Winter Wonders

Rounding up some of my favorite things to wear during the coldest of months! From textures like faux fur and tweed, to accessories that spark wonder, this is my round up of magic must haves to rock before spring layers start!! 

The puffer coats!!! Have you seen my take on the “Are you from New York Even” reel!! I couldn’t help myself…it made me belly laugh!! Anyway…ANY color works for a puffer ! (I only could find the short version of my puffer!!) They are a go to for the super cold days!

Faux fur is a favorite!! Especially when it comes to winter accessories!! They bring drama and ski lodge vibes to any look!! Fell in LOVE with the way a simple tank, and silk slip skirt ( which is going to be perfect for spring vibes) paired so well with a moto and this hat!!

Texture is where it’s at!! From feathers with tweed or lace, you can’t go wrong with adding lusious fabrics and details that will give you a winter way beyond normal!!! Start getting your color pops out there cause it’s everywhere this spring!!! 

Tights are terrific! These fleece lined tights are an absolute Gem for winter months!! They allow you to wear that short skirt that will be oh so popular this spring as a pop of fun now!

Capes..especially sweater capes are the best transitional piece from winter to spring!!!! A color combo that I can’t get enough of is this turqoise and red!! Yes please!!!! All the spring runways are showing color pops…so POP it!

Fancy short skirts are the perfect pairing for a sweater! Lifts your spirits for better weather on it’s way and introduces spring trends on the horizon! 

So as the season starts to show promise of nicer weather lets bust out these wonders before we say it’s too hot to wear them!!

Cozy and comfy, but keep it colorful!

As the snow rises and the temps drop, I gravitate towards layers with hoodies, scarfs, hats, sneakers and sweatpants! So let’s get into color pops that will keep a smile on your face a little pep in your step!

Easy as black and white with a little pop of color!! Try neon with this combo for a little unexpected and exciting pop!! What’s your favorite color? Add it anywhere you can!!! Remember fashion is to lift your spirits!

Deciding to go outside or not..I think I will just stay right here on my stairs and wear my purple sparkle hat! Look for accessories with lots of colors!! This way you can use neutrals like black and tans to marry the colors!!

I have to say that my new jean and sherpa jacket from my Hubby was a wonderful surprise!! I was so happy to see how easily it paried with all the creams, tans and of course, YES you guessed it, color pops!!! My best accessory is my Son of course!!

Now this match was a happy and unexpected marriage between burgandy and rainbow!! It acted as a newutral for sure!! AND I LOVED how the rainbow buffalo check and rainbow houndstooth popped each other!!! Adding the neon pink pants created a balance for you to look head to toe!

The last cozy comfy look includes my favorite new sneakers and some tie dye sweatpants. When thinking about how to pair colors like a neon, I get in the mind frame of monochromatic!! Remind yourself that any shade of any color is perfect for a pairing and considered the same just a different “shade”!

Go ahead and get creative with your coziest and comfiest of your waredrobe!

Holiday looks

I have rounded up some creative, fun and may I add merry looks to get you through anything that may come up on your calendar this holiday season! Keep in mind that sparkle of any kind, texture, plaids, prints and sparkle should and can be incorporated in any day looks!

A little pop of red can go a really long way!! Everything else black to frame the plaid!!

Nothing like a red plaid cape!! Red is of course a holiday staple!!! Add some gold pops to kick it up a notch!

Go all red for a super sweet monochromatic holiday vibe!!! Add some 4′ candy canes…take a bite into the holidays!!!

If all else fails go plaid with black accessories!! Put a little pearl twist for a classic vibe!!!

Turn classic plaid up with Graffiti or large black and white print!! Sprinkle in red, red, and red for a wonderful brilliant bright pop!! Don’t forget to layer on your sparkle!

Turn your tulle skirt into a top with some plaid leggings and great gold pops like a jacket and heels!

So get out everything plaid, gold, sparkle and metallic! Create looks that will be edgy, bright and brings holiday glam turned up to fabulousness!!

Until next style,

Styled by winter

Who is your stylist? For me the season ALWAYS sways my wardrobe!! Change your accessories…change your look!! When I want a different vibe I invest in accessories! Color combos, textures and some added bling elevates and keeps me feeling ready to take on the day!

A few of my favorites! Having some fun in reels! Do you reel?

Look for color combos that inspire you!! On Instagram my eye kept noticing light blue and red. My burgundy beanie and scarf popped so well with my mint blouse. I call this my winter Mermaid. I have linked similar or same throughout! Look for the bold!

Texture hat, texture mittens, texture coat!…Matchy Mathy Matchy!! Fall in love?…wear it head to toe!

Do a bright pop! Get your winter boots in a color that excites! Try different shaped frames for an instant pick me up! In addition you will NEVER hear me say “That’s too many brooches”.

Having multicolor pops in your accessories goes with everything!! I also adore how purple is such a great neutral for all colors to tie together

If you like earth tones go with pops of gold. Textures like chenille create a rich cozy feel!

Shake things up with pops of cheetah! Go bold with sunglasses and chains or have fun with print mixing!

Find a staple like leopard in a new and enlightening color! Light pink brings a smile to face!

Sticking to black and white is always a safe way to know your accessories will be in style for years to come.

Or go cream, white with Camel. These colors create a lush and luxurious vibe with textures that are ready for a blizzard!

If you want to try colors add them with a brooch or gloves!! Try blue, it works well with neutrals and creams!

Sometimes the best accessories are the people by your side!

Remember that you don’t have to buy a new wardrobe to create new looks. Look for accessories! If you have a red hat the next time you are surfing the web for sales look for a perfect pair of matching gloves!! Know what you have so you are not repeating.
