If you love long cardigans, I definitely recommend a cocoon cardigan.  They kind of remind me of a blanket with sleeves which is why I love them.  I picked this one up last year from Zara, but I linked a few similar ones that are on sale and have multiple color options.  These cardigans are great for casual looks, but also work to throw on with a dress or a blouse and work pants.   I wear this one ALOT in the winter months both out and about and around the house.

 I also wanted to share about my new AG jeans.  I have been wearing them for just over a month now, and I am in love!  These jeans have the tiniest bit of stretch to make them comfy, but they don’t over stretch and turn baggy.  I wear my jeans a couple times before washing, so I need them to hold their shape.  The color was that perfect neutral jean shade that I was searching for to be able to really wear year round with a wide variety of colors.    I have worn these with booties, riding boots, and heels. You have probably seen them all over my Instagram feed.  I’m so excited to have found this brand on sale, so I could try them out.  I will definitely be heading back to this brand for another pair.

I am so ready for this long weekend! I have some fun plans with friends that I cannot wait for and a relaxing Sunday Funday at home scheduled too!  I hope ya’ll have a great weekend too! Thanks for stopping by!

I definitely think I am more creative with my layering in winter.   Warm but still cute, that’s my goal.  I also like to mix and match my sweaters with pieces I wear from other seasons.  Winter in Texas only lasts a couple months, so I don’t necessarily like to buy loads of sweaters.  Instead I try to buy more solid color sweaters that I can mix in with my wardrobe and wear layered with other tops over and over again.  The v-neckline on this sweater was perfect to pair with this tie neck blouse.   I also love the stark contrast in color from the purple and the ivory.   If you follow my instagram or saw my roundup on Monday, you know I love my skinny work pants, but I also love to pull out this flared pair.  I think flared work pants are perfect when wearing a more slim fit top like with this fitted sweater or with a button down top. This is definitely a winter work outfit that has  me excited to change out of my warm and cozy pajamas and head into the office. Well that and coffee, lots of coffee! 🙂

The title of this post may seem to be a bit of a bold statement, but it is 100% how I feel about this top!  I love the look of a button down shirt, but sometimes they can be a bit stiff. I sit at a desk all day.  I want my clothes to be comfortable AND professional.  That’s what I love about this top.  The fabric is this comfy semi-sheer crepe like material which is soft and moves.  I also like that it has two buttons on the arm.  You can wear the sleeves long on cold days or roll them up to 3/4 or a little higher on warmer days.   I mean come on, it’s like the versatility king of work shirts!  It also comes in a wide array of colors and patterns, so I have a feeling I will be buying more.  I decided to start with the striped version, because it’s a classic print that works well both for work and play.  Outside of work, I love to pair button down tops with denim and riding boots to create a bit of dressed up look for a Saturday evening dinner or a Friday Happy Hour.  By the way, these tops are buy one get the second 50% off right now!  I definitely want to get this one and probably a solid one.

Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by the blog today!!
