Sunday Style: Faux Fur

I'm back to writing my weekly Sunday Style post now that Style Me December is over! 

I recently discovered the faux fur trend and my love for wearing it! I never bothered to try this before but this year I decided to go out of my comfort zone and give it a spin. I was looking for a vest that was light brown but really couldn't find one that I loved. Then I found this leopard print faux fur vest at Banana Republic. I loved this one because it was different and had a pattern and would look good with solids or prints. My husband bought it for me for Christmas and this weather is the perfect time to use it! (While I am writing this article on Sunday, this look was from yesterday when it was actually sunny and not snowing here!)

I paired the vest with a monogram sweater from Old Navy and a plaid from there as well. I also wore my favorite pair of skinny jeans and riding boots. For a little bit more glam, I also added my favorite statement necklace from very Jane. I also am carrying the taupe satchel from Phillip Lim for Target. It was a simple and fun look for me and was perfect for our outing to the movies and dinner with friends! 

Here are some of my favorite pics of this outfit. Enjoy! 




I just can't get enough of this vest! I will be wearing this a lot more, especially with the 2014 closet remix challenge that I am doing! How else would you wear this vest? I have some other ideas planned, but would love to hear yours! 

Enjoy the rest of your weekend! Thanks for reading and following along!

    You look absolutely wonderful! Everything is perfect from the layers, the fur vest and the bling. A fur vest was always something on my wishlist, but never found one that I loved. If I had a fur vest I would like to layer it over a dress with some tights and boots. I will live vicariously through your fur vest since I am doing the 2014 closet remix challenge too :) Stay warm!

      Thanks Heather! I appreciate that! I got the black one back In November with Kohks cash and got this one for Christmas so I'm set. However, I struggled to find one I liked for a long time! When I looked for one, they were usually sold out! I'm liking the idea of dress and tights- I actually have a black wrap dress that I thought would look nice with it or a purple one.

Sunday Style: Green

Image
Green is my favorite color. I think it brings out the color in my eyes and it looks great with my skin tone.There's lots of sayings with green in them too. Give the green light. Green thumb. Going green. (Make no mistake- I didn't say Go Green- that's for all you Spartan fans out there). Green around the gills. Green with envy- well, don't be green with envy but I am sitting here in sunny Florida enjoying the warm weather and time with family and friends... This green dress has been hanging in my closet for a while but this was the first time that I got it out. I scored it on a major sale but just haven't had a chance to wear it. I always say why wait for a special occasion?  What I love most about this dress is the neckline. I tell you all the time that it's hard for me to wear a straight skirt or dress and this is no exception. I like the look of it but I do think I'll spend a few more dollars and have it tailored a little more. I paired nude pumps...

Sunday Style: JJ’s House

Image
It’s been said in various ways that clothes don’t make the person, the person makes the clothes. I believe this to be exceptionally true in this beautiful dress that I am wearing in today’s post! This dress literally made me wish that I was heading out to the opera or a benefit dinner. I love that I get to wear and model a lot of clothes and some just feel more special than others. This dress was custom made for me so I got all the feels while I was zipping it up and looking in the mirror. It fits like a glove and I could not be more in love with it!  Let’s talk about  JJ’s House  for a minute. They have all sorts of dresses for special occasions, including bridal wear! I picked out a dress and did my measurements and sent them in with my order. They even called me once to make sure that my measurements were correct so they made sure to make the dress correctly!  This  dress  has gorgeous nude tulle with a black lace overlay. I literally felt like a princes...
