Happy Wednesday!

I hope everyone's week is going well!

I've been on the hunt for corduroy skinny jeans for a long time. While grabbing dinner with a girlfriend, we wandered into Anthropologie and came across these burgundy colored pants. Burgundy is the "it" color of the season. I'm 5'6'', not really tall, but for some reason it's challenging to find pants that are long enough. These pants are the perfect length and don't lose their shape. Anthropologie carries these pants in seven different colors and patterns. Let's just say, I want EVERY one!

When wearing colored or patterned pants, pair with the same clothes as you would any regular denim. These pants look great with a black blazer, black boots, and a leopard print scarf. Or with a chunky grey sweater. Don't be afraid to mix different textures, patterns, and prints when wearing colored pants.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving break!

Today's post will be a little shorter. I think I'm still in a turkey and wine haze from the last couple of days...

A few weeks back, Nordstrom had their Half-Yearly Sale. I went a little crazy. 40% off of great brands. Ummm...yes, please! The minute I came across this sweater, I had to have it. A total statement piece. This sweater is a play on a classic draped sweater, but with a twist. 

This sweater can we worn every season. Layer over a white button up shirt when it gets colder. Over a red pencil skirt and heels. With white pants. Or over a dress. 

Thanks for reading!
