A little spring

The temps rise and I start feeling the need to dress more like spring. I kept it this outfit a little on the wintery side with the pants and cardigan, but added some color with the top. Even though I was a hot mess from running around in the wind all day, I really liked how this outfit turned out.

Worn Feb. 19, 2016

 

This combination of marsala (burgundy) sweater (worn before here)  and camel pants (with navy and red here ) just screamed to have leopard with it. I could have added my leopard pumps but went with the lower heel nude ones and pulled in the leopard with the clutch. I spent some of my Christmas money on the clutch after wanting and searching for one for over a year. The Clare V is out of my budget for a clutch. I carry a clutch as a fun bag on the weekends, but it doesn't serve me much during the work week. Totes are better suited for that.

 

What's your favorite bag choice?

 

Hope you had a great weekend. We spent it working on taxes, some photography projects and scrapbooking.

A touch of serenity

earrings - Sears  option  option

 

A great purse or satchel in serenity is an easy way to add a touch of the color of the year to your wardrobe. I couldn't resist pairing this purse against the harder stellar blue and grey in my outfit. And who says you can't wear white in winter? I love this blazer as much for winter as I do summer. I ordered three pair of these pants from Loft during one of their holiday sales. So far I love them, but they are a heavier weight and I won't be able to wear them year round. Sad about that.

 

Don't forget that Savvy Southern Chic is now on Instagram. I'd love for you to follow me. You'll get a peeks of style, food, and maybe occasionally something crafty. I'd love to get back into scrapbooking this year. Do you have a hobby you've forsaken and would like to get back into this year?

I  last wore this print top with purple and brown. This time I paired it with lighter colored trousers and chose to accent the teal in the top with the cardigan. The color changes make it look like a totally different top.

 

Are you ready for Thanksgiving? Have you finished your shopping, or are you yet to start? Will you be Black Friday shopping? There have already been some good deals and sales. I think they start earlier every year, but that's fine with me. Just curious, do you get your gifts on Black Friday or shop for yourself?

worn October 30, 2015

 

I'm still infatuated with this purse and this necklace. I'm still using inspiration from Bridgette Raes  on how to use these pieces but doing my own mix and matching and substituting pants for the skirt.

 I also find myself unintentionally carrying a water bottle or tumbler that matches or coordinates with my outfit. I don't do it intentionally. I drink only water or coffee and take a water bottle every day to work. I have blue, green, orange and pink and often find that the one I pull from the cabinet matches my outfit. I couldn't resist including my monogrammed Tervis tumbler in my photos when I realized how well it matched my outfit. If you need a gift idea for someone, these tumblers would make a great gift. Get a plain tumbler and have it monogrammed in your color choice and purchase a matching lid. Lids come in all colors.


Here's a look at a couple of looks from September with the purse and necklace:
