Winter Pastels

Kimono {c/o}: Wool Blend Plaid Kimono Style Jacket | Jeans {c/o}: Hudson 

Hey dolls!  Happy Monday!  FINALLY, a new post!  Who says you can't wear pastels in the winter season?!   If the winter blues has you wearing grey and black on repeat, change it up!  Soft pink and baby blues are trending everywhere.  Pantene even chose these 2 colors as the colors for 2016!  Don't shy away from light colors, try a clutch or a belt for a subtle pop!

Happy first day of FALL!  I Can't believe summer is officially over.  My heart hurts a little.  I'll miss you summer!  My weekend was uneventful but I did go to dinner with the hubby.  Even though it's Fall the weekend was rather warm so the sheer lace sleeves on this peplum blouse from OASAP was perfect.  I added red pumps for that pop of color.  I wanted to wear a red lippy, but I thought it would have been to matchy matchy, So I went more nude.  What do you think?  Should I have done a red lip?  Well folks, I hope your Monday is short and sweet!

Happy Monday dolls!  Hope you all had a great weekend!  As usual their always too short.  It was a super rainy weekend here in NJ.  Just sharing one of my easy rainy day outfits with you.  My rainy day essentials have to be my rain booties and my bubble umbrella.  I was on the hunt for this umbrella for a while.  I was so happy to find it at Target.  

 

I wish I had a better picture of my fabulous Kate Spade Crossbody.  I won it on a giveaway and this weekend was the first time I wore it.  Its sooo pretty and the leather is buttery soft.  I'm sure I'll wear it again soon. 

 

 

Have a happy day sweets!

No coat, no boots?  Not tomorrow!  Wore this outfit last weekend when the weather was fabulous.  It's been freezing ever since.  Tomorrow supposedly is going to be the coldest day of the week with the temp only getting up to 24.  Oh and a major snow storm next week.  This polar vortex is for the birds.  Oh well, I'm sure in a few months I'll be complaining about how hot it is.  #neverhappy

 

What does make me happy is this super cute top from LC!  Wearing my heart on my sleeves, literally!  Of course I layered it, layering is key!

Mondays suck, but they suck even more in the snow! 

Yup it's snowing and I'm sitting here blogging, and dreaming of warmer weather.  The weather on the weekend was beyond gorgeous!  High 40's, sun shining....just perfect! 

 

What did you guys think of the super bowl?  I thought Bruno Mars was excellent!  The game on the other hand was wickedy wack!  Hopefully my Giants will make it next year! #fingerscrossed

 

 I'm loving everything plaid right now.  Scarves, tops, and even hats!  I wore this on game day, and no I didn't wear green or orange.  I wore red and blue in honor of my team.  GO GIANTS!
