Most of the outfits on the blog are outfits I wore on a weekday or for church. Sometimes I get a little more creative in my closet and share an outfit that I do not end up wearing, especially when I share how to wear something several ways. Today, I wanted to share some of my favorite daily outfits from January. I really do enjoy putting together outfits in the colder months because it allows me to play with textures and layers. Navy I love how I finding unique pieces while thrifting. The dress on the left is a Vince Camuto dress I thrifted in Chattanooga without the belt and…

When I started brainstorming ideas for blog posts from the month of January,  different micro trends were mentioned including layering button downs under different pieces in your closet. As you may have noticed, trends and micro trends are really nothing new, they typically cycle an old idea with a new name in an attempt to have us shop more. But quite often, we can look through our closet and find something that fits the trends that appeal to us. Animal prints? We all have them! Brown? We probably own something in brown! Since I am on another shopping break till Feb 1st, I shopped my closet for a new to…

Sometimes, an outfit is so good, you have to repeat it. Last month, we took an overnight trip to North Georgia and I decided to wear this outfit which I wore exactly in the same manner (minus the shoes) last January (here). The outfit is second all the way minus the earrings. It is one of those outfits that thanks to the neutral tones of it makes me feel put together while being really cozy thanks to the fuzzy vest. When we arrived at the Brasstown Valley Resort, we checked in and dropped our bags and the boys and I then went for a walk. We did not cover the…

One of my goals this winter was to find a red coat as I had donated the one I had owned for years last year. It wasn’t my style anymore as it was more of an oversized fit and I was ready to part with it. With that goal in mind, I went thrifting one day in December. I have this love for layers even though it doesn’t stay cold very long here. Yes, we do wake up with temperatures in the teens sometimes, but it usually warms up to the 30s or even 50s that same day. Of course, we do have some days that it stays cold all…

I may like to wear some fun outfits, but I also enjoy wearing a simple outfit too!  I wore this skirt this fall for a date look on my anniversary trip and knew I wanted to wear it again in the winter! I actually wore it on a cold fall afternoon a couple weeks ago, and decided to take advantage of of slow traffic downtown caused by a train on the tracks to take pictures outside the building of the Western museum. I went for a simple look wearing a nice knit sweater from Loft my friend gave me recently, and chose my black boots to reflect the black in…

I thrifted this sweater a couple weeks before our Thanksgiving break and loved the color and how soft it was. I hesitated because I wasn’t sure if I could wear it solo, but decided it would be fun to play with since it was like nothing in my closet. For this outfit, I wore it with a Halftee under, but felt like I needed a tank top under since my jeans were not as high waisted as I thought. I will try that next as well as wear it backwards with a pendant. When I packed for this trip, I knew it would be colder at the end of the…

I love coming up with different outfits for the holiday season and Christmas without resorting to a red and green thematic outfit. Over the years, I have worn teal, burgundy, silver and different textured fabrics like velvet to create some festive outfits. Today, I am sharing two outfits with a gold Sweater I thrifted for a dollar this fall. I wore the skirt outfit last Sunday to church. Gold Sweater with Velvet Joggers When I buy a special piece like this gold Sweater, whether it is thrifted or not, I want to make sure I can style it not only for a special occasion or a dressy look, but also…
