Olive Green Wool Skirt










Outfit Details:
sweater: Forever 21 via Do You...Deja Vu Boutique
belt: vintage
skirt: vintage via Do You... Deja Vu Boutique
heels: Kenneth Cole New York via DSW
haircut, color and style done at Iva Bella Salon


This is an  old shoot from the archives that I had forgotten about. I took these photos on Thanksgiving, the day after I had gotten my hair done at Iva Bella by my amazing friend James Cornwell. I am still obsessed with my hair and it is so nice that he colored it in a way that I don't have to get my roots touched up every month! I am definitely a low maintenance person when it comes to my hair. 

For this outfit I paired this vintage skirt with my awesome scottie dog printed sweater and to define my waist I used my wide patent leather belt to cinch things in! 

If you need to get your hair done go check out Iva Bella Salon ... trust me you will not be sorry you made the trip there!

Cape with Fur Trim








Outfit Details:
cape: vintage
top: Boston Proper
skirt: Brooks Brothers
necklace: vintage
boots: unknown

I have never really gotten into capes before (except for costumes when I was younger), but as a fashion statement they had never crossed my radar. Now you see them popping up all over the fashion world. An easy way to stay warm while letting your arms stay free and mobile. This concept makes so much sense, because sometimes a coat can really restrict your arm movement and then if you get warm you have to struggle to take the whole coat off. With a cape air flow is able to circulate unless you don't want it to and then you can easily bundle up.

Here this look is very elegant and chic, not necessarily a typical ensemble I gravitate towards, but one I wouldn't mind popping on once in awhile to feel extra "ritzy".

How do you guys feel about capes?

Here are some beautiful ones that I am loving:

Belted Chunky Sweater











Outfit Details:
skirt, sweater, belt and earrings all from Do You ...Deja Vu Boutique


There is nothing better than "cozying" up in a large sweater when the air gets chilly. Here I paired the sweater with a vintage pencil wool skirt and belted it to show my waist a little bit. I ended up getting the skirt of course because I absolutely love pencil skirts! 

How do you wear your chunky sweaters during the cold months?!
