Good Morning readers, I hope you’re all having a wonderful week so far despite the frigid cold! It’s been so hard to get up in the morning lately because I never feel like leaving my warm bed, but I’m at least thankful that I finally get to wear my cozy sweaters like this pink one from Sincerely Luxe boutique in New Orleans. I’ve been waiting to put my extra warm sweaters to use all season long.  Now if we could just get some snow! Just kidding!

As you can see here, I styled the sweater and winter white pants two different ways just by changing up the accessories. However, I’m sure you noticed that I still managed to include leopard print with both looks. I just love how leopard print pairs with pink and I also love how chic leopard print looks with winter white so this outfit makes for a triple win!  What do you think? Would you wear white pants in the winter? How would you wear them?

About the boots & flats: If you have never tried a pair of Yosi Samra flats, I highly recommend that you do! They are the most comfortable flats I own and they they fold right in half to keep in your purse when your heels do you in. I got my first pair of Yosi Samra foldable flats during New York Fashion Week and they were lifesavers when it came to running all over town in my heels. I kept them in my purse and would pull them out when we had to walk long blocks. Knowing how amazing their flats feel, I wasn’t at all surprise when I slipped on a pair the Liberty boots and instantly fell in love. The soles have so much cushion and the boots still have plenty of room for thicker socks in the winter.

All Clothing & Accessories are from H&M Shreveport 

Good Morning readers, yesterday I had the honor and pleasure of hosting the Grand Opening of H&M at Mall St. Vincent in Shreveport with Krystal from A Pinch of Lovely. We had so much fun picking out our favorite pieces of clothing and accessories and interacting with all of the guests waiting in line via social media. We even held a social media contest where we asked all of the people waiting in line to post a #selfie using the hashtag #HMlovesShreveport. Five #selfie winners received H&M gift cards and got early access to shop the store before they opened the doors to the public at noon.  I took a few selfies of my own in the dressing room to show everyone some sneak peeks before the store opened! Everyone’s favorite look seemed to be the fuzzy pink sweater with the faux fur vest and floppy hat so I chose that look for the event!  If you don’t have an H&M nearby, you can find all of these pieces online at hm.com
