So Long Winter Wear!

Today we’re saying to so long to turtlenecks, over the knee boots and pretty much all winter wear because even though spring hasn’t officially arrived, it basically feels like it has in Louisiana. I actually just made the switch from fall/winter to spring/summer in my closet last night. I boxed up all of my sweaters, boots, outerwear and cold weather accessories in large clear containers and stored them away in a separate closet. However, I did leave out this lightweight jacket for styling easy transitional looks.

Stylish Winter Outerwear

January 12, 2016

Hi everyone, I’ve been saving some of my stylish outerwear looks from New York for extra chilly days like today when you realize that you need more than a light jacket here in Louisiana. This is actually a fairly lightweight trench coat, but I’m wearing a super chunky cable knit sweater beneath it. It’s the perfect balance for me because I’m super petite and don’t like feeling short and stocky in bulky outerwear. To avoid looking like a little a like winter Oompa Loompa, I balance out my layers with warm and cozy to lightweight and breathable. That’s another thing! I can’t stand feeling overly warm to the point where I want rip everything off so I like to make sure that some of my layers include breathable fabric.
