My Black Friday and Cyber Monday purchases officially started rolling in last week! One of my favorite things about online shopping, other than I can do it in my pajamas, is when the packages start to arrive! Even though I know what is in them, it is still exciting to rip open the box and check out the goods! I actually first saw this sweater while shopping at Nordstrom a few weeks prior to Black Friday. I really liked it, but it came in 3 colors and I couldn’t decide which one I wanted to buy. I decided to hold off until I could decide on a color. Fast forward a few weeks later, and I found this sweater included in their Black Friday markdowns!! Bonus, this sweater is STILL marked down to $20!! This sweater is on the thinner side which is often what I look for in sweaters. I mean it’s December and we are finally in the fall season down here in Texas, so I buy the majority of my sweaters on the thinner side. I decided on the teal shade because it’s a color I don’t own too much of yet, but I love this color! The other two colors are burgundy which I’m obsessed with and black also one of my color crushes. Also, just a sizing note. I typically wear a medium in this brand, but ordered in a small after reading reviews. The small fits perfect so I’m happy I chose to go down a size! Also, my boots are on sale again! The second link and wide-calf version needs promo code FRIEND which is good for almost everything on the site not just the boots, but the first link is a price match so no code required. I put both in case you are interested and your size is out at one store. Thanks for starting out your week by stopping by the blog! I hope the rest of year week is AMAZING!

My closet definitely does not hold all my clothes. I am currently super jealous of one of my friends who is turning a spare bedroom into a closet! Until that day comes for me, I will stick with my current system of packing away my seasonal clothes twice a year. It is kind of fun at the start of fall/winter to open up my totes of sweaters, boots, and jackets. Texas fall and winter is all of like 4 months, so I haven’t seen most of these clothes since about April. It is almost as exciting as getting new clothes, almost. 🙂 I also love to start mixing my old and new winter items together. I love to hit up J.Crew for some basic winter sweaters. They have a timeless look to them, and they are great quality. I usually buy 2 or 3 from them every year. This sweater pairs so perfectly with my new quilted vest from Old Navy. I always have to have something attention getting in my outfit, and this necklace is just that. I love how it peeks out from under the vest. I just updated my Shop Page to change the seasonal must-haves from Fall to Winter. Check it out if you are looking for some winter fashion inspiration! Thanks so much for swinging by the blog today!!

Layering is a fall and winter staple for me! One of my favorite ways to layer is to pair short sweaters with longer tops. I love using some of my summer tops and tanks to get a few extra out of season wears from them. I also love to layer printed blouses under solid sweaters! I love to see the print peeking out at the bottom and at the end of the sleeves. You can also roll back the sleeves on the bottom shirt so more of the print shows. I paired the layered look with my black flared skirt. At last check it was sold out, so I also linked a similar version. This skirt is another closet staple for me that I wear year round! You may remember me talking about buying these boots a week or two ago. I have worn them a couple times and they are really comfortable! They have a slight padding in the bottom which was honestly weird when I first put my foot in, but I think it helps with the comfy factor. I have worn them with both dresses and jeans, and they are super cute with both! Don’t worry these will be all over the blog this winter, so you will see them styled different ways quite a bit! If you are still looking for some Thanksgiving outfit ideas, this look would definitely be a cute one!

Sweater Dress
| DETAILS |
BP V-Neck Sweater Dress | NINE WEST Makinsense Booties [SIMILAR] | GIGI NY All in One Bag | GORJANA Mika Necklace, Zion Necklace, Aldridge Earrings | BAUBLEBAR Slim Hinge Bangle | RAYBAN Aviator Sunglasses | ESSIE Nail Polish in Sole Mate | MAC Lipstick in Craving
I think a sweater dress is the ultimate in cozy but still put together. I have been slowly building my sweater dress collection over the past few years. I love the v-neck on this one and the gradual color change too. Sweater dresses don’t really have a lot of shape, so I like that the lighter color helps broaden the shoulders a bit. I think the v design and shading creates a little shape with some eye trickery. You can also try belting the waist on solid color dresses to add a little shape. I always wear a slip underneath sweater dresses because they are a knit which can be a little see-through. For fall, I love pairing mine with booties and some layered necklaces. For winter, I plan on restyling this dress with some leggings and tall boots. You can dress the look up with a heeled boot or dress it down with a flat boot.
As I mentioned on Wednesday, I’m super excited for Adele’s new album released today!! If you need me today, I will be listening to it on constant repeat!! I’ll give ya’ll a little review on Monday. Although considering I have listened to the first song like a good million times already, I have a feeling I’m going to like the whole album! Have a good weekend ya’ll!
