Aztec Prints & Leather Boots

sweater: old navy // dress: ross // leggings: dots // boots: ugg lynnea II // necklace: versona accesssories

My new beloved boots and my favorite blanket sweater made the most comfortable outfit on the PLANET!  This is my third cold season with this sweater. which makes it the most reliable thing in my life.  I've blogged about my extreme love for this sweater before, but I just can't get over it.  No other sweater has since come close to the standards set so high by the flashy little aztec number.

You won't find me cold in the movie theater, not with this baby around.

Also, these boots are the perfect marriage of Ugg boot comfortability and leather bootie fierceness.

I think I found the two items I would definitely grab if there were to be a fire.

Right after the furry black canine, of course.

All Booties, All The Time

tunic: lane bryant // sweater: i ♥ ronson // necklace: eclectic ornaments // 

leggings: tj maxx // shoes: barefoot tess 

Tunics and leggings are one of my favorite grab-and-go outfits year round, but in the winter I love layering them with a oversized sweater! Also, I am trying to incorporate my boot/bootie collection more this season by going against my usual hesitation to wear the wedges/stacked heels on a random weekday.  With my extremely casual job, I kind of feel silly wearing dressier clothes and shoes, but I just love them so much! I have a massive collection of boots and I need to get them in a better rotation! Does anyone else struggle with this problem?  So if you see that girl with a 4 inch heel in the grocery store on a random Thursday... that may be me.

 This time of year is great for many things... the weather, the food, the holidays...

One of my favorite things that happens is the PROMO codes!  Companies flood your email boxes on the daily with promo codes giving great deals 20% off, 30% off, etc, etc.  All the stars align and you can grab the items you have been lusting over since Fall collections hit the stores.

I've already scored some deals in store at Old Navy (this sweater) and my long awaited Sephora splurges will be arriving later this week!  Tis the season, after all!

Let's all pause to freak out... 40 days until Christmas!

Do you know about any promo code/in store deals I may not know about? 

Let me know in the comments.

Black on Black

 dress (as skirt): asos // sweater: thrifted // scarf: gift // purse: target // wedges: payless

Yesterday (aka when these pictures were taken) was one of those days where as soon as I left the house, I wished I had worn sweatpants and a baggy tee.  The worst part of that is... I actually can do that in my line of work (glorified babysitter.)  I choose to put forth effort every day because I love getting dressed (and clothes are the most fun thing ever.)  

Today I wished I had a sweater blanket & a whole day to binge on Netflix and cookies.

Sigh.  Don't worry though, I broke world records getting in the door, in to my pajamas, and threw cookies in the oven.

All is right in the world again.

Pin-spired

 dress: asos // sweater: thrifted // necklace: eclectic ornaments // booties: lane bryant

Truth be told, this outfit was inspired by this pin on Pinterest.  I did not have the patience to get the belt to work with this before I started twirling around in the dress (bad habit.) Also, I am completely convinced I need to get more sweaters.  During my shopping lunch hour yesterday, I perused the Old Navy choices and they have a lot going on.  Sequin cardis, embellished sweatshirts, hello gorgeousness!

I need more sweater ammo in my closet.  Have you seen any sweaters or sweatshirts rockin' your world lately? Please share.

Hi y'all.  Happy Friday Tuesday! I am pretty excited about today because it is my last work day of the week! Happy Thanksgiving break to this teacher lady! I thought I loved breaks from school when I was in school, but now that I am teaching I look forward to them even more.  Crazy concept, eh? HA!Our weather has been crazy wackadoo here lately.  Humid, 70 degrees plus, and not at all like the fall I want!  I ended up shedding the sweater mid-day!  I'm not saying I'm craving snow fall, but some consistent brisk afternoons would be nice.
Reminder: I'd love for you all to send me your tunic pictures for tomorrow's Wear*It Wednesday!EMAIL ME :)
And just in case today is not your Friday: here's a friendly reminder from this merrymaker:
