My Favs on Repeat

Hi strangers! Missed you too!

How was your Thanksgiving?? Did you eat and shop and nap like I hope you did?

There is nothing like taking some time off from the every day duties right? I def don’t like leaving you and the blog for very long. Just doesn’t feel right. But in order for me to shop my heart out for fun pieces to share with you, I had to put the phone down. I gave a little preview of alllll the new shoes I got on the IG. Super excited to style those!

In the mean time, although I have so much newness in the closet, I wanted to share the pieces that are on my repeat list. Like, if I needed to save only a few pieces from the closet, these would be it. Of course I made sure to link the pieces you can get now, but naturally I’ve had these pieces for a while.

So here is the list:

Bordeaux Bag: Option 1 | Option 2
Gray Duster: Option 1 | Option 2 | Option 3 | Option 4
Black Flat Booties: Option 1 | Option 2 | Option 3
Dark Blue Denim
Camel Colored Bomber

So there it is. Everything I’m wearing I love. It all fits perfectly. It all matches everything and anything I put it with. It is easy.

The duster….from Zara. It is that insanely perfect thickness to where I can rock it as a cardigan or as a jacket. It wraps me in the chic vibes that Zara delivers to us on a daily basis.

The bag…well, let’s be real. I wonder why I like it. The color!! It also has that great shape of a bucket while feeling like an easy satchel to carry around. Originally from Zara.

The booties! Seriously, what a perfect combination of booties but feeling like flats. The pointed toe and chunky heel can be worn anywhere!! No longer do I need to choose between flats and booties. These give it all. Originally from Kohl’s, Vera Wang.

Denim. I don’t need to sit here and tell you guys the importance of finding the perfect pair of jeans. But it happens that when I got these from Forever 21, they were $10. Yes please. I will take the ultimate pair of denim for that price. I’m sure we’re all a little skeptical of a price like that while requiring quality, but for some reason, these work!

Camel! Love the color, so versatile. I went out looking for a suede camel jacket and found this one. I didn’t want to leave it. Goes with everything.

Side note, the safety pin blouse is from Kohl’s…a few years ago.

I’m always curious to the pieces that you all live in? What do you recommend?

And 3 weeks until my NYC Christmas vaca….and counting!

A Monochromatic Weekend

Happy Thanksgiving week! Is everyone thrilled for pumpkin pie, family, and a huge nap after it all? I love the holidays so much. Such a magical time.

I guess you could say winter is starting to creep up on us here in WI. Naturally it was 70 degrees last week but it snowed Saturday morning and it was 26 degrees yesterday.

Of course none of us are thrilled this Monday and I don’t mean to rub it in but I have a nice 5 day weekend coming up. So technically I should not be complaining this morning. Except when it comes to complaining about the Packers, smh. Terrible.

Here is your weekend wear look!monochromatic gray weekend wearmonochromatic gray weekend wear

I made sure to do a little shopping over the weekend and got a few sweaters. Heavy duty sweaters. I plan to get a lot more this Friday though! Obviously in preparation for New York too.

Monochrome is such a fun and quick style. Just grab every shade of the same color in your closet and throw it on! Don’t think about it though!

Shop the look:

Sweater | Scarf | Sneakers | Skirt | Clutch | Lipstick

So is everyone prepared for Black Friday shopping?? I’m always curious as to what big item everyone is going for! Mine is a new winter jacket. I found one on Amazon right now but we’ll see if I find a better deal or not. What are you shopping for?

 

Guilt Free Treats: Arctic Zero

With the holidays coming up, one must be prepared to lose all control over his or her diet. Me personally, I don’t hold back during the holidays. It’s almost insulting to not take seconds when someone worked so hard on that meal. And the whole diet/weight loss New Years Resolutions coming up as well…staying fit is a struggle around these times.

So what is anyone supposed to do?? I am here to tell you not to feel guilty. About any of it.

If you’re an extreme health conscious person or someone sort of watching his or her diet or someone who just doesn’t care….this fab treat applies to all of you!
