Last weekend I switched out my closets. The cold weather gear came out of storage and the summer skirts and tanks went in. It took all weekend and is still a work in progress... However, it's kind of like having a whole new wardrobe! While a lot of the pieces are from last year, I haven't worn them for a while so I get to rework them and style them in new ways this year!
I love layering pieces. Growing up in south Texas kept me from really understanding how to layer winter wear. It was never cold enough! But then I moved to Oklahoma and then Northern California and learning to layer during the winter months became imperative to not freezing! Now I love to layer different pieces because it adds so much to an outfit! You can mix textures and patterns and re-wear pieces, but make them look brand new!
I like this black and white flannel a lot because it's longer so it's great for layering. Mine is from American Eagle and is a few years old, but I totally recommend looking for one with the extra length. It looks cute peeking out from under the bottom of sweaters and keeps from looking too bulky when you add layers on top! Also, I bought this black V-neck sweater last year at Banana Republic and it became one of my most worn basics. It's super flattering! I literally want one in every color.
I found these boots at Nordstrom Rack during their last Clear the Rack event. I love Stuart Weitzman, but the boots are pretty expensive! These are the Highway boot in Blasue. The Highway boot is available from a few Ebay sellers if you Google it. The one I linked is the Hijack boot and from what I can tell the only noticeable difference is that the heel on mine is suede and the heel on the Hijack is stacked. I actually prefer a stacked heel because it wears better than a sueded heel, but when you find Stuart Weitzman on sale you don't say no!
Happy Friday!!
Love you lots,
