How to Style: J Crew Chateau Parka
SHOP THE LOOK
8. Rollerball Trio: Estee Lauder // 9. Boots: Hunter
This is my favorite coat. And, if you might have noticed that red and leopard, paired simply with a turtleneck and jeans is what I like to wear (as seen here). These leopard booties are $60 off right now. And, if you are looking for a lower, chunkier heel - these are the same leopard print. Plus, all boots and pumps are up to 50% off at Nine West right now.
I would like to thank you all for reading!
And, if you would like to help me out - my goal this year is to have 1K Bloglovin' followers. Thank you to all that follow me!
Have a great weekend!

How to Wear Red
SHOP THE LOOK
These are two of my favorite looks (photos credit: J. Crew). I love the pop of red in a jacket and the leopard pumps. Plus, jeans are my daily uniform. Layering takes me back to my college days - the days of layering a turtleneck and a button down shirt under a J. Crew sweater.
And, if you are like me - a female business person - and are always looking for good advice - you might enjoy reading what these ladies are saying.
Lastly, as we all run around busy, continually checking our phones, doing work, trying to get ahead - this quote from Warren Buffet struck me. We need to spend more time just sitting and thinking.
"I insist on a lot of time being spent, almost every day, to just sit and think. That is very uncommon in American business."

10. Mug: Amazon // 11. Parking: Amazon // 12. Stupid Alert: Amazon
10. Mug: Amazon // 11. Parking: Amazon // 12. Stupid Alert: Amazon
White elephant gift exchanges are one of my favorite things. I always make it my goal to find a gift that will get the most laughs. I bought this tee a few years ago - and people cracked up and kept "stealing" it away from others - just so they could keep it. Also, you may not know when this emergency kit may come in handy.
GUY GIFT IDEAS
1. Gloves: HONN // 2. Portable iPhone Speaker: Bose
3. Reciprocating Saw: Black & Decker ($50 on sale)
4. Mr. Perfect Mug: WILD AND WOLF // 5. Wrench Set: Stanley ($24 on sale)
6. Quarter Zip Sweatshirt: BOSS Hugo Boss ($20 option)// 7. Noise Canceling Headphones: Bose
8. Moccasin Slipper: Nordstrom // 9. Compact Table Saw: Ryobi ($82 on sale)
My husband loves doing projects around the house - so some of the best Christmas gifts have been a table saw and reciprocating saw. As far as clothes, he lives in his quarter zip sweatshirts (another option under $20) in the fall/winter. He layers them over dress shirts and polos.
