I have mentioned my love for layering in the cold winter months in previous posts. One of my top ways is layering a cropped sweater with a longer top. In summer months, a long sleeveless tunic or blouse is my go to with skinny jeans and wedges. In winter, I give these tops new life by layering them under a cropped or high low sweater. I look for sweaters that hit at about the waistline of my jeans to allow a few inches of the blouse to peak through the bottom. You may have noticed I tend to buy these types of sweaters in solid colors, so they will match with a large variety of my prints. I started doing this a couple years ago with black sweaters and now have these short sweaters in about 6 or so different colors. This layering combo also works to pair with skinny work pants or skirts for the office.
I wanted to show off how cute these new fave jeans of mine look with heels. Yes these are the same jeans seen HERE with booties and HERE with riding boots. I still need to have them hemmed a bit and plan on taking them in next time I go to Nordstrom. (BTW, if you are a Nordstrom cardholder they hem jeans you buy from them for free. ) The only reason I have not taken them yet is because the last two times I have been I was wearing them. 🙂
I hope ya’ll had a great weekend! I spent mine catching up with friends, watching football, and running just a couple errands. I am off today, so I decided to save all my blog work, weekly meal prep, and laundry for today and just relax during the weekend. I’m working on a fun post for later this week sharing a little about how I stay fit and healthy. So stay tuned for that one, and I hope you have a fabulous week ahead!
