Winter Florals and Ankle Biker Boots

I'm always on the lookout for great winter long sleeves.  When I'm getting ready in the morning, I always find myself looking for something that will be warm and comfortable, yet I still want it to have a stylish flare. This shirt was actually a Kohl's find from Simply Vera - Vera Wang. I find that her line can be overpriced for Kohl's, but if you can catch it on sale, she has some great pieces.  For tonight's post I wanted to focus on this floral long sleeve with winter coloring.  Its hard to tell from the pictures, but this shirt has a layered front.  Also, the seams along the side of the shirt are cinched and the finishing touch is the sheer blue material along the neckline. 


If you have time this weekend, take a stroll through Kohl's and flip through the racks! 

For the bottom half of my outfit, I paired basic dark jeans with great ankle biker boots.  If you haven't been paying attention, black biker style ankle boots are very trendy right now.  I picked this Franco Sarto pair up at Marshall's right before Christmas.  I love the leather wrap around the ankle and the brushed silver heel strap.  Here is a very similar pair, the top half of my boots are suede material versus all leather. 


Tip: Find yourself a pair of black pull on biker ankle boots!

Summer White and a Pop of Coral

This look was one of my favorites of the summer so far!  You can't go wrong with white pants in the summer months, almost any top will look great!  For this outfit I wore skinny white jeans - almost like a legging - and paired a bright coral/peachy sleeveless top.  My favorite detail of this shirt is the sheer shoulders, I think it gives great contrast to the rest of the fabric.  Since this outfit is pretty bright on its own, I kept the shoes toned down for the office with a pair of flat sandals.  Although flat and a beige color, these sandals have a really cute cutout look!  To snaz it up a bit for going out later that night I simply added a pair of wedges for some height and style.  The color just so happened to match perfectly :)




















I kept the jewelry simple with my go to silver necklace and this neat braided bracelet.  More to come on where I found it later :)

Where did my look come from?  My entire outfit (both shoes) came from my favorite store - what can I say, I am a Marshalls girl!

Cuffed blazer and bold floral

I'm in love with my new blazer - read below to find out where I got it! - the subtle pin stripe and cuffed sleeves give it some style. I paired it with a bold floral shirt underneath, perfect for giving this look a little pop!  I love the fit of this shirt, scoop neck and fitted at the top and draped and flowy at the bottom. I added a long gold layered necklace and my everyday chunky gold watch.

For the bottom I chose gray straight leg corduroys and a new pair of cute Tahari flats. They were a $25 find at Marshalls!  I chose the fitted pants because the shirt is a little long and less fitted.

Tomorrow's weather looks amazing! I saw 87 degrees in the forecast for RI!

Monday... check.

Back home after a long day, I wanted to get tonights post up earlier than usual for you to take a peak at.  BTW the feather necklace from today was a huge hit, scroll down if you missed it.

This look is for spring, but I think its time to pull it out.  Sheer blouses are all over the place right now so make sure you get some in your closet.  I picked up this one at Marshalls, $16.99!  While its mostly tan, I love the floral pattern all over it - subtle but adds some color!  I'm obsessed with the back, isn't the extra detail hanging over the shoulders and back so cute?!  I have to admit, thats what sold me.  With this color scheme I think gold goes best so I have paired a crossbody purse with it, the olive green color nicely compliments the shirt.  For jewelry I'm going to stick with gold and go with a layered piece.  I like to add layered necklaces to shirts like this to add dimension.  I'm sure I'll be sporting my chunky gold watch and some bangles to match.  

It was FREEZING today so I think I'm going to pull out skinny pants and throw boots back on for tomorrow.  Either a brown or tan boot would be perfect with this outfit.

Tip: Add sheer to your wardrobe.
