Sequins and Sea Breezes: Zippers & Houndstooth

Zippers & Houndstooth

1/08/2015


Brrr it's chilly outside today! I was starting to get used our upper 70's, low 80's so this high of mid 50's is definitely throwing me off! Hopefully it's not freezing in the office today but that's what sweaters and blankets are for, right? Although I won't complain about the cooler temperatures for a day or two because it means I get to break out the thigh high boots and cozy sweaters!


This sweater isn't overly thick but it's great for layering and I love the cute zipper detail on the side! The high-low hem makes it perfect for wearing in the office too since you don't have to worry about getting a draft in the back. Our office is pretty casual (gotta love Florida!) so I paired this sweater with a pair of comfy jeans and topped off my look with my favorite over the knee boots. These boots are sure to keep my feet and legs warm all day, and I don't know about you, but when my feet are warm the rest of me tends to not get as cold! Hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday!


sweater: express {on sale!} / jeans: hollister co {on sale!} / boots: target / necklace: loft {old, similar here} / purse: michael kors / lips: mac in dangerous

  4. The zipper detail on that sweater is perfect! I always love the look of long tops paired with skinnies and boots. You just can't go wrong! Stay warm. It's getting down to 0 {with the wind chill} here and that's super cold for NC. Stay warm, lady!
