Winter Style: Pom Toques and Plaid Shirts






My favorite part of this outfit is well EVERYTHING .  How cute are these matching pom toques that the girls and I scored at Urban Planet for $2 right after Christmas?!?  I was wearing this outfit when we went to the mall so the girls could spend their xmas money, and well, we all  ended up walking out dressed as triplets.  THIS NEVER HAPPENS so I rejoiced  and documented.  


Over the holidays I seized the opportunity away  from the office to wear my favorite jeans that have been  collecting dust in my closet since early fall.  As promised, I've been wearing my closet and I love how this outfit came together.  I would normally deem the cropped, step-hem, distressed jeans as spring-fall wear but that's just because I never thought to pair them up with cute little booties.  I can't believe I didn't think of this combination before.



One of my favorite pieces is this plaid shirt that I've had for a couple of years now.  I wear it to the office tucked into a skirt, under a sweater and dress pants, with pearls, etc.  For this outing I paired it up with a lightweight gray sweater, because gray is my new favorite neutral.  




This coat was a 'new to me' purchase through a local buy and sell.  I love the deep, purple color, the over sized brown buttons, and the large waist belt.  Do you ever shop second hand or do a girlfriend clothing swap? It's so fun to get new stuff without breaking the bank. 




What's your favorite casual, weekend, outfit combination?

  1. I live in jeans but a favourite is one of the fall 16 gypo outfits..the sweatshirt and baggy trackies. Cute girls. It's getting cold here next week so maybe I'll get into winter clothes. We've had a winter like Florida in Sussex.

    1. I think I remember that outfit. Who doesn't love baggy pants and sweatshirt, it's the perfect weekend, winter combo. I can't say that our winter has been mild but we are trying to make the very best of it.

  3. That's so cute that you guys all ended up with the same beanie! Too cute! I love shopping for coats secondhand - especially on ThredUp. I just got an Express coat that I can't wait to arrive! Looks like your "shop my closet" challenge is going well!

    1. I remember reading about ThredUp and it sounds amazing. I have to admit that I am not very good at shopping in consignment stores locally as we don't have many but I do want to check out ThredUp. I like the idea of shopping without leaving my home.
