A little pattern mixing never hurt nobody!!

Each piece of this outfit is a classic, yet all together, they feel new and fresh! I’ve had the sweater, coat and skort for at least a year, but this is the first time I’m putting them all together. I love reimagining items I’ve had in my closet and making them feel new again.

Now, let’s see what you can come up with in your closet! Ready, set, go!

Thanks for stopping by, and as always, shop the links above to recreate my look!

Let’s spring forward

Who else is ready for spring? Spring inventory is arriving at work, it’s everywhere online and my newsfeed is covered with spring break posts. All we need is the warmer weather! As cute as this coat is, I think I’m ready to retire it until next fall. I can’t wait for sundresses and sandals. I’m sure as soon as the Dallas summer heat arrives, I’ll be regretting I ever said this.

This blouse and these jeans are great transition pieces as the seasons change. Throw on your favorite tee and sandals with this distressed straight leg. Tuck the gauze polka dot blouse into your white skinnies, and add an espadrille for another spring look!

Accessorize with a brooch

Elevate your winter coat with a vintage brooch. You can find them at consignment stores, on Etsy and in your grandmother’s jewelry box, but don’t take before asking! I received this vintage Chanel brooch for Christmas, and I’ve had a lot of fun styling it. I haven’t worn brooches much until now, but I love how they can complete any outfit.

I bought this coat at Zara last weekend in Chicago, and of course I can’t find it online. I did link some other fabulous plaid coats, so you can recreate my look. Now is a great time to buy a coat because many are on sale! The booties were a Christmas gift from last year, so I can’t find them either.

Thanks for stopping by!
