2. A cozy turtleneck sweater from J. Crew Factory.
3. The most perfect holiday party shoe from ASOS.
4. Loving this plaid moto jacket from Forever 21.
5. A party skirt from J. Crew
6. Cute and cozy from J. Crew

Do you notice a pattern? Lots of grey, gold, and plaid on my radar right now. Tis the season though! This weekend is going to be pretty laid back. Lots of homework and a wine night with my sister are currently on the agenda. Can you believe it's less than two weeks until Thanksgiving?! I genuinely love everything about Thanksgiving, so I can't wait. Now I just need to decide what to wear!  

Have a fabulous weekend!

The Pink Coat

November 12, 2014








Coat: JOA. Sweater: Forever 21. Pants: Forever 21. Necklace: ILY Couture. Purse: Forever 21 (similar). Shoes: Sam Edelman (50% off!). 

As you can see these pictures were taken before we got a few inches of snow. I was just musing about how beautiful fall was gone and had been replaced by dead and ugly. Thank goodness for the snow. It always makes everything so pretty! Now, about this coat. When I saw it was on sale during the Shopbop friends and family sale I couldn't resist. Because, well pink. 

Have a good one!

Holiday Party Attire

November 11, 2014


I know some of you may be thinking it's a little early for this post, and you're not wrong. However, a combination of getting a few inches of snow yesterday and my love of planning ahead lead me to create this post. Personally, I start thinking about what I want to wear for holiday parties any time after Halloween (it's the type A in me), so I thought I would share a fun round-up of what's been catching my eye. A lot of fun, holiday items (especially anything sequined) will sell out the closer we get to Christmas, so it's never too early to start planning! Personally, I bought this sequined top in black and am planning an outfit around it. I also just bought this gold dress for a wedding after New Years! After Thanksgiving (yes, I have some sense of control) I'll be showing you a few different holiday styles that I plan on wearing this year. Can't wait!
