This or That: Heels

I am not going to lie - if I had $1095 to spend on a pair of shoes, I would pick the Christian Louboutin ones. (Although, part of me feels that I would still think that is a ridiculous amount of money for something that can easily be ruined.)  Minus the red sole and the closed toe - these Ann Taylor pumps are a great alternative.  The Ann Taylor ones are on sale - an additional 50% off the sale price (currently at $50); however, earlier in the week they were 65% off - making them $42! (Plus, they come in the color of the year - marsala - and a gray.)

Winter Day





Shop My Look:
Jacket: Victoria's Secret (similar here, here or combo here)
Vest: Last Call Neiman Marcus (similar here, here or here)
Sweater: Halogen (last seen here or here)
Beanie: BP. (last seen here)
Cords: J Brand (similar here) (last seen here)
Socks: Nordstrom
Boots: Hunter (last seen here)
Lipstick: Nars (Heat Wave)

 This look is a mixture of sporty and dressy, which is the trend (so, I guess I am okay).  My boots are a bit casual, but it was too snowy to wear the boots I would typically wear with this look, so I went with my waterproof Hunter boots.  And, it was cold, so I put on several layers.  I layered a vest over a jacket (and a warm sweater and long tee).  I like having a vest as a separate  because on warmer days, I can wear it without the jacket, and layer it on colder days.

My Look



^^ After trying to take pictures in the 15-20 mph wind gusts (and cold temps), we decided to head inside.  The rest of the pictures were taken inside a cozy, warm (an no wind!) building.  
As you can see, I am much happier inside...










Shop the Look: 
Sweater: Halogen 
Shirt: Express
Jeans: 7 For All Mankind (similar here)
Boots: French Connection (or here on sale!)
Lipstick: Nars (Heat Wave)
Watch: Daniel Wellington c/o


This look is on repeat.  I like cozy sweaters (like this cashmere one I bought during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale), and layering a collared shirt underneath to stay warm in the winter.  Also, I love my OTK tall boots!   I am more partial to tall boots because I think they balance out shorter legs.  This is my style - it is somewhat simple, but it is what I feel comfortable wearing.  With blogging, I easily get wrapped up in what others are wearing.  I look to other bloggers for inspiration, but I am trying to remember to wear (and post on my blog) what I wear. Anyone else feel that way?





Be sure to check back tomorrow - when we announce the winner of the $590 Nordstrom Giveaway!

Sales:
Piperlime: 30% off Denim (ends 1/20) (Code: GoodJeans)

Old, New, Borrowed, and Blue

Shop the Look:
Sweater: Banana Republic (Extra 50% off sale Code: BRSale - $39 on sale)
Boots: Ann Taylor (and extended calf) (Taupe version) (Extra 50% off)
Watch: Michael Kors
Cluch/Pouch: J.Crew
Lipstick: Nars

This week I am joining the friends I met through the Get Your Pretty On Style Challenges to share something old, new, borrowed, and blue from my closet.

Old, New, Borrowed, and Blue:
NEW: This sweater. I bought it during the Cyber Monday sales.

NEW: Tall zipper boots. I bought these for 70% off (the sale price) on Black Friday. They are super comfy, and I love the gold accents - on the inside of the heel and on the outside zipper. I definitely recommend these, plus they are still on sale (and they come in a taupe color, too).

OLD: My gold Michael Kors watch. I have had this watch for several years, and it is starting to show its wear. The gold has rubbed off underneath and the edges are silver, but I love the mother of pearl face.

OLD: Leopard pouch/clutch. On most days, I use this as my make-up bag, but it is great to use as a small clutch on days when I don’t need a large handbag.

BORROWED: I am borrowing this look from my earlier post this week. These are the pictures/setting I did not use, which you can read about here.

BLUE: The sky??? I am stretching here - other than “blue” jeans - I only own two blue items - both of them jackets. (And why I have one of them is a story for another day.) Blue is a color I typically do not wear, which is the same with pink.  I stick mostly to black, white, gray, yellow, and red - the orange-ish hue, which is trending right now.


Bloopers:
With the negative digit temperatures (and wind chills in the double negative digits), I thought I would share some "bloopers" from a cold day back in December when I took these pictures.  Don't let the sun fool you, it was cold and very windy.  I live in the flat lands, and I don't think there is a day when it is not windy (except for in the summer when it is 90 and hot and humid and you could use a breeze). The wind creates some crazy windswept hair pictures (like my mini faux hawk bangs).







 In looking through all the pictures, I did manage to smile in one picture. As you can see - if you look at my right hand - I had layered up for the photos - that is my favorite Caslon tee sticking out.  If you haven't tried the Caslon tees at Nordstrom - I definitely recommend them.)
