Layered Winter Outfit with Long Grey Coat

Happy Friday everyone! I hope you’ve had a nice week so far and that you’ll have an even better weekend!

This week has been so cold and it was definitely a leap into winter. I’ve been on the hunt for new coats and I recently got this one from H&M for about $65, which is such a steal for the quality! I feel like it’s so hard to find quality jackets and coats for under $100. Normally I like to size up in jackets and coats, but sizing up with this much material made it look so bulky. I’m wearing a size small and definitely have more room if I wanted to layer more pieces underneath! I wore a thin white turtleneck underneath the coat for today’s look and paired it with light wash jeans and white ankle boots. I liked having the coat as the main piece of the outfit, and having it stand out against the lighter colors. The gray color would also be perfect for an all black outfit.

That’s it for today’s post! Thank you so much for stopping by today & I’ll see you back next week!

Pink Sweater Vest with Tailored Shorts – A Fall Classic!

Happy Friday and welcome back!

It’s been a pretty warm fall so far and this outfit is perfect for warmer days. The sweater vest and tailored shorts paired well together to give a mix of casual and dressy. I especially loved the colors – neutrals with a soft pop of pink! Truly the entire color palette of my apartment lol. This sweater vest is from Abercrombie and ends right at my waist. Cable knit sweaters can be so bulky but this one isn’t at all, which is ideal to style it multiple ways. It can be worn by itself for warmer weather like I’ve styled it today, or layered over a button down in colder weather. I’ve talked about these shorts before and they’re one of my favorite pairs! So comfy and elevated, and a good option if you want to wear something other than denim.

And that’s today’s outfit 🙂 Thank you for reading along! See you next week!

Styling Faux Leather Shorts for Fall!

Happy Friday!!

This week’s outfit was super fun to wear! I styled faux leather shorts with a pinstripe button down, black faux suede knee boots, and a black purse. I think the look would be even better with leather boots to match the shine of the shorts! My button down is from H&M a few years ago and it’s a little cropped, which is perfect for front tucks in high waisted bottoms. There’s not a ton of material to tuck in that will add volume inside the shorts, or that will hang outside and cover the short. These shorts are from Abercrombie and they run big, so I recommend sizing down. Faux leather is such a staple in the fall and winter – it’s the perfect statement piece because of the different texture! I like that these ones are tailored and longer in length. So far I’ve also styled them this season with a sweater and loafers, and I want to try pairing them with tights when the weather gets colder.

I hope you liked this look! Thank you for reading along and I’ll see you next Friday!
