on trend: tights & skirts (or dresses!)

i’ve never been big on tights. or dresses and skirts during the winter. but with my style evolving a bit, i think this is the year these two things will collide.

i absolutely LOVE (yes, capital L-O-V-E) the look and, bonus!, it helps take your other season wardrobe pieces and winterfy (or fallify) them.

here are my favorite looks:

(i, ii, iii, iv)

(v, vi, vii, viii)

you probably have most of the basics to pull this kind of look together – but here it is in a nutshell. remember, you can always shake things up with some accessories, booties vs boots, colored tights, etc.

militaristic

in the fall, you can never go wrong with those classic military hue colors – green, brown and tan. i love a little miliaristic vibe in the colder months that can be softened with long curls and a pair of pearls. i love the structure mixed with playful, feminine pieces that move!

tailgate ready

it’s finally late fall and it’s starting to get really chilly here, especially at 8:30 on sunday mornings when we are tailgating for giants games. since we go to every game i’ve finally got a routine down and thought it could be helpful to share with you my tricks of how i stay warm at football games in the colder months.

i refuse to be the girl who complains about being cold so it’s all about layering, ladies! oh and these bad boys – you’ll definitely want to invest in hand warmers each game – two for your hands, two for your feet.

check out all my tips after the jump!

creme de la creme: get the look

i’ve seen this look floating around pinterest for weeks and just cannot get it out of my head. it’s a great, easy-yet-chic, weekend look that can take you from running some quick errands to brunch to a late lunch before getting ready to go out. throw on a glitzy top for a quick day-to-night (in a pinch) change and you’re evening ready in a jiffy. top it off with a big ballerina bun!
