Leopard Fur Jacket + Black Leather Leggings

SHOP THE LOOK

1. Camisole Top: H&M // 2. Star Earrings: Kate Spade // 3. Faux Leather Leggings: H&M

4. Leopard Coat: H&M (Similar here under $30) // 5. Lipstick: Tom Ford

6. Bag: Gucci (Similar under $25) // 7. Pumps: H&M

I don't know about you - but I do not go to a lot of dress-up Christmas or NYE parties - so finding pieces that I can mix and match and wear later in my everyday life are best for me.  And, with this look, all of these pieces worn together create a festive party look - but can easily be incorporated into a more casual everyday outfit.

Also, other than the Gucci bag, which I found a similar one for a lot less here, everything is budget-friendly, like these $35 pumps that look just like the Christian Louboutin ones.

What I Bought + Most Popular Gift Ideas

Happy Friday!

Today, I thought I would share some of my most popular items - along with some things I have bought recently - as inspiration for gift ideas - as you start your shopping.

MOST POPULAR ITEMS

This striped sweater on sale for under $20.

This popular cozy fleece teddy bear coat. (Sizing note: I tried it on - it runs big, you can size down and still wear it over heavy sweaters.)

This $25 floral dress that looks great with suede boots.

This cardigan that comes in four great colors.

This jacquard-knit sweater that I want to buy.

ITEMS I BOUGHT IN NOVEMBER

This rolled turtleneck sweater that comes in five colors.

This classic and soft black turtleneck sweater.

This is my go-to turtleneck to wear under jackets. I stock up during the NSALE - it is a great buy.

This fuzzy fur jacket - that I know I will get a lot of wear out of.

This is a very similar fuzzy coat that is a third of the cost of the one listed above.

I bought this fuzzy sweater; however, the first time I received it in the mail it was damaged, the second one they sent looked like it had been shrunk - so I am debating if I should try it for the third time - or just give up. I love the sweater, though.
