Winterizing Ripped Denim

I love the look of ripped denim with stilettos, but on the morning after a snowstorm, the thought of anything but boots/booties was just unrealistic. This pair of jeans from the Gap is rapidly becoming my go-to pair!

Sometimes things just work out. Take this outfit for instance. I do this thing where I shop and shop, and then just leave my purchases in their bags and forget about them. Some may call it a problem, I call it..safe storage? Every now and then, I remember and unveil purchases from the past..this time, the three items just happened to work together oh so perfectly. I think I now understand the connection that is sought after by all contestants on "The Bachelor".

Tweedheart

There are a few things that are good about the Fall and no, I'm not referring to Pumpkin Spice anything. 

1. The line between a skirt that's borderline too short all of a sudden seems ok with dark tights.

2. The incorporation of textured fabrics into your wardrobe.

I took advantage of both of these seasonal benefits in today's outfit. Although I paired the tweed-esque skirt and top combo together, you could still incorporate texture into your outfit one piece at a time.

Holiday Staples

The holidays, a time where your weekends fill up with meet and greets and your bellies fill up with yummy treats! Although the holidays are fun, there is some added stress there with deciding what to wear to all of the events, this is where I come in..here are the 5 holiday staples that will surely take you through the season.

1. Fun Skirt
A black skirt is functional and all but why not add some fun detail that will make you stand out?! This faux-leather number will make for a great alternative to the usual go-to.

2. The Dress
Having a dress handy is a no-brainer..and a dress that resembles a candy cane? Well that's just brilliant! This fit and flare silhouette is flattering for all figures!

3. Statement Necklace
The easiest way to dress up that little black dress is with some jewels. So why not look like Elizabeth Taylor, dazzle yourself in jewels..and get married 8 times while you're at it.

4. Sweater
Living in Canada, it is cold.. very cold. This 100% cotton sweater by Halifax local brand NIXE is so comfy and so warm that it has become my go-to sweater and I'll def be wearing it while building gingerbread houses..demolishing other people's houses..and eating the rest of the people's houses.   

5. Cuff
I enjoy stacking bracelets as much as the next girl, but with the sequins and sparkles that tend to come with the festive season, a classic simple cuff is an essential to get you from day to night. I love this dark silver double cuff because though it is simple and unique, it fills up my wrist without jingling alongside the bells.
