Velvet Tank and Black Skirt

I've worn this tank in many ways over the last year since I bought it. I originally bought it for a holiday outfit, but liked it so much, I wanted to wear it more. I did get pretty uncomfortable on the really hot days during the summer, but the cooler days were just perfect.

So as Thanksgiving got closer and I had to decide what to pack, this option went to the top of the list! I think it looks really cute with this simple black flare skirt. And of course, it's not super warm out, so I added tights and booties.

I also added this tan sweater because I really think adding a black sweater would have been too much black (is that possible? Ben says no.) I think the tan sweater worked really well with the color of the tank and the tan on my booties! How exciting when it all comes together like this! :)

Red Cardigan & Denim Dress

I have a feeling I'm going to get a lot of use out of this sweater this winter. It's really warm and goes with way more in my closet than I originally thought it would. Shopping score!

As it gets colder out, layering is key. So today, I'm wearing this cardigan over my denim dress. Since the dress doesn't really have any shape to it, I like to add this caramel belt to give me some shape and to compliment my booties. It's pretty comfy to wear while decorating the tree (but once the pictures were done, the shoes came off!).

It's a fun, festive outfit for this time of year! And I can't wait to get more use out of this cardigan all winter!

Also, it has pockets!

The Future is Female

I often try to find pieces for my wardrobe that I can layer and get more use out of. Open front sweaters definitely fall into this category. I usually grab neutral colors, so I can throw them over most outfits and still look fine. This is what I had in mind when I found today's sweater. Of course, how soft and warm it is really helped convince me that I needed it even more. :)

Since it's a neutral, I can really wear it with anything. I've defiantly worn it over many of my tops already this Fall. But I think "The Future is Female" tee, is probably my favorite. Of course, I love the saying on the front, but I also really like the color combination of the tee and sweater.

I've paired it with my lighter destroyed denim and Chuck Taylors. It's super comfy and great for running errands or hanging out in. Because it's a bit of a casual outfit, I didn't add any jewelry, keeping it pretty simple and pretty.
