Dress c/o: Sheinside | Vest: Forever 21 (similar here) | Heels (similar here): Nordstrom | Necklace: Groopdealz | Tights: Francesca's Boutique | Purse: Forever 21 (similar here)

Hello!

So sad the weekend is already over, but hey, one more day towards Christmas and family time!

This lovely Green Three Quarter Length Sleeve Gathered Pleats Dress has simple become a favorite of mine for the holiday season. I may have worn this for 3 Christmas parties already, but can you blame me?! I dressed it up 3 different ways and I just love how simple it is, yet how much I can do with it.

And, lets talk about these shoes. I am not a pink girl, but pink sure is growing on me. Loving the gold chunky heel that comes along with it.

Have a great Monday!

Boot Heaven featuring Ariat Boots

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Ariat.

Top: Forever 21 | Vest: Cotton On (similar here) | Skirt (old): Target (Similar here & here) | Tights: Francesca's | Boots c/o: Ariat

 Have you heard of Ariat Boots? Well, you have now! Ariat Boots are the best of the best due to being driven by world class design, innovation and technology. Looking through their boots online, I feel inspired. These boots are gorgeously designed through their classic equestrian heritage, making these (and all their other boots) classically timeless and beyond perfect. Wardrobe staple anyone? (duh, obviously).

I have never owned a pair of real leather boots until now (don't judge me, sheesh). The feel and smell of these leather boots was a whole new experience for me. Christmas came early this year people! The quality of these boots is spectacular. Spectacular as in, they seriously fit like a glove and I can tell you this is not a common occurrence. These were made for me, a gift from heaven. Boot heaven (there is such a thing, I know it)!

I paired my Stanton H2O boots with something a little more on the girly side.  A simple skirt, leggings and layering were my go-to. These boots are so great because as shown, I wore them with a skirt or if you are not a skirt type of gal, you can definitely pair them with jeans or leggings. The possibilities are endless! Riding boots are a staple for all year around! I highly suggest checking Ariat out! I think you deserve boots from heaven too! :)

Now that you are dying to get a pair, Ariat is giving you the chance to win a pair! See giveaway details below!

Starting out this week with an outfit from one of my favorite new boutiques. Annie Jean Apparel is an online boutique and has just about everything. When I say everything, I mean shirts, sweaters, cardigans, leggings, and the cutest accessories (obviously, look at my adorable scarf!) Along with these leggings I am wearing, they have the CUTEST patterns (camo, aztec, basics, seriously everything). So many adorable options.

Let's talk about this tee. Everyone says, "leggings are not pants". Since I am tall, I have been searching and searching for a basic tee that I can layer and wear with leggings that covers my bum. Well, look what I found! Annie Jean has the best basic tees EVER. This one is the perfect length. I will definitely be stocking up on the other colors ASAP!

To make this even better, we are starting out the week with a GIVEAWAY! Yay! Annie Jean Apparel is giving one of YOU $50 to buy an outfit as cute as mine! Go enter below and remember: the more you do, the more entries you get. GOOD LUCK!!

Fall Layering

Tunic: Cotton On, Vest: Cotton On, Leggings: Nordstrom, Boots (similar): Styles For Less, Purse: Target

Friday is here again. Can you believe that it is almost November?! When things are busy, time doesn't joke around. Today I wanna talk about layering. I realize everyone knows how to layer, but let's talk about it anyways.

Here is my go. I can't just wear a sweater and jeans and call it good. I am a three/four piece layering kinda girl. I am not judging anyone if they have simple layering style, BUT I do have a challenge for you. I want you to add. Add a third piece or even a fourth piece. Add scarves, vests, beanies, boot socks, anything. Add, add, add!!!!! This is about as simple as it is going to get with me.

Hope you have a great weekend. PS. All you bloggers out there. If you did not get an email from me and would like to participate in the Bloggers Give Back event, please email me. Click Bloggers Give Back button below to check out the website and see what it is all about. 

PSS. If you are not a blogger, please donate! Even if you can only afford $1. Click link below.
