Ageless Style: Styling Booties for the Holiday Season

The holiday season is officially upon us and what better way then to kick it off with a holiday style outfit idea! This months Ageless Style prompt was booties and I couldn't wait to share these white ones with you all! Recently Mr. and I finally went out on a date night and I was excited to finally pull out my pair of white booties. Last winter/spring I searched all over the place for a pair of white booties but had no luck locally, so this year when I stumbled upon these online on major sale I snagged them up quickly. I love booties and have several pairs including black, navy, snakeskin, burgundy, and now white. More than any other style, the bootie is my favorite ranging from low ankle to more mid-calf like these ones. I love them paired with skinny jeans, leggings and a oversized sweater/sweater dress, or with a maxi or midi-skirt like I am styling here. I adore how this outfit came together and I was able to shop my closet for everything other than the new booties! This metallic print skirt has been one of the best pieces I've purchased because it elevates any outfit and it's perfect for the holiday season. I've styled it multiple times in various seasons including summer, fall, and winter, see HERE and HERE. Since we don't go out a lot, I went all out by adding all my sparkly jewelry from Hillberg and Berg including these rose gold earrings and stackable bracelets.

What did we do for date night? We went on a double date with good friends to the Imagine Van Gogh exhibit in town. At first I wasn't sure that I wanted to spend the $ on this event but I am so glad we did. It was an incredible experience and I truly would recommend it. It's an immersive experience as you place yourself in the middle of a large space and watch Van Gogh's art come to life as projections on oversized screens. We ended up watching the show twice from different parts of the space to have the chance to take it all in. Before entering the art exhibit you have a chance to read and learn about Van Gogh's life and the ups and downs that he went through in his short 37 years of it. A very talented man haunted by schizophrenia, and in the end he ended up taking his own life with a revolver. His work depicted how he saw himself, the people around him, and the various places he visited and lived in his life. He found so much beauty in his observations and feelings of day to day life. As this is a traveling exhibit it's likely going to be near you if you live in Canada or United States and I would highly recommend going.

Now make sure you hop over to see everyone else styling their booties in different ways across the country with the ladies of Ageless Style!

Wintery White Outfit

Are you team monochromatic or team mix and match? Well, guess what?!? You can love it all! Usually I am not a matchy- match girl, but I love everything about this look to be honest. I knew when I bought the tensely fuzzy skirt and crop top outfit, see it together here, that I would be using the skirt a lot on it's own for work, date nights and winter events. I stumbled upon this sweater on sale right after Christmas and I love how it pairs well with trousers, jeans, skirts, or over dresses in winter. It's super versatile. Once I put the two pieces together I instantly knew that my white boots and wool coat would complete this look with the gold accessories to add a pop of classy color. And how about this caramel quilted purses that was gifted to me? Isn't it gorgeous! Best part is that the quality of this Italian made purse is amazing. I absolutely love the gold accents in the clasp and also on the strap which you can wear long, short on your forearm, or tuck in and use as a clutch instead. It's quickly become a favorite of mine.

Have a great week friends and remember to pop back in on Thursday for the Ageless Style link-up and check out how we are styling the theme of kindness.

Styling My Way Through a Corn Maze: White Jeans Outfit #2

One of my favorite family traditions that we have as a family is going to Youth Bible Corn Maze in Rosthern. Years ago we stumbled upon it somehow and just kept returning to it time and time again, until it became a fall tradition for our family, read about last years adventures here. Over the years have watched the business grow and include more and more things to do and explore. There are the two corn mazes, kids and adults, petting zoo, climbing wall, pumpkin patch picture area, train rides, etc. We've done it all over the many years we've gone but the last two years the exciting thongs for the girls have been conquering both mazes and finding all four secret stamps. This year we started in the adult maze because it took us forever last year, like a solid hour, but this year we found the three stamps within the first 15 minutes. We just got really lucky but then we ventured into the kids maze feeling pretty cocky and it took us at least a half-hour to find the one stamp. I guess you just never know when you'll get lucky and choose all the right turns and when you wont. Hahaha. Either way we got all four stamps and the kids were thrilled! What a wonderful way to spend a glorious Sunday afternoon as a family.

Now on to the outfit. If you stopped by last Friday you know that I have three ways to wear white jeans in the fall, see outfit #1 HERE. For the corn maze I used country style for inspiration. It was the white jeans that I started with when picking out this outfit, it was that I really wanted to wear my cowboy boots that don't get a lot of love in the city. That was my starting point and then my plaid shirt complements the colors on the cowboy boots so well, plus is PLAID (enough said). Because I layered a black tank underneath so I could knot tie my shirt without belly showing, I figured the white jeans were the perfect contrast and pop of color for this outfit. I absolutely love how easy, relaxed, natural and perfectly this outfit came together for this particular event. Honestly I really wanted to just go all causal and natural, minimal make-up (foundation, mascara and lip chap ) and blow-dried my hair, that's it. This look would work for any country outing, pumpkin patch, apple patch, zoo trip or a stroll through the woods.

I hope you all enjoy your weekend. We are off to spend time with our friends in Regina and big news coming from the Krienke family next week on IG.

Ageless Style: Ponchos, Puppies and Sweater Dresses

Hello Ageless Style friends and followers. Welcome to the middle of February!!!! This month is flying by and I am a-okay with that. I am sorry that I have been MIA for a week but I ended up kind of taking an unplanned break from lots of things in my day to day life including social media, blogging, rigorous exercise, and daily tasks. I just hit a wall and allowed myself to ride it out for 5 days, which left me feeling refreshed and excited to reclaim my routine. So I am back!

Today I am teaming up with the lovely ladies form the Ageless Style series to show our interpretations of Joanne's, from my Slices of Life blog, prompt of capes & ponchos. A few weeks ago, Oreo girl went to get a little pampering at the groomers and had a bath and a cut around the face, ears and feet, and we decided to take photos while we were downtown. It was actually not too cold and perfect for a sweater dress and poncho look. If you live in milder winters, I think this is the perfect layered look especially for a winter to spring transition outfit. In all honestly, here its much too cold to be without a wool coat, mittens and a beanie, but come late March, I maybe could pull this off in real time. I love, the colors in this look, and the white boots made a comeback, see another way to style them here. This sweater dress is a favorite and so very warm. It's a heavier blend and perfect for winter dressing up. The ponchos pastel colors add just the amount of color without taking over the outfit, and letting the jewelry kind of shimmer and shine. For a more casual poncho style look check here.

I loved how this prompt came together and even more glad that I dug out my poncho out of my closet. It really hasn't been styled much this fall/winter. Are you still holding on to your poncho, scarves or capes, or do you feel they are out of style these days?

Make sure to link-up your favorite outfits below and check out all the other ladies and their styles. Also, next week my family and I are off on a vacation to the mountains. A much anticipated trip, especially since we ended up canceling our trip to Mexico. I will not be posting next Monday but I will be back on Monday, Feb. 28th. Make sure to follow us along on IG!
