Camel, cobalt, and plaid

So many of my favorite things here- cobalt, plaid- which one do we talk about? I love that these pants are plaid but still subtle enough for work. I also love that they coordinate with camel and cobalt. Camel and cobalt is one of my favorite fall/ winter color pairings.

Have you jumped straight into winter? The temps dipped pretty low here last week (well low for South Georgia) but today is back around 70. I don't think I can remember it being this cold before Thanksgiving. I do remember wearing short sleeves on Thanksgiving in years past. The seasons here are so unpredictable. I wish it would stay cold for a while. I struggle with business attire for the winter, but I think layering a blazer over a sweater like this outfit works for me. It will be a "go to" formula when we do hit a permanent cold spell.

A statement skirt

Statement necklace, statement heels, statement piece- we are all about making a statement these days. How about a statement skirt? I fell in love with this skirt at the thrift store. I love the rich jewel tones. I've paired it here with a simple white button down and black fitted blazer based on inspiration from Glamour. The white button down is another piece that I am learing to work into my wardrobe. It's always been so boring to me, but it's a nice compliment to a show piece like this skirt.

Here's another look with the Loft skirt I just had to have, thanks to the power of social media. This time I went with one of the looks straight from the remix collage created with it by Everyday Savvy. I think this is my favorite look so far with my denim jacket. I have struggled with styling and wearing a denim jacket. It's one of those things that it seems everyone must have, but yet I struggle with it. I love how it pops with this skirt.

Lightly layered

bracelets- Banana Republic/ Lulus  option
watch- Fossil  similar
Worn Nov. 15, 2014
 
This is one of my favorite "go-to" outfits when it's cold- jeans, riding boots, sweater, button-up. I went with a light flannel button up for some pattern interest. It was actually cool enough Saturday for heavier layers but I knew most of my time would probably be spent indoors and I didn't want to roast indoors. We had Thanksgiving with the in-laws. Both sets of parents tend to crank up the heat when it gets a little cold, so there is no way to dress for the season and be comfortable inside too.

Sweater, scarf, and boots

The temps started dropping again Friday after that 80 degree day I complained about earlier last week, so I took the opportunity to wear some of my seasonal favorites- a sweater, scarf, and boots. I wore the sweater with a pencil skirt HERE when it was warmer. The addition of a scarf and boots with this easy formula let me take this outfit into colder temps.

Pop of color

necklace- vintage
worn Nov. 12, 2014

I've been wearing a lot of black and grey lately (here and here). I love the classic, neutral palette for fall and winter. I added a pop of color with my burgundy shoes.

Here's where I wore these grey pants a while back with another neutral-leopard.



Hope everyone had a great weekend. We got an early start on holiday celebrations by having Thanksgiving with my in-laws Saturday.
