Winter Wonderland: Coat Edition

The weather is cooling down and you don't want to be stuck without a warm (and stylish) coat to layer with your outfits. These are our faves because of their classic and simple look. See below on some style inspiration and tips!




. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .


This double breasted coat is going to be perfect to pull together a classic look. We are loving it open or closed; wear it with your basics and look put together.



This is a traditional style and fit that will give your outfits a little texture. Dress it up and wear it with your feminine dresses or skirts or stick to layering it with your favorite denim. You can't go wrong here:)


 


It also comes in a chocolate color which is comparable to so many high end styles! You can't beat the price or style. 



 


We love anything with fur so this jacket is a no-brainer. You can throw this on with anything from dresses to jeans and booties. Too cute!





This style has been a favorite since we opened it out of the box! It's so warm yet stylish. Once again, you can't go wrong with the fur in our eyes. This jacket is perfect for the season.

Holiday Outfits, Cocktails & Ideas...Oh my!

Christmas Cocktail Party
If you are dressing up for a holiday party, be sure to incorporate lots of sequins! We love these looks below.

When hosting your own cocktail party, serve lots of bubbly champagne beverages!

Casual Holiday Soiree 

If your holiday party is a bit more laid back, go for a plaid inspired look. We are loving the plaid scarf trend for a warm and cozy yet put together outfit.

White Christmas Sangria

Family Holiday Get Together

Whether you are with friends and family, we like to have a fun, girly, yet festive option as well. We are loving this full skirt with a pop of Christmas red. 


This type of look calls for a classic cocktail with a holiday twist.


Christmas Mojitos

Cozy Holiday In

For the last option, be cozy and cute in your favorite holiday prints. Pajamas are okay if they are as cute as this outfit! This is a fun way to look cute while you stay in with loved ones.


A cozy night in by the fire requires a hot coco bar for everyone!






Extra Holiday Party Ideas

Make your favorite desserts and top with strawberry and whipped cream!




Make your own holiday props and set up a photo booth. Send your guests copies of your photos if you don't have an instant Polaroid camera!
