Look of the Day #127

LOTD

Happy Halloween everyone! No matter how old or young you are, I hope you take some time to celebrate Halloween today, whether it’s by dressing up, passing out candy, heading to a costume party or even just watching your favorite scary movie. Today is a fun day that should be filled all treats and no tricks. I will be heading to a fun Halloween dance tomorrow, so unfortunately, I can’t share my costume until next week. It will be worth the wait, I’m excited for this year’s costume, it inexpensive and easy to do at home. I can’t wait to share for next week.

 Now, before we get ahead of ourselves, here’s a new look for today’s look of the day. No matter the season, I always like to dress warm, even in the summer, I typically have a sweater with me. Long sleeves are my go-to. This outfit that I put together is perfect for heading to class for a presentation, a day in the office, a date night, or even Sunday mass. 

Full outfit

Let’s start with the dress. I got it from Old Navy and I love it so much I got it in gray and burgundy. The fabric is thin so you can wear it in any season, winter, spring, summer, and fall. I love cotton dresses, you can dress them up or down, pair it with boots and a jacket for a more casual look or dress it up with tights and heels. I also need to talk about the shape of it, it is loose and flows, so it fits any body type. For today’s look, I decided to go more for the dressier look.

Just the dress

I paired my gray dress with black tights and shoe boots. These shoe boots are from T.J. Maxx and are comfortable and durable. 

I also decided to add more black accents with a scarf and jacket. It was cooler when I was out and about wearing this, so I needed some extra warmth. But, without the black, the dress still works great on its own. 

I love wearing outfits that can be mixed and matched depending on the occasion. This dress was the perfect thing to wear as we head into the cooler months. How are you planning on getting ready for colder weather? 

One last look

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and a spooktacular Halloween.

Look of the Day #33

LOTD

One of my favorite Christmas gifts. Definitely will be used with the snowy weather

Happy Thursday! How has your week been? Getting adjusted to being back to work after the holidays? Ready for the weekend?

Snow has been falling nonstop for the past few days. Life these days has been filled with snow covered streets and below freezing temperatures. Welcome to the East Coast!

I’m sharing a fresh look of the day. For those who live where snow falls more than half the year, or if you are used to more temperatures in the 30’s rather than the 80’s then this post is for you. Planning a ski trip to the mountains, keep on reading.  I’m giving you a peak into my favorite winter essentials.

One of my favorite Christmas gifts. It will be keeping me warm in the snow

No matter the weather, a heavy coat is crucial. I got this coat for Christmas and it is not only stylish but warm. I got it from L.L. Bean. It can keep you warm from 0 to below 50 degrees.  It is well insulated and well keep you warm walking to class or heading into work. Plus, who doesn’t love a big fur hood to keep your head warm.

Favorite boots and cabin socks

Another winter essentials I can’t live without are snow boots. We all love our Uggs but they can get ruined after constantly walking through the snow. These boots from Sperry, but I got them for sale at DSW, not only keep my warm but are stylish. Add a pair of warm cabin socks and you have yourself a stylish outfit. I love pairing boot socks and short Sperry boots together. These cabin socks are another favorite winter essential.

I wore a pair of hounds tooth leggings with this outfit with a black blouse. I wanted to dress up this print leggings. Be on the lookout for that outfit in the upcoming weeks. This outfit kept me warm on a day with freezing temperatures. Also, I couldn’t end this post without a shout out to my cousin, Grace for taking these fantastic photos. She did phenomenal especially in the freezing cold. What are your must haves when it comes to winter fashion? Happy Thursday friends
