If you follow me on Instagram, and more specifically, if you follow me on Instagram stories, you know I wear these shoes every single day. They’re so comfortable, and I’m obsessed with the pop of red the laces give. When I bought them, they actually had regular & boring grey laces. The shoe is so neutral so I thought it would be fun to add some color – and Amazon has tons of colorful {& inexpensive!} colored lace options that I indulged in both red & cobalt options. The bright laces gave the shoes the little bit of extra life that they needed and I’m absolutely in love with how they turned out! Best $3 purchase ever 🙂 Another item on heavy rotation this winter is this tie sleeve sweater. I like this sweater more than others for several reasons. First and foremost, the material of the sweater makes the peplum sleeves feel a little more stiff, making it easy to write, eat, and go about your daily life without the sleeves getting in the way of everything. Second thing I love about this sweater also goes back to the material – its so cozy and soft & plump {does that even make sense? can a sweater be plump?} But it’s just perfectly thick without being overbearing. It’s just perfect. Last but not least, the sweater is listed as ‘oversized’ and it is. It’s perfectly oversized with a hi-lo hem that covers the tush. win/win/WIN.
Currently wearing a version of this look as I type this! Heading out to run Christmas errands – tis the season!! Happy almost Friday y’all! <3
