How To Wear Sneakers During The Holidays With Hush Puppies

Hi everyone, I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and ate plenty of stuffing and turkey followed by Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping. Speaking of shopping, the holiday season is officially here, which means we’re all about to run around like chickens with their heads cut off trying to prepare for holiday parties, Christmas day and of course gifts under the tree. I don’t know about you, but I like to be pretty comfortable when I’m running errands all day. Unfortunately, we can’t wear our pajamas while shopping in public so I like to wear the next best thing: jeans and sneakers! With that being said, today I’ve partnered up with Hush Puppies to show you how to wear sneakers during the holidays. However, you don’t have to stop at the holidays, you can wear these Ekko Gwen sneakers year round! They’re super comfortable and the taupe color is very flattering to the legs. I styled them with jeans in the photos below, but they also look great with leggings, faux leather pants and of course shorts, but unless you live in the south like me, you probably won’t be wearing them with shorts during the fall and winter. My casual style is a mix of cardigans, utility jackets, jeans, leggings and cozy sweaters paired with sneakers or booties. What’s your casual?

Hush Puppies footwear has been around since 1958, and has been leading the casual and comfortable revolution ever since and trust me, they definitely live up to their comfy expectations. I also love how they have a mix of styles that won’t make you sacrifice comfort for style. Most of their shoes can be dressed up or down. I also own these booties in the smoke suede.

Good Afternoon readers, I am so excited to share this travel style look from one of the most amazing new boutiques in Lafayette, Louisiana. Yes, I am talking about Amor! In case you aren’t from around here, let me fill you in on the whole boutique deal…..Sweet southern customer service and exclusivity is what shopping in Louisiana is all about! Since, there is a lack of department stores here in Louisiana, fashionable women thrive on local boutique shopping. Most boutique owners as well as their employees call all of their customers by name and know exactly how to dress and style them. They even keep track of who bought what and where that customer plans to wear it to in order to do their best to help women avoid wearing the same outfit as someone else to the same event.

Even though Amor is new to town, I know it won’t be long before it’s named as one of the “hautest” places to shop. I know this because the owners already run two very successful boutiques in Baton Rouge, Love and Eros!  Plus Amor carries all of your/my favorite lines of denim, sweaters, boots and dresses and not to mention that they have top quality customer service!

The sweet girls at Amor helped me pick out this outfit to show you the perfect “home for the holidays” look! Doesn’t get much better than a cozy cardigan, distressed denim and ankle boots. Right? It’ll take you from traveling all day by car/bus/train/plane/ and then out to get togethers with friends and family tonight. I hope you all have safe travels to wherever you’re headed for Thanksgiving!
