St. Patrick's Day Green

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I always love this holiday because it reminds me that spring is on the way! When I was little, I always looked for four leaf clovers in the grass, and every time I saw a rainbow believed there was a pot-of-gold at the end. Whatever your traditions are, make the most of them! I make sure to wear green on this day each year. Today, I chose a military-inspired jacket for a casual look.

Rusty

{Pants: Gap | Jacket: William Rast | Shirt: Gap | Jewelry: Alex & Ani | Watch: MK | Necklace: Vintage | Booties: Nordstrom, similar here}

There's something about rusty buildings that I love. When I found this one to shoot in front of, I thought it was the perfect backdrop for this outfit.

I bought this leather jacket a few years back - last seen here - and I find it goes with mostly anything. There's something soft and sexy about the elephant color of the jacket and booties. Really screams spring to me!

Happy Friday!

Boyfriend Jeans

{Blazer: ABS | Jeans: Gap Boyfriend | Shoes: Betsy Johnson | Sweater: Forever | Bracelet: DY }

Since it's chilly and snowy outside, I decided to stay in for these photos.

I really love the idea of dressing up a simple pair of jeans - like the boyfriend. It's a classic, yet sophisticated look. I feel I have always struggled with ways to wear my boyfriend jeans.

If you're having trouble styling your boyfriend jeans, think about dressing them up a bit. Add a pair of pumps or wedges for a more feminine look.

Last Minute Winter

Coat: Nordstrom (Sold Out) | Jeans: AG | Top: Forever | Hat: Nordstrom (Similar Here) | Boots: Boutique 9 (Old, Similar Here) | Scarf: Nordstrom | Glasses: Ray Ban |

This week, I tried to show PRACTICAL outfits. While I would love to live in a warm climate, that's just not the case for me. I can't frolic around with bare legs, no coat and little heels. At least until spring, we should try to get the most out of what's in our closet, because once spring and summer arrive, we will be saying "bye bye" to some of those favorite winter items.

While I've mostly been in Sorel boots to fight the cold and snow, I decided to pull a pair of leather boots out that I haven't seen in a while. I added a pop of color with this great wrap/scarf that my fiance got  me for Christmas this year.

Dust off some items in your closet and pull them out before it's too late! What are some of your last minute winter wears?

Barn Red

Jacket: BB Dakota | Shirt: J Crew | Jeans: Gap | Boots: Nordstrom

Despite the bitter cold temperatures and lots of snow this winter, we have had a surprising amount of sunshine. I took advantage of it, and enjoyed an outdoor shoot this weekend.

I love the simple look of a denim shirt and leather jacket. I recently purchased this great faux leather jacket from BB Dakota. It's the only one that I own that is actually a color, and I have already worn it with a bunch of different outfits!

What are your favorite layering pieces?

Hope everyone's having a great week!
